    Touching and thoughtful, these 16 tracks are tended with the same care Clark brought to his beautiful storytelling. [Jun 2019, p.111]

    There's a great live feel, especially on the more uptempo cuts. [Apr 2019, p.90]

    Earle has made a gorgeous tribute, every bit as good, maybe even a shade better than TOWNES.

    A record that’s wonderfully represents Clark as the songwriter he was without turning the focus to Earle and the Dukes.

    Across 16 tracks, the 64-year-old Virginia native and his ace band largely play it straight, and the album leaps with energy and celebration.

    What Steve Earle and the Dukes make clear with Guy is that these songs are old friends as well, somehow truer and purer today than when they were written by one of the masters.

    He's done his old boss proud. [May 2019, p.89]
