I love your originals and I love your covers. Always well produced and performed. And, of course this is no exception. Peter's guitar is sizzling and Janice's voice is silky and smoky. I don't know how you keep doing, but just keep doing it.

Hey team!
Nice rendition. Two spins - sound great! Everything works so well together musically. Amazing vocals by Janice. One of the coolest guitar lines from Peter I have heard. Bud, mix and production are stellar. Nice cover image! Thank you for sharing.
Misha.

Peter's lead guitar gets my attention, and Janice vocals makes sure I keep listening. And Bud makes sure that everyone - including BiaB - plays well together. Pro all the way!

Love that groove.
Everything y'all share is so well done, from performance to master production, always.

You guys always do such a great job with taking these old songs and putting a modern spin on them!
Very cool arrangement, and very different from anything I've ever heard before! Neat changes.
Janice sounds great of course, Peter too, excellent playing. I really like the piano too, works a treat.
Mix sounds great, Bud, as usual!
Nicely done you three, enjoyed. Thanks Dave Peter

Nicely done you three, enjoyed. Thanks Dave. It was an interesting arrangement indeed. We considered not going with it but decided have a go at it. Gotta wonder how it all came together in 1927. Gigging tune, studio arrangement … will never know. We appreciate your review! J&B

Great work on the piano track! Some good guitar work from Peter. An excellent mix from Bud. Perfectly delivered vocal from Janice. And a terrific find from the PD. Never heard the song before but it couldn’t possibly have been better than this, Tom Thanks Tom Peter Janice, Bud & Peter,

This is really a great one gang. Guitar got my attention right away, and Janice's vocals could get no better! I hate to be late to the party Bud, but I gotta say I really like what you did with that piano as well. Great sounding arrangements all the way through. Fantastically done folks!
Brad Thank you Brad. We are glad you liked it! J&B Old school, home-fried, hand-rolled blues at its best! Enjoyed every minute of this!!! Thanks man! J&B

Hi Janice and Bud,
Yes Janice, you know how to preach the Blues, that's for sure! A 'delicious'song with a nice lead in it and of course those fabulous vocals. And about the lyrics, beside the fact that they are very nice: I told you you always have to deal with mean men... How come? Enjoyed it very much, Hans

Cool piano, cool lead guitar, cool vocals. Or should I say hot? Hot mix  That piano surely has a live feel of a bar. Nice details like the drumless break and the slowdown at the end. You are the strongest preachers of blues on this forum. Janne
