    Beautiful song and do you all know that Dougie and the Butterstone community have spent nearly two years taking care of everyone? Free music every week and just lovely stuff.

    kathy and dougie compliment each other beautifully~if you don't care for their duet, feel free to vanish. i've met dougie several times, and each time he's shown me that he's a genuinely nice man, no pretense whatsoever, no "star-ego". i love this version, and applaud both Artists! i feel sorry that some cannot appreciate the effort, and talent of all there. so yeah, bugger off mr brown.

      Dougie is so refreshingly real...as Kenneth has said, no pretense, no glitz, just the real thing...he can write touching songs & sing them so sincerely...thanks, Dougie...wish you'd come to beautiful Kaslo, BC, on Kootenay Lake...we'd show you a great time & fill the Langham Theatre to hear you!

      To my mind, after these past nearly 2 years, Dougie is the kindest of men and an absolute hero. And Jenny and the Butterstone family. At first in lockdown, Dougie did songs every few days. When he started doing the monthly ticketed events, it was so special and still is. Bless them all.

    I had a comment about his Mary Queen of Scots song and the person handling it wouldn't show it because i mentioned that she was a Christian. This is wonderful uplifting music and comes from the true and pure heart of Scotland. Something wonderful there which can create a Jean Redpath and Dougie Mclean.

    Thanks so much for sharing this video--wish I could download it! This I believe is from Song Roads., and was filmed in 1996. I was there visiting Dougie, after producing his first concert in Alaska. Had a grand time with him, Kathy and both of their bands. I played with him at his home show in Dunkeld, and at the dance at Butterstone (there's a very brief clip in the video), where among other things I got to dance with his mum, Dolina. Also had some mad evenings with them. This really brought it back. I've tried to get a copy of Song Roads, but no joy so far. Would love to see it in general, and because there may be some shots of me in it! Cheers!

    Hey guys...just happened by here and I am seeing some comments below about Kathy Mattea. It really surprises me that some of them are unflattering. My guess is that those of you who do not actually know her are not aware that she is a very accomplished musician herself and she is only singing back ground harmony here. You should hear her solo at her best if you have never heard it. It is not a coincidence that they paired up..if you hear her sing you will see that their style is quite similar. Here is a clip of Kathy at her best. This is called Untasted Honey by the album of the same name. ua-cam.com/video/2s4upGyXc7M/v-deo.html

      That is Jonathan Yudkin, who was in her road band at the time. He's been a session musician in Nashville since then. Talented musician, plays fiddle and guitar, too. He and Dougie did a fiddle duet on "Flowers of Edinburgh" on an American TV show around the time this show was taped, and he was just as good if not better than Dougie.
