Outstanding recording. Good use of BIAB. I love the electric guitars (real and BIAB - hard to tell one from the other). Great vocals. Great mix. Nice work.

Peter's opening is a delight. Soulful. The bass and the drums are perfect - beefy but respectful. (all of these comments apply throughout the entire 5:32).

The mix is impeccable.

OMG What a vocal. In that girl's lifetime of music, every note sung previous to this has been leading to this perfect moment. EXQUISITE.

Last note...heaven. Chills.

Grammy-worthy. (Not kidding).

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Peter's guitar playing is OK, too (just kidding, my friend - excellent as per usual).

My (now) second favourite version of this song is the one Ma Rainey recorded with Louis Armstrong, which features some lovely playing by him.

Regards,
Leon


Thank you very much Leon for the generous comments! And, yes, Armstrong plays some amazing horn on that track, indeed.

Misha.

P.S. I am sure Ma is approving and smiling smile


Thanks Misha.

Ray, thanks for those thoughts. Had we not recently done See See Rider it is unlikely we would’ve ever discovered this obscure write of hers. We tried to treat it with respect.

You should be proud of this one - thanks for sharing!

Nice to hear an extended intro - you don't get that so much these days. On radio mixes in
the old days, we were only allowed short intros, so the DJs couldn't do the talk-over on them.
The DJs made an art-form out of this until the BBC banned the practice! Peter's guitar work on this
made me think instantly of Robert Cray - one of my favourites, so I was hooked straight away.

Well, Janice. Whatever you turn your hand to you do SO well, but your blues in particular is always fabulous.
Full of emotion and that special blues timing, plus dynamics as well. In these days of compressing
everything, a lot of expression is removed from vocals, but this one shines.

Beautiful arrangement and the mix sounds loud and clear with everything working as it should.
Thoroughly enjoyed the listen and about to go back for a second.

ROG.


Great to hear from you ROG and we deeply appreciate your comments. Yes, I use almost no compression on Janice's vocal...been throwing a bit of delay in lately with the reverb (Waves CLA Vocals). Also use an eq setting I've used with her since analog days. We couldn't agree more as we feel that over processing just sucks the soul right out of a vocal. Thank you for mentioning the mix. We greatly admire yours so it means a lot for you to say that.

What a marvelous and quality performance by you guys. Top notch at every level and every element of the song...

The guitar is standout and is the perfect lead into the just-right vocals. This is so strong.

Enjoyed my listen and will be listening many more times. This song is a gift. Really. A gift...

You guys always put a smile on the face of your listeners. Also, the little extra reverb on Janice's voice is great. It expands the width of the track and gives it a crisp but not offensive edge that's awesome. Loved it!

Best to all three of you ...

Alan


Thanks a lot Al for everything and how cool that you noticed the different reverb on the vocal. Experimenting around a bit with Waves CLA Vocals. We do appreciate you.!

Janice & Bud,

This is just a killer mix . . . .everything pops, so clear and crystal. All the accolades above are well-deserved. Cool and smoky—beyond amazed at the artistry and production.

My very humble regards,

Actually she was facing a filing cabinet with a quilted table runner hanging down it smile Really.

Thanks for mentioning the reverb. This only the second or third song for which we've used Waves CLA Vocals after years of Nectar 2. The processing is minimalist...a very small amount of compression, some eq tweaking and the reverb. Janice selected which reverb to use of the three that the plugin has.

Peter's two guitar weren't comped. He played the two separate tracks (well planned) and sent them on. All I had to do was pan them.

And thanks for mentioning the mix also. The sparser the better for me!

Heck, thanks for everything you said!

WOW, another winner guys, there's so many styles I'm not keen on, blues being one of them, but man, I loved this. Janice, your voice is amazing and needs to get out there and teach those young eeejits how to sing. 10-10 from me on this one.

Outstanding work on guitars as well Peter

Lovely guitar tones and call/response guitars, Peter!
Long ago I heard Boll Weevil sung by a British folkie- this is new to me and helps explain the soul of the author.
Great work by all!

Robert


Robert, we love it when a song evokes a memory! She certainly had soul.

Thanks for the kind remarks.

I made a similar thing. "First Love" which is included in the album "Sincerely Yours" is the song I created by giving a new melody and arrangement to the poem "Hatsu Koi" (First Love in Japanese) by Tohson Shimazaki, a well-known poet and novelist about 100 years ago in Japan.

The blues is something I am not so familiar with, but I can understand your work is excellent and I like it very much.
Janice's vocal is really attractive as always.

Hiroshi

I'm not going to go into all that's already been said. I would be repeating from this thread, and many others pertaining to the craftsmanship you all continuously exhibit. I love hearing what technically skilled people who don't let the "technical" get in the way of what they do. Based from experience, knowledge, and a willingness to know the rules and bend them when it serves the song. The emotion is what matters. Chills.

That picture is one of the coolest I've seen on here. The blue, the vibe, the old signs...it all just struck me right. Is it weird to say the picture was a great set up for the song?

Well, it appears it took 100 years to finally get this song right. Congrats on a fantastic delivery from every aspect.

P.S.

(hi-hat volume shaped down 6db)


I very much appreciate the effort and notation of that effort.


We appreciate your thoughtful remarks and even more so as they are very supportive of our efforts. Thanks for focusing on the emotion. We were very much taken in by the lyric and story behind them and Janice did her best to express that vocally. Hey, also thanks for mentioning the photo. Folks rarely comment on SC photos. I (Bud) took that in front one of our outbuildings (we collect old signs).

Thanks again for all!
