Thanks also for the details - I'm not really familiar with spirituals, so it's nice to get filled in on the background. smile


Thanks David. Glad that false ending caught ya!

There are a LOT of blues and early folks songs that are derivatives of African-American spirituals. The Carter Family was shameless in ripping them off. We appreciate the listen.

Everything is so well done.
The arrangements and Bud's mix are top notch, Peter's guitar is magic and Janice's voice is a gift from Heaven.
Thanks for sharing. Christian

THE tastiest guitar Peter has ever played. Perfect.

Janice - At The Top Of Her Game. It is a CRIME that you are not a SuperStar.

The mix is GORGEOUS.

I would buy an album based on this one song (hoping the rest of it was THIS good).

Your BEST. Ever. THAT is a high bar.

(Deb says "I love it!)
("It's really good!")
("It's super good!")
...she just keeps talking about it.

Great album cover, too.


DAMN this is good!!!

Speechless, gobsmacked and all the synonyms.

This made us want to retrace every move we made for future reference smile Really.

If you were to, and we hope not, never review another tune of ours we could coast
on this post for years.

Thank you!!!

J&B & Peter,
This is a genre I know little about - the lyrics are a cool mix of light and dark told in down home language. Wonderfully relaxed and present vocal, Janice, with some perfectly nuanced feel from Peter`s guitar.
Very very good!

Bud, Janice & Peter, thanks you.


Well, thank you! Your thoughtful comments offer a LOT of support to these two former bluegrassers - makes us feel we might have accomplished something on this transition to Americana music. And of course Peter has certainly helped us on that a journey.

Thank you, too, for mentioning the description of the process and for such nice remarks about Janice’s vocal.

We appreciate it all.

the best guitar I've ever heard Peter play.

Can't fault the mix - totally pro throughout.

Loved it.

ROG.


Thanks Rog. You know we admire your productions and that makes your thoughts on our song even more special and appreciated!

Hi Janice and Bud...

This is a really cool arrangement. I felt kind of a "strange fruit" vibe for some reason. Then, once I read your remarks, I figured maybe that's why???

Really soulful vocal interpretation on the lyrics also.

I loved the guitar. It really fit well with the rest of the song's theme.

Thanks for posting it, I enjoyed listening!

What singing. Janice excels here, she really does. The colour in her voice ... the accents (another one on the word "awful" !!!). The band, too, is absolutely tight rhythmically ... a joy to listen to. Hats off, everyone involved.

Wish I was a fly on the wall when these things get produced ... I always used to dream, when younger, of being "part of the band" or something when top artists recorded (I'd be the conductor, haha!) - and THIS makes me wish I could have been part of it, somehow. Again, hats off to the ground.



You are too kind. We are old traditional bluegrass pickers turned blues / Americana folks through the power of BiaB and some great friends we’ve made on this forum. Now Peter? Well, this ain’t his first rodeo smile

Good question, I think I was using a variax emulating a Les Paul. It's currently the one plugged into my Line 6 Helix.

Singing is flawless.

Thank you Tom. Nobody tops your productions so it is especially meaningful for us to read your review.

You made a wonderful 'simple' song with such interesting lyrics (and the way you put them together in this song).

I had to smile when reading these lines:
"Well Mister Satan he got real mad
That ole devil got awful mad
Missed those souls he thought he had..."

I only want to lift out one thing; the vocals. Janice, you sang wonderful!

Stay safe,
Hans


Thank you Hans. We ALWAYS appreciate your thoughtful reviews and support!

P.S. “...home in that rock” may reference “honey in the rock” - interesting.

Thank you for sharing!
Misha.


Thank you Misha...Janice really appreciated that. Regarding "home in that rock" we've most enjoyed researching the origins of old spirituals and blues. It can be a fascinating journey!

Thanks Robert. 19th century African-American spirituals are an extremely interesting study. So much blues and both later African-American and white gospel are derived from them. Glad you liked it!

Janice, Bud and Peter,

It's a perfect blues.
The guitar is not talkative, but the phrase is great.
This song seems to have been waiting to be sung by Janice's vocals.
The mix is really clear.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.
