Love a bit of a chuckle in the morning.
This is fab.
A VERY heavy boogie version of this song was big in Australia in the early 70s.
Well done everyone. Thanks Ray! J&B

PB&J,
All the stellar aspect of this hit you in a quick sequence.
The lead guitar. Oh yeah!
The drums! Love that snappy snare!
That bass. Pumpin'. Clean and crisp, yet fat.
That piano. Ahhhh...
Then last and by NO means least (most actually)...That Vocal!
An impeccable mix.
Cool claps.
Peter's lead is awesome. Truly sharing the stage with that amazing vocal.
A little bump in the overall energy around the 2 minute mark. Perfect.
One of your best.
Music. Pure and simple.

Janice, Bud, and Peter,
Just freakin' killer. Love the Berry vibe--such a sweet, rocking guitar solo. Can't help but tap the foot and rock the head on this one. Very cool!
Best regards,
Deej Thanks for the listen and supportive comments. Much appreciated J&B

I suspected you guys might jump on this one when I saw it was due to be released to the public domain  Nice take on it, I like the rock and roll approach! I've heard many versions over the years, but mostly as a blues both slow and uptempo. Man, Janice sounds great! And Peter totally nails those Chuck Berry type licks. Excellent job on the mix, Bud, sounds great through both the 'phones and the KRK's. Big smile on my face here, well done you three! Thanks Dave appreciate the comments. Peter

Nice work on this - a great groove, and as someone mentioned earlier you can't beat a solid rock n' roll tune. I love how fast faced and energetic it is. Thanks for sharing Thank you Deryk. Glad you like the energy! J&B

I love your version of the song!
Peter's guitar is kicking, and so is Janice's vocal performance.
Great production. Smashing all around!

Good ol' kick @ss Rock n Roll, loved it.
You had me before the intro was finished. Great guitar work, super groove, great mix, and, as usual, outstanding vocals.
My foot was tapping and my face smiling all through this.

Hi Janice, hi Bud,
WHAT A TREAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Especially for a guy who can celebrate his own "See See Rider" anniversary this year: I think that it was exactly 50 years ago that I played that very song publically myself for the first time, followed by many more occasions: Because it was, is and will always be one of my favorite American classics.
How good a song is can easiyly be told by the number of good versions and this one can really present a long list of famous names - you named but a few.
And this is the truth and nothing but the truth: You did not just do another cover, but really added a top-notch version to that list. The version you linked to is so custum-made for Janice - Janice, the energy you're putting into the vocal part is amazing. And the harmony singing - no-one can do that the way you do: just grand.
Looking at the 'band' I had to smile: Those Keith Richard styles have become almost indispensable for me! When arranging an uptempo song it's always a good idea to have a look at them...
Peter, great playing as we've become used to long before - you really showing us where it's at again and again.
Maybe I overlooked something, but I couldn't find the Chuck Berry version that I'm very keen to listen to. Without the existence of that great guy I'd probably be playing glockenspiel in a Bavarian traditional band.
Ah no...
Janice, Bud: Please do not let this genre slide: Both of you are far too good at it.
Thanks fir that wonderful production and all the best,
Stefan

Great balls of fire! It starts out the gate blazing and doesn't let up. Excellent vocals, guitar solo, energy, mix... that hold at 0:58 is such a great setup for the guitar solo, and the claps at 1:58 push into the last section. Fantastic job by everyone. I almost picked up the CLA toolkit at the last Waves sale, just because your mixes sound so awesome. Of course, the real "secret sauce" is Bud and the band.

For me it is like a new song. I don't think I know the original or maybe I just don't recognize it.
Anyway it is a fabulous song you have recorded here, very true to the Chuck Berry style which I listened a lot to when I was a child... that is how I learned about Rock'n Roll.
The vocal is wonderful, the guitar work great... and the mix is outstanding. Just a perfect track, like so many times before from you guys!
Will Thanks Will! We appreciate you mentioning the vocals and the guitar and the mix. Not something we do often but we hoped to Rock ‘n Roll. And your comments made us feel like we accomplished it! J&B

Great song! Great job, guys! Janice, your vocals are always tops. Great job on the guitars, Peter.
I got to know Wayne Cochran, back in the early 80's when I was in Houston. Was privileged to get to play with him a couple times. He was one of the pioneers of Rock n Roll, and his rendition of this song was an inspiration for Elvis to start singing it. Wayne was a fun, and crazy guy. He passed away back in 2017. This song always reminds me of him.
Really enjoyed your rendition!
