Hey you guys sound great on this one. Very sultry.
I like the line:
"I'd rather be lucky than good."
Pretty funny!
Enjoyed this one a bunch. Great guitar.
Glad you liked it. Tom Tom, Janice & Bud,
Great Jazz Blues! Great collaboration! You have a wonderful common language called "Blues" and I am truly envious from my perspective. Janice's vocal is wonderful ever on this tune. The true blues feel is overwhelmed from the whole voice and it is a masterpiece. Tom's guitar work is fantastic and outstanding. The mix is also exceptional. I’m not a blues man as same as Robert, but I enjoyed this very much!
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi Yes Shigeki, we definitely are on the same page when it comes to blues. I have complete faith in Janice’s abilities. Thank you for the kind words, Tom

Tom / Janice,
This is truly outstanding in every way. I love how Tom's guitar sounds like it's about to go off the rails and Janice's vocal pulls it back in.
Tremendous sound guys...
Bob Bob, what a cool description! Thanks so much. Janice

Over-the-top good. Music truly does not get better than this.
Everything about this is PERFECT. Little reason to parse out anything else. But... why not.
Janice - The. Best. Vocal. Ever. This leaves no question - You should be a STAR.
Tom - your guitar in this is hang-on-every-note worthy. Your Chicago is showing. Sweet.
The mix is I M P E C C A B L E. And just to be clear, here are listed synonyms for IMPECCABLE: flawless, faultless, unblemished, spotless, immaculate, pristine, stainless, perfect, exemplary; squeaky clean
WOW.
Just.... WOW.

I don't think I could put it any better. Love this one! Steve Thanks Steve, Tom Just a great blues song in every way, janice great job on the vocals, love the lead guitar and the drums just right in the mix.!!!! Glad you stopped by, Tom I love the blues and this is blues at its best!
If you would put out a CD of blues like this I would be the first to buy it!
This puts some of the new so-called blues artists to shame.
This is definitely a keeper.
PS- you all are not lucky you are absolutely good great!
Thank you Mario. Your comments are always appreciated, Tom

Wow - just wow. As people have pointed out, this is absolutely outstanding. This track has everything! I love the smooth groove throughout it. I love Janice smoky vocals. I love the lyrics. This had my attention from the first second to the very last. You nailed it. Not a thing I'd change here - thanks so much for sharing  Thanks Deryk for the wonderful comments! J&B

There's nothing I enjoy more than sitting in some smoky bar (well, they used to be smoky, not so much any more), sipping a scotch and listening to a great blues band do a great blues song. This hits that nail on the head. So much great stuff here...the lyrics are awesome, fantastic phrasing, and the performances are awesome. KUDOS!!!

Tom and Janice,
I don't know what to say about this. It's such a good listen.
Blues really sits so very comfortably with the two of you. From that attention-grabbing opening through every syllable of lyric and every note of guitar, this musical trip is completely engaging and professionally presented. I never cease to marvel at how talented the two of you are.
Wonderful music!
All the best, Noel

Thanks Noel...dunno how we missed your very nice response. Tom has been on a bit of a musical sabbatical of late so we're gonna bounce this one. His work needs to be around  He did such an AMAZING job on the entire production. J&B
