J & B and Peter,
I`m not familiar with the genre, but I`d say you nailed the "dark" feel on the lyrics ( there sure is something supernatural about those birds)- a great image to start the video and that no intro opening woks for me.
Yes, Janice does sound a little grittier than usual and that fits. Peter`s guitar work is stellar. Going back to turn it up on SoundCloud.
Robert
Robert I was very impressed with Bud's work on the video. Thanks for the nice comments. Peter

LOVE IT!!!!!!!
I've been listening to music like this for more than 40 years, and I could listen to music like this all day.
Intro is very different, but cool. Good write, and Janice has that blues sound nailed, just great chops!
And Peter is just awesome on this! There are lots of guys that *think* they can play blues, but Peter is the real deal, I love what he brought to the table.
BTW, that turnaround is the cats meow, just giving you a heads up I'm going to steal it at some point :P
Going to check out the video now ..... Dave Not quite sure how to respond to that - I've heard your brilliant tributes to Gary Moore and Roy Buchanan and feel a touch humbled (but I'll take those compliments!). It was a pleasure to play along with Janice who's vocal inspired my playing. Bud's turnaround was indeed an excellent piece of writing as were his lyrics. Peter

Hello, Janice & Bud, Peter
Great minor blues! Very traditional.
The heavy sound is really nice.
The effects of Neutron are terrible.
Janice's vocal is excellent.
Peter's guitar following the vocal is also splendid.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi

PB&J, This is another great blues collab. Bang, right out of the gate it smacks you in the face and says hang on for the ride. Excellent vocals and excellent guitar playing. The production is par excellence and a real standout is the ultra cool turnaround. Was Shigeki joking when he said Neutron is terrible. Say What? A really great overall sound with three highly skilled musicians showing their wares. Loved it, Tom

I think there's something in the water right now, as everyone has been really slamming out some amazing tunes lately, and this one is absolutely no exception to that. Probably one of my favourites so far that you guys have done. Great collab! I think you nailed what you were trying to achieve here, and then some. 
Cheers,
Ember

Tom, Janice & Bud,
I am very sorry I made a big mistake on my word due to my poor English.
I wanted to use the word of praise. I meant it as a compliment.
I wanted to tell Janice & Bud that the effect of Neutron is really wonderful.
In Japanese, we say sometimes "terrible" when it is too wonderful.
But in English, "terrible" only means "very bad". I didn't know that.
I should have used "amazing" instead of "terrible".
I was so sorry I gave you an unexpected misunderstanding.
Please forgive my poor English.
Bud's mixing this time was really wonderful.
I also love Neutron very much. I often use Neutron in my mixing, too.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi

Lots of folks posting blues oriented songs lately here, but there is certainly room for this one!! Great sounding track! As usual the production, audio/video are top level and Janice's vocal is as good as it gets! The guitar (PeterF) is outstanding! Thanks, Torrey Thanks a lot Torrey for the nice review, Peter

Holy Smokes! This is just so danged good - can't think of enough good things to say. To say janice sounds terrific is like saying sugar is a bit sweet. And Peter, I hope you had a fire extinguisher handy as the guitar work is smoking! Love that rundown going to Peter's 6-string magic and between the verses thereafter.
What a treat! Dark - smokey - and done to perfection!
Alan Alan Thank you! - most kind and appreciated. Peter

Alan Al, we just go home exhausted from a very hard long bike ride and reading your remarks is so uplifting we're ready to go do it again! Thank you. Bud

J&B,
I am not a fan of the blues but I am a fan of you. So, I listened to the song. I did enjoy it very much. I even felt familiar with the song as well as the way Janice is singing. It is probably because the quality level as music is very high.
Hiroshi
Thanks Hiroshi. Peter
