Wow, authentic ( =sounds like you mean it!) & with a nice hint of menace in the vocal. The guitar is terrific and that ripple effect in the video sucks me right into the spell.
Great collaboration.
Robert Thanks Robert. Glad that ripple pulled you in! We appreciate the nice review.

P,B,&J, I have been a long time fan of TJW. Here you have captured the raw,raunchy loose feel and sound that is the hallmark of his style. I also am a fan of all three of you and here is the perfect example of why. Great work, Tom Thanks Tom appreciate those comments. Peter

Janice, Bud and Peter,
WOW, you 3 redefined MOJO, great playing by Peter on Harp and guitar and superb singing, as I have come to expect, from Janice.
As Eddie Iceander said on Soundcloud, what a great way to spend 3 minutes!!
enjoyed , as usual,
Alyn Thanks Alyn. Holding anybody's attention in this day and age for three minutes is an accomplishment!  Glad you liked the production. Yep, Peter nailed the feel for sure and Janice explored some new vocal territory. Thanks again, we always appreciate your comments! Bud

You know when a song makes me ‘THINK makes me hear a message while interlocked with some great playing and singing I am in my ‘element’ I was in my element this morning with this song.

Thanks Paddy. And yes there is a message in the lyric -- don't jump through hoops just quit listening to the lies. Particularly in an election year We appreciate you listening and commenting.

WOW, that is some SERIOUS MOJO, Some MoFoin' MOJO!! (I think that will elude the PG policing system). Down and DIRTY. One of the "livest" productions I've heard on the forum. Peter killed it with his instrumental contribution (PG may be recruiting him), and Janice knocked it out of the park, over parks in adjacent cities, and may have gotten escape velocity to break the earth's gravitational field. SOOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOOOOD!! Take care. Greg Greg, What can I say...it was a privilege working with Janice & Bud on this. Thanks for the review made my day. Peter

Y'all deserve all the WOWs you've gotten and more.
A strong blues-rock write in anyone's book. One of your best!
Peter's guitar work and harmonica are excellent throughout.
Janice - you are a STAR, girl.
Bud - you've outdone yourself on this one. Production, mix, video... awesome.
Many listens. All enjoyable. Top shelf stuff....
fj Thanks Floyd - I was very impressed with the Bud's video on this simple but effective. Peter

This production is unique:
-Great swampy sound in general. Although I've never been I can see Louisiana in front of me ;-)
-Great vocals, as usual, from Janice
-Peter did a unique and very professional job on both the guitars and harmonica (at first listen I thought these were all realtracks ;-))
Bud, very nice video that enhances the songs atmosphere.
Rob Rob Thanks for that much appreciated.
