Another testament to you guys versatility. Top it off with all the feel and fun emoting from your songs; to the stunning vocals of Janice; the magic mix by Bud - This song has all the beauty of one of those "to die for" lemon meringue pies featured on the cover of "Southern Living" magazine. That is priceless! Thank you so much! Lovin’ that meringue pie analogy  J&B Hi, Janice, Bud & Peter !
Absolutely superb is this blues ! I especially loved the scat by Janice ! :))
Cheers Dani
Excellent song as usual. Great vocal as usual.
Everything is as usual.. beautiful.

Everything is just right. I always like what I get to listen to from y'all.
It is really easy to over play a guitar part on something like this. Everything is only there to support the vocal. Great job at doing that.
The vocal speaks for it self. Dead on!!
Y'all come back soon.

Hi there J&B.
I missed my chance to get in first, but maybe this song deserves one more comment!
FABULOUS.
Well, that says it all really.
Janice, you know by now that I'm just your biggest fan, but you're really flying here. Wonderful expression and improvisation, plus the humour shining through everywhere. Faultless.
And Peter, what a superb piece of guitar playing, soaring above everything. Loved it.
Yes, and Bud - your mixing just gets better and better old friend. This could not be improved upon!
So, a fabulous song and congratulations to all involved.
Cheers, ROG.

All three of you are at the top of your games. “One take” Janice embraces her natural ability. Peter shows off his complimentary skill and Bud showcases how far his production chops have come over the years. All three of you have spent countless hours perfecting your crafts and have presented them in this top shelf offering. An excellent listen. Very well done! Tom Thanks Tom. We always appreciate your support!!!! J&B Tons of fun y'all. Just love it!
Thanks!

Wow this is brilliant and to me entirely new ,Scat I had never heard of this.
Honestly no matter what you do and the way you do it, always sounds true pro to me.
Peter Guitar was a stunning addition, along with Janice's vocal and you Bud at the helm.
Another to set the bar higher for us all.
P.S. In a good way of course.
It’s reviews like this that make it all worthwhile. Thank you very much! J&B I had to stop by for another listen... I really like it... I think the picture of Janice is lovely but... I miss seeing your quote from Louie. Thanks for the additional spin! I’ll see if I can split the photos and get the Louie quote back up. J&B

Band-in-a-Box 2026 Video: AI Stems & Notes - split polyphonic audio into instruments and transcribe
This video demonstrates how to use the new AI-Notes feature together with the AI-Stems splitter, allowing you to select an audio file and have it separated into individual stems while transcribing each one to its own MIDI track. AI-Notes converts polyphonic audio—either full mixes or individual instruments—into MIDI that you can view in notation or play back instantly.
