Great work on this BlueAttitude, this is excellent! The arrangement is wonderful to the ears and very soothing to hear. Adding the organ to this is a nice touch. Love the effects on the vocals. Thanks for sharing!
Cheers,
Joe

Dave,
Nice resurrection! I remember this. Christiane did fantastic work! So cool, how vector can change with idea from a different person. A lot of heart and energy in it. I like march-R&Roll guitar parts at 1:10. Overall great production!
Thank you for sharing!
Misha.
Thanks, Misha!

Very nice song and production. I especially liked the vocal performance... I'm actually a little bit jealous that you have such a talented singer to work with.. wish it was me!  Will Hi Will, It was actually Chris that contacted me, she wanted to work with a blues guitarist and asked me if I wanted to do some music with her after she heard an instrumental I had done. That was four years ago, I think we have done around 40 songs together at this point.

You guys just keep the hits coming...
Everything about this sounds good. No surprise there.
A solid rock/blues write. Chris' vocals are excellent (again).
Nice guitar work. The mix is superb. You make the BIAB organs sound better than anyone. The bass is even and punchy (what do you do to that?).
All around goodness.
fj Thanks very much, floyd! I normally use CLA bass on the bass tracks, sometimes Scheps Omni Channel. But on this particular song I didn't use anything, that particular realtrack sounded great just the way it came. Unless you are hearing something that Ozone8 added to the low end when I mastered it?

Where to start? Chris definitely has more of a rootsy sound on this...a bit of a different edge/phrasing than we've heard. Kinda sassy. It's great! As are ALL of her vocals...just cool hearing something different. Different is fun and good. That sassy sound brought an image to Janice of Chris and Mick Jagger dancing around each other singing a version of this tune And the guitar...man, we've run outa accolades. Your playing is simply sublime. Oh, and that's the best we're yet to hear from an RT organ. Love it! J&B Edit: Just read where you said first time for slide...really? That makes it even more special.

Dave/Chris,
Some terrific blues going on here—the bar will be up on its feet grooving to this one should you play it live. Really well put together . . . great stuff!
Best regards,
Deej Thanks, Deej!

Fun song indeed.
Mix wise I reckon a little more guitar on one side to balance the almost dominant organ on the other is warranted.
As it plays there's no real prob. at all. Hi Ray, I have the two guitar tracks panned opposite the organ, so not balanced too bad I think. I thought about having the organ in the middle and then panning the guitars left and right, but that's the way I always do it and I wanted to try something different for a change. Thanks for the listen and comment

Excellent production & Chris did a great with the vocals...
You guys always do a great job...
I really enjoyed listening to your tasteful guitar playing & her fabulous singing. Happy you liked this one, Jim! Very cool song. Love this backtrack. Great sound from the B3 track. Strat was awesome. Chris's vocal were so good as well. Nice to hear the slide as well. One of my favorites Thanks, Scott! Dave / Chris
Excellent vocal, nice lyric and overall production.
Loved the slide (very tasteful) and the "Hideaway" like break.
Wonderful blues - always a pleasure to hear what you two come up with.
Peter Hi Peter, This is the first time I've ever played slide, so I needed to work out the parts ahead of time. Much harder than standard guitar, for me anyway; I know you are a wiz at playing slide. And yeah, I was definitely thinking about hideaway when I did that little break

This song had a really great groove to it! I really enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing! What a tune! From the first couple seconds I knew I'd be into this. The groove is infectious and impossible not to move with, and the vocals are playful and really engaging. The whole tune just sounds incredibly fun. Definitely an earworm! Really well done - thanks so much for sharing Great work on this BlueAttitude, this is excellent! The arrangement is wonderful to the ears and very soothing to hear. Adding the organ to this is a nice touch. Love the effects on the vocals. Thanks for sharing! Thanks, PG Music guys and gal! Joe, not much on the vocals. Compression, delay, doubler, reverb, and vocal rider. pretty much the same as I always use.

Fun, fun, fun, rocking fun. I dig the RT organ along with your guitar licks. Yeah! Thanks for the listen, happy you liked it! Nice rocking party tune, great vocals and playing. Organ is bit too loud to my taste, but guitars sound great!
Janne Hi Janne, The organ is about 3-4 db louder than I would normally mix it, plus it is also panned and I would normally have it in the center. Just trying some new techniques instead of using the same mixing formula I always use. I'll revisit in the future if we decide to do something more with this song. Thanks for the listen and comments

Thanks very much Bud and Janice! Chris had a blast doing the vocals for this one, just fun to do something different. Yes, first time for slide. I practiced for a couple of days before I attempted to record, and even then needed to do some punch ins to get it sounding clean and tight. But, I really wanted slide on this one, I thought the song needed it.
