Janice, Bud and Tom,
This is a really stunning work of art.
If this were the Olympics, Tom's 'heavy lifting' would definitely put him in the gold medal position of his weightlifting category. His lyrics, his arrangement, his playing and his producing are stunning. As I listened, everything about this resonated with me.
Equally, Janice's melody is an absolutely wonderful treat as it travels alongside Tom's harmony. It's ups and downs carried me smoothly and felt very, very comfortable on my ears. Like Tom's work, Janice's vocals were also in a gold-medal category all of their own. Every syllable that Janice sang was crystal clear and so very easy to listen to -- Bud, your engineering is superb!
Truly, what a beautiful song!
All the best,
Noel
Thanks Noel. My engineering was confined to Janice's vocal and it was a pleasure to contribute that. Janice much appreciates your comments about her vocal! Thanks for your support.

I'm late in listening to this top notch performance so besides quoting Floyd (I couldn't say this any better) all I can add is WOW this is freaking awesome!

WOW songwriting right there. A beautiful lyric throughout. A beautiful melody - classic sounding.
Everything about the production is gorgeous. The clarity of the guitar/fiddle/mandolin combination is stunning. An impeccable mix.
The vocal (needless to say) is flawless. And perfectly processed and sitting perfectly in the mix.
One of those songs that, from the first listen, sounds like you've known it all your life.
There is an amazing amount of high caliber music on this forum these days. It's exploding. You three are right at the top of that...

Janice, Bud & Tom,
Excellent, stunning, superb, awesome , beautiful etc -(but I think that's already been said).
I really liked this one from the first time I heard it. It's a lovely song.
A truly wonderful production (we are really spoilt here to receive such quality offerings).
A great team effort.

Thank you Peter and welcome back!!!

Absolute top caliber at every level. If there was a musical Olympics this collaboration wins all the gold medals. Heading back for another listen or two.
Thanks Charlie. We ALWAYS look forward to and appreciate your comments...
