Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who mentioned my part in this project, and thanks to Peter for inviting me to sit in.

This is the third time Peter and I have worked together, but the first time I have worked with Janice and Bud, I’ve been a fan of their music since the first time I heard it.

The song turned out great IMHO, very much enjoyed working on it smile

This sounds so good on every level! What a wondeful job by each of you who participated and an extra thumbs up to the mixer(s) too. Really super impressive.

In a word.....SPECTACULAR!!!! Such a soulful, natural feel! Maybe Janice's BEST vocal ever (and that's saying a lot!!), Great contributions from Dave and Bud. AWESOME!!! Take care. Greg

Peter, Janice, Dave & Bud,

I could listen to a whole show of this music... You all should make an album...

Everything about this song from the vocals to the mix is simply stellar.

None better - I loved every minute of it!

Thanks Joanne. Our first was Mississippi John Hurt.

Congrats on creating this excellent sounding tune! This sits in upper 5% of everything I heard at Showcase this year in my book. There is absolutely nothing to add except for applauds.

Thank you for sharing!

Misha.


Wow! Thanks for those kind remarks Misha! We are appreciative.

You both have very distinct playing styles and the sound so good playing back and forth to each other. Very cool


Thanks Scott!

We had fun with this.

Janice, Dave and Bud,

Sweetly constructed tune . . . pretty sound, light and engaging upon the ears. The vocals fit so well—nice mix . . . and love those subtle harmonies on those last lines. And when that lead guitar kicks in . . . oh, my . . . great collaboration all. Killer stuff!

My humble regards,

Deej

I may be the only one on this forum who didn't know the song, but I'm definitely one of those who think that this is just marvellous all the way.

Such a great collab of some of the most experienced forum members... Don't know when I last heard a Dobro (and then played so well), I'm a fan of your (Peter's) and Dave's playing anyway, finally had the chance to hear Bud grabbing his old upright bass - as dusty as it may have been: it didn't sound dusty at all.

Well, I've said it so often before: Janice, I adore your singing !!!!!!

So many fine musicians together - AWESOME.

And the productions sounds as clear and brilliant as can be - congratulations on such an outstandingly fine piece of music.

Regards,

Stefan


Stefan, your insight, nice comments and continued support mean the world to us!!!

And it's a blues - what's not to like?

Wow! Did that ever put a smile on Janice!

Peter, Dave, Janice & Bud,

Great performance by every one.
And thank you very much for the back story.
I don't know much about the history of bluegrass, but I now really understand it's your common musical roots.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Hi all.

As I sat here listening on my headphones early this morning...



...all I could think of were superlatives...



... which is fine because I'm not sure there are enough superlatives in the English language to tell you how much I truly enjoyed this. I went weak at the knees the moment Janice started singing -- it was lucky I was sitting down -- and I don't think that I'm fully recovered yet.

In all seriousness, this is one mighty fine music creation and presentation and shines with professional competence on every single level. Can music get any better this? I'm pretty sure it cannot.

All the best to you everyone,
Noel
