Janice, Bud and floyd,
What a great version of a time-honoured classic! As I listened, all I could think was "Incredibly creative, incredibly performed and mixed to perfection."
Where do I sign up to your fan club?
All the best,
Noel

Yes, much enjoyed! Real bluegrass and very nice vocal harmonies. We will check out those bluegrass real tracks.
I've said it before, but I really like your website template, a very nice country touch in it.
Regards,
Rob

Cool version and mashup.
I thought that Swing Low was an old negro spiritual from the 1700's or there abouts..... but what do I know.
Yeah that was fun. Back in the day in a band we did an akapella version of that song that was absolutely blasphemous...... I shall not elaborate on that at all.......
Your version ROCKS.... in a bluegrass sort of way.
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.

I love Elvis' version of this, he has some competition now, very superbly done in all areas' thanks for sharing! Thanks! Yep, Elvis lead us back to the Blackwood Bros who lead us back to the Golden Gate Quartet where it all started. Wow!But then again, with these three names in the song nothing but a masterpiece is expected, and it sure is!
Mike B. Thanks Mike -- it was fun! Hi, Bud & Janice & Floyd !!:))
I really dig what you´ve
all done here !:))
To say it shortly: Terrific !!!
and....yes I am a II bass !:))
Cheers
Dani
PS: I like gospel music and
I hoped I could do Oh Happy Day
together with some others who also
like it but, the song is in fact
copyrighted ! (sic!)
Thank you Dani -- we'll have to do a quartet some time! Janice and Bud...
Thank you for letting me be a part of this.
I am so dang proud to call you both "friend". I love doing music with you guys! It is always interesting, fun and professional in every way.
Y'all are the best!
floyd Thanks a bunch Mr jane -- having you participate is very special indeed! B & J& floyd, There is a lot to like here. Janice=great vocal and harmonies. Bud = great arrangement and mix. Also terrific editing on the solos. That can be very time consuming. floyd=great bg vocals and mix. Mastering is nice and clean. The banjo sounds especially good here. It is always the loudest in the band. Ain't that right Bud? The ending is fantastic. A super job again by the three of you. Tom I will +1 Tom's comment and add a big Amen! Thanks and glad it worked for you!

Thanks you two and cool that you like the website. The hardest part of putting it together was getting the scanned map image to work. Bud Cool version and mashup.

Yeah that was fun. Back in the day in a band we did an akapella version of that song that was absolutely blasphemous...... I shall not elaborate on that at all.......
Your version ROCKS.... in a bluegrass sort of way. Thanks Herb, glad you heard the rockin' aspects of it. And thanks for not elaborating on the other version :-)

Hi J & B and Floyd ...
Our feet are still tapping ...can't get then to stop! Maybe it's because we're dang near 70 years old and our "Stop Button" is worn out! But, rather, we think it's the infectious melody and rhythm that keeps playing in our heads.
What a great song, performance and arrangement. All the parts work perfectly .. well oiled, finely tuned and running on all cylinders.
We have just one small thing that caught our ear as we listened. When the acoustic lead guitar comes in, it's a wee bit soft in the mix. it could probably be brought more to the front. other than that, not a danged thing to complain about. It was a fun ride ..thanks for the ticket! Best to all of you!
