Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who mentioned my part in this project, and thanks to Peter for inviting me to sit in. This is the third time Peter and I have worked together, but the first time I have worked with Janice and Bud, I’ve been a fan of their music since the first time I heard it. The song turned out great IMHO, very much enjoyed working on it

This sounds so good on every level! What a wondeful job by each of you who participated and an extra thumbs up to the mixer(s) too. Really super impressive.

In a word.....SPECTACULAR!!!! Such a soulful, natural feel! Maybe Janice's BEST vocal ever (and that's saying a lot!!), Great contributions from Dave and Bud. AWESOME!!! Take care. Greg

Peter, Janice, Dave & Bud,
I could listen to a whole show of this music... You all should make an album...
Everything about this song from the vocals to the mix is simply stellar.
None better - I loved every minute of it!

Hey Bud, Janice and Peter.
Love this one. Always loved this song. I remember the first time I heard it was Gillian Welch. This is just great! Thanks Joanne. Our first was Mississippi John Hurt. J&B Peter, Janice, Dave and Bud,
Congrats on creating this excellent sounding tune! This sits in upper 5% of everything I heard at Showcase this year in my book. There is absolutely nothing to add except for applauds.
Thank you for sharing!
Misha.
Wow! Thanks for those kind remarks Misha! We are appreciative. J&B Hey Peter and gang,
This song is really great! Excellent....
Thanks David. J&B

Peter what an awesome collaboration. This is a very cool song. Love the reference to Janice's vocal bending the notes. What a very cool way to describe her vocal. Such a great feel. Nice to hear you Bud playing the bass. Very cool indeed. The real fun part for me was hearing you and Dave playing together. You both have very distinct playing styles and the sound so good playing back and forth to each other. Very cool Thanks Scott! We had fun with this. J&B Heavenly. I particularly love it when Janice sings along with herself. Terrific work by all involved.
Leon Thanks Leon. Janice does love to sing harmony! J&B

Janice, Dave and Bud,
Sweetly constructed tune . . . pretty sound, light and engaging upon the ears. The vocals fit so well—nice mix . . . and love those subtle harmonies on those last lines. And when that lead guitar kicks in . . . oh, my . . . great collaboration all. Killer stuff!
My humble regards,
Deej

This is everything one could hope to hear in a song with musicians of this caliber. An album should be in the works. The world deserves it. Enjoyed this from start to finish. Thanks Charlie - brought a smile to my face. Peter

This is a nothing short of superb production and achievement. Hats off to everyone involved, particularly Mrs Merritt ... stunning singing, like if it were something straight off an old country record (Tammy Wynette or someone like her). But well done ALL - what a team, what an achievement (loved the instrumental solos in between, too - this is what I call teamwork!). I'm late getting here and, as always, everything that I wanted to say already has been said. So all that I can add is WOW this is fantastic. You are all very talented musicians!
You all should be very proud of this one! Hey y'all, thanks we VERY much appreciate that! J&B Hi y'all,
what a treat that is !!!!
I may be the only one on this forum who didn't know the song, but I'm definitely one of those who think that this is just marvellous all the way.
Such a great collab of some of the most experienced forum members... Don't know when I last heard a Dobro (and then played so well), I'm a fan of your (Peter's) and Dave's playing anyway, finally had the chance to hear Bud grabbing his old upright bass - as dusty as it may have been: it didn't sound dusty at all.
Well, I've said it so often before: Janice, I adore your singing !!!!!!
So many fine musicians together - AWESOME.
And the productions sounds as clear and brilliant as can be - congratulations on such an outstandingly fine piece of music.
Regards,
Stefan
Stefan, your insight, nice comments and continued support mean the world to us!!! J&B

Wow - you all did a fantastic job here This is a rock solid collaboration. I loved Janice's vocals, and the mix work and instrumentation is gorgeous. It sounds lush and flows beautifully. You managed to completely modernize this tune despite it being over a hundred years old. You should all be proud of this one - thanks so much for sharing! Thanks Deryk - it’s always great to hear from you. We appreciate your time to listen and respond. J&B Hi Team,
Superb band all round.
Fabulous playing, Janice on top form as always and the whole thing wrapped up
in a tight and clean mix.
And it's a blues - what's not to like?
ROG. Good to have you back around Rog. We appreciate your support! J&B

When I was 18, I suddenly realized that blues was the number one music for me. I went into a record shop and bought a double album blues collection. Side one track one was Make Me a Pallet on the Floor. Never forgot it.
This track sounds like Bonnie Raitt with a passel of great SoCal session players. Excellent stuff! Wow! Did that ever put a smile on Janice! Bud This is everything one could hope to hear in a song with musicians of this caliber. An album should be in the works. The world deserves it. Enjoyed this from start to finish. Charlie, we really appreciate that. We both admire your depth of musical knowledge. J&B This sounds so good on every level! What a wondeful job by each of you who participated and an extra thumbs up to the mixer(s) too. Really super impressive. Great to hear from you and many thanks! Stick around. We miss ya! J&B

Peter, Dave, Janice & Bud,
Great performance by every one.
And thank you very much for the back story.
I don't know much about the history of bluegrass, but I now really understand it's your common musical roots.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards,

Hi all. As I sat here listening on my headphones early this morning...  ...all I could think of were superlatives...  ... which is fine because I'm not sure there are enough superlatives in the English language to tell you how much I truly enjoyed this. I went weak at the knees the moment Janice started singing -- it was lucky I was sitting down -- and I don't think that I'm fully recovered yet. In all seriousness, this is one mighty fine music creation and presentation and shines with professional competence on every single level. Can music get any better this? I'm pretty sure it cannot. All the best to you everyone, Noel
