Hi,
You guys knock this one out of the park. The vocal is off the hook!!!
Keep sing like that and someone at the state capital in Austin will be sending you a Texas passport...lol
I really like 8 bar blues and the second I heard your voice I had to pick up my guitar and play along.
You got the blues thing going on girl!!! Really lovely stuff guys.
Cheers,
Billy

This song has got a very nice groove to it.
And definitely that J&B sound!
That 2368 RT sure works, we'll give it a closer look.
Janice's vocal rocks (as always).
Rob and Anne-Marie Thanks! Some of those solo accompaniment pianos have lots of short solo possibilities if you cut and splice them. We wanted something that wasn't overly "busy" and that was the best way to get it. Thanks again for listening. J&B

Love the arrangement of this. The piano and mandolin are a great combination. The mix is impeccable.
A good "blues write" - allowing the singer to take it right where they need to...
And OMG! What a vocal! Like Greg said, this is one SOULFUL vocal!!!
Digging down deep, girl! Gorgeous.
Wonderful, y'all...
floyd The expression on Janice's face was priceless as she read this! Huge thanks from both of us mr jane. J&B

This one stoked the fire. Great blues feel. Very authentic performance from Janice. As always, you have just the right touch in getting such a solid mix.
Charlie Thanks Charlie. Sometimes you gotta "dance with the one that brung ya" and for us it's either blues or bluegrass. We appreciate your remarks. J&B Very nice J&B.
Has a 1920's feel about it to me.
Janice's blues voice is spot on and the backing suits perfectly. Cheers. Thanks! Yep, we are a bit retro at times. Glad it worked for you. J&B

Smoky bar, some dangerous looking guys drinking bourbon, bartender with a handlebar moustache.....and the soulfull sound of the Georgia Chanteuse.
I like this bar.
Nice.
Regards,
Bob "The Georgia Chateuse" Now that is cool. Janice doing a piano bar thang. Your imagery would make a great project photo! We are glad you liked the bar, indeed. J&B "Soul Stealer"
Even the title is a showstopper.
Bud, Janice,
What a song. What a production. What a voice.
You're bringing down the house! That means a lot to the two of us. Thanks for listening and taking the time to remark. We appreciate you! J&B

Everything that I wanted to say already has been said. All I can add is this went into my keeper folder so fast that it left skid marks on my monitor!
Loved it!

Suddenly I realized how many proctologists are on the road.
