Noel & Janice,
Wonderful sound!
Very nice vocals and harmonies!
Wonderful lyrics match any genre song.
The blues of Janis are always wonderful, but these jazz-like songs are also very good.
Certainly, Doris Day.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi Hi Shigeki Adachi, It's good to see you (again). I hope that all is travelling well in Japan. Thank you for having a listen and for passing on a few comments. When it comes to this style of music, you are one of the forum masters! I appreciate the visit. All the best, Noel

Wow Noel, what a great treatment of this song! I really love that jazz swing feel this has and that saxophone solo was just great! The vocal Janice provides here is perfect as well as all of the production and everything else going on! Thanks, Torrey Thanks, Torrey. Really appreciate the comments. All the best, Noel

A great piece. The backing is as smooth and cool as the vocals. And the little sax solos bring just enough heat...kind of like Indian summer. Really enjoyed this. Thank you! Janice Noel & Janice,
This is a true delight.
It is amazing how many styles this lyric has been able to sit comfortably in.
A gorgeous production. So good you get lost in the vocal - and the background is "just...right!". Excellent mix.
An absolutely GORGEOUS vocal. Killer harmonies.
Out of the park.
fj Thank you so much floyd. It was nice to be invited to do this and fun to work with Noel. He did a fine job arranging the harmony. We appreciate you! Janice

Lovely relaxed vibe and great vocal plus I like the vocal harmonies in the chorus. The saxophone interjections are great too and overall was wonderfully retro. Thank you! Janice Floyd summed it up:
"An absolutely GORGEOUS vocal. Killer harmonies."
This is terrific- you guys really felt that style and it suits the lyric to a T.I hope you do more jazzy songs in future.
When do we vote on all the great entries for this forum challenge?
Robert
