Black Dust Blues Due to continuing work with Peter on our upcoming covers album we haven’t done our typical dives into the blues public domain this year (we have a 2022 album titled “Deep In The Domain”  ) Our most played blues rock song, Countin’ The Blues, is based on a Ma Rainey 100 year old tune so we decided to go with another one of her inspirations for this song. She recorded 100 blues tunes between 1923 and 1929 and is oft referred to as the mother of the blues. She was a remarkable artist and an amazing woman - well worth reading about. Yeah, we get it that blues rock ain’t everybody’s thing but it’s in our heart and there are, like us, some Spotify curators who feature Janice that love a slow burn blues rock with plenty of guitar. Black Dust Blues is in the public domain worldwide thus we own all rights to our version, i.e. it’s not a cover song. We created the melody, chord structure and some of the lyric but want to give Ma Rainey all due credit for the inspiration. The lyrics are on SC. We thank you, if you choose to listen, for your time and comments are most welcome. And thanks to PG Music and our music partner Peter. © 2025 Trad Arr All Rights Reserved B. Merritt, J. Merritt & P. Fulham Glossary: Hoodoo - not voodoo but a well defined spiritual belief system that was brought over by enslaved people and survives to this day in parts of the South - in Louisiana in particular. The song terms described below are from hoodoo. “Hex" is a synonym for a curse or a spell intended to cause harm. "Black Dust," graveyard dust or goofer dust is any powder used to cast a spell especially if harmful in nature.

Janice, Bud & Peter,
What an amazing version of this song! I love the raw edge that Janice has in this one, which is complimented by Peter's biting guitar. This song would not sound out of place on an early Led Zeppelin record. It has that same feel and tonality. I particularly love the way Janice is phrasing here. It's something that cannot be taught - it's truly in the soul...
The band and Peter are outstanding. And Bud, well, he just sonically brings everything to life. I also love the cover art!
Loved it all!
Bob

Wow! If there's such a thing as 'perfect' then this is perfect blues rock! It's my favourite song of yours to date. Love everything about it. Janice's voice is 100% as is the arrangement and the superb lead guitar. Very, very well done to all.
Some favourite Waoist Adages:
#1: Play on the Way.
#13: Ask not for whom the flower blooms, it blooms for you.
#58: Bring consciousness to it.
#63: On the road to effortlessness, effort must be made.
#92: Be Love Now, the rest will come on its own.

Bob Thank you Bob. We are very appreciative of your comments. We also felt Peter’s guitar bit … and soared. Janice smiled big time when she read what you wrote about her vocal. Yes! For us it is indeed all about soul irrespective the genre. We are happy that you liked the mix and the cover art. Bud grabbed a screenshot of Janice singing in one of our videos for it. 😀 Thanks for all! J&B

Always enjoy your takes on these old classics, and this is no exception, fine work by all involved! Peter is in top form, and of course Janice is amazing as per usual!
Love the turnaround, very cool indeed, and cool ending too. Nice mix as usual, Bud, sounds great through the 'phones.
Blues rock at it's best, well done you three!

Hi, Janice, Bud and Peter. Woweee! That's some burning blues! You're all in top form here. The Spotify folk aren't the only ones who appreciate the fan service blues songs.  Janice sounds great (of course), Peter's guitar is awesome (as always) and Bud, that mix is perfect (again, as always). You're keeping the bar high for the rest of us! I always appreciate the technical information. I see Wikipedia says at one point Ma Rainey toured with her husband under the name "Rainey and Rainey, Assassinators of the Blues". Now that's a name for a band.  Love your music!

I'm always up for good blues rock that's really atmospheric, and thanks to your glossary, I even know a little bit about what it's all about. Perfect work by everyone involved ![[Linked Image - Only viewable when logged in]](https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/images/icons/default/thumbs_up.gif) Coincidentally, I was listening to "Blue Attitude" right before this song. I think it's time for you and the Blue ones to go on tour together. Perfect fit!

Blues rock at it's best, well done you three! Well from a blues man those comments are even more appreciated! Thanks for the turnaround and tag mention. The tag was Janice's idea. We do enjoy seeking out PD treasures ... there is a trove for sure. Thanks for the nice review Dave! J&B

Janice, Bud & Peter, this is what happens when three outstanding musicians get together, mind blowing blues.
Janice never sounded better. She always sounded great but she really put her soul into this song. Peter must have burned is fretboard and melted all of his frets with that super hot playing. Bud's mixing skills really shown through on this song. Everything was perfect.
Loved it.
I get most of my exercise these days from shaking my head in disbelief.

And we gotta say that your really enjoyable backstories inspired us to tell more about what we were up to. Glad you liked the tech stuff. We always enjoy reading how your mixes came about, etc. And it’s cool you read about Ma Rainey and the band name. 😀 Thanks for all! J&B

Echo all the kudos from others..so polished in every way, and both Janice and Peter really shine..I esp liked the transitional phrase at the end of each verse..really adds color and movement. Excellent track and thoroughly enjoyed it

Very nice. I like how you find these old PD songs and bring them a new life. The mix is right in line with your normal standards and what I expect to hear from you.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Ahhhhhh. Is that enough to say to tell you how much I love this? Janice, the only song of mine my wife said she liked was one you sang. Bud, I think of you so much when mixing --I've learned so much from you, my friend. Peter, man, I wish you lived nearby. You would be such a treat in the jam room.
Ma Rainey lives in y'all. I am a BIG FAN. You guys are the top of my Spotify playlists.
