Hi Janice, Bud & Peter,
well that made it clear: Bud, you better toe the line...
Seriously, that's another awesome tune - there's nothing but a good blues shuffle anyway, but this one stands out. Again..
Love the write a lot, love the arrangement a lot. And again I'm a sucker for your vocals, Janice - both lead and background vocals are absolutely top-notch.
And Peter, I always enjoy your playing, but these solo parts are outstanding, marvellous, I think..
And like always everything sounds brilliant, Bud, crystal-clear, yet with the drive the tune deserves. Great fun, great listen!!!
Take care, stay safe,
Stefan

Hi Janice and Bud,
Are you already walking next to your shoes after all these compliments you have received on this forum (and -of course- in the rest of the world)? Well hold on, I also have some big compliments for your performance of this song. This very swinging, humorous song put a smile on my face. And that's a huge achievement (no, that's a joke). As allways the vocals are outstanding, but have I told you you sound a bit like John Lennon? ;-)
I enjoyed it all the way and beyond, Hans

J&B&P...
It has gotten to point of being hard to say anything that hasn't already been said... so I'll simply repeat...
As Good As It Gets.
Y'all just keep getting better (if that is even possible).
Janice IS a STAR. Period.
Peter's guitar fits perfectly. Nice solo.
And Bud's Bass is a delight!
Stellar mix. Snappy snare!! Nice piano, too...
Superb.
Ditto. Ditto. Ditto...

Janice's vocal = outstanding as usual Peter's guitar = outstanding as usual Bud's bass = outstanding = love that walking bass. Bud you should play more often. Mix = outstanding as usual
This is fantastic. If I heard this in a record store I would buy it on the spot.
You three are fantastic together and pro all the way. Keep those songs coming.
Thanks! It was a fun project. Bud appreciated the mention of the bass fiddle. J&B J&B and Peter, Love the lyrics-timeless attitude! Not being familiar with the original, I`d say this was written for Janice; a wonderful vocal. Everything works- great edgy guitar breaks and the drum sound is felt as well as heard. Fantastic revival work.
Robert Thanks Robert! It's always fun to attempt a decent revival of a 100 year old tune. Glad you felt we did it justice. J&B

Now Janice is surely deserving of all the accolades that have come her way, but dammit man she was born to do this! Some very tasty guitar work from Peter and Bud’s bass lines put the swing in this thing. I’ve got a feeling the old Kay is going to be seeing a lot more action now that we have uncovered these major contributions from the new bass man on the block. Super mix. The clarity is exceptional with everything is where it should be. This is remarkable music that should be on everyone’s playlist. Well done, Tom

Thanks for the music history lesson.
The whole band sounds great - excellent mix, clear and balanced. Everything sounds good, from the lead vocals to that hot guitarist you've got there.
Nice work on that bouncy bass line! The Kay bass sounds a lot better than their cello!
I really enjoyed this - so much I went played several times! It feels like a funhouse ride each time! : Thanks for the listens! Glad it all worked for you. Yeah those old Kay Swingmasters have a nice tone unlike many of their products - got mine 40 years ago. Did they really make a cello? Appreciate it all. J&B

Thanks all for the comments on the guitar part. It was an inspired choice by Bud & Janice to resurrect this old blues. Here is a link to the original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-FVFjbRfSuYJanice's vocal arrangement was brilliant and what can I say about Bud's bass that hasn't already been said! A great 1,5 1,5 !:) Peter

Yes, fantastic guitar Peter, yup fabulous vocal performances Janice and wow oh wow a fanmazing capture of the upright bass: it has the punch and thud I'd expect if I were at the front of the stage. Thanks Ray. Your support of the bass track is greatly appreciated! J&B

Great job as always, musicmaking at its best. I always enjoy the Bonnie Raitt doppelganger's singing and all the great ear candy around it. Doesn't get any better than this. Thanks! Thanks for all. The Raitt commented was hugely appreciated by Janice! A big smile over the morning coffee. Doppelgänger hahahaha! J&B

Listened to this little gem a while back. Love the arrangement and everyone's performance!
Nice to listen again after reading your production notes, especially interested in your drum treatment! Did you actually strip out all the snare hits from the realdrum track? Sounds great BTW.
Thanks Dave! See my email re drums. Glad you liked it. J&B

You guys have this blues thing together. I enjoyed the song and a good job by everyone.
I do appreciate that you take the time to find these old songs and redo them to give them a new life. Kinda like music historians and restorers. Thanks Herb. We do love history and restorations so as you mentioned PD songs fit right in. Glad you liked the tune! J&B

Fantastic! Everyone was right on the mark. What a great remake of a very old song. Vocals, instrumentation (including BIAB) and the mix, all top notch. Congrats to all of you. Thanks for the spin and comments! J&B

"You never get nothing by being an angel child You better change your ways and get real wild" I love those lyrics... what a good find you did here and it is a nice interpretation of that song. The lyrics are very much putting words on how I always thought the 20's were... wild life, lots of partying, experimenting, etc. Those years gave us dadaism, surrealism and many more interesting art forms. I wonder if this century's 20's will be a kind of the same, because we have Cuvid-19 and they had The Spanish Flu in the beginning of the decade... and I think people have been isolated for so long now that we all are desperate to get out and party "wild" Thanks for sharing, Will Thanks Will. Each year on Jan 1 as more songs enter the PD we search for possibilities. We were delighted to find this one and are glad you like it. Your take on the Spanish Flu, COVID-19 and what art forms arose in the 20’s was very thought provoking. Thanks for mentioning it. J&B

What a fabulous interpretation of a great old song. Had me doing a little chair dancing as I listened (several times). Peter sounds right in the zone, Bud's bass is right there with him, and I'll have to get out the thesaurus to try and come up with some new superlatives to describe Janice's singing. Suffice to say the queen of the showcase more than does justice to the uncrowned queen of the blues! (I'd not heard of Ida Cox so enjoyed checking her out, thanks.) Regards, Leon Thanks Leon. Your are very kind to say all of that. And, yes, there are a lot of hidden gems in the PD world...and the US adds another batch each Jan 1. We appreciate your support! J&B
