It is refreshing to hear a musical album that grows like an engaging
story, with a beginning, middle and end. Roy Douglas is a talented singer songwriter who weaves tales through vivid poetry and energetic
fingerstyle guitar playing. Sometimes Why, the song that bookends this musical journey, finds Douglas serenely humming over flowing arpeggios
and simply stating, “And sometimes why.” In between there are stories replete with colorful characters, conflicts, unreasonable love, hardship,
and acceptance. The Park Song inserts itself five separate times throughout the disc. Like a Baroque rondo,
it serves up the comfort of familiar music amidst the variations, while the lyrics drive the narratives of the songs forward. “You can get what you want when you know who you are. Youll find what you need.”
