release date September 1, 2009 Doug MacLeod is one of the few artists of today that know the strength of a good story. 'Never play a note you don't believe,' was the advice he got from an old country blues player he met down in Virginia, Ernest Banks.

It's about giving a hand to somebody that's having a difficult time, bringing people together and having respect for each other.
