The romance version of reggae was referred to a Lovers' Rock...this is really cool. Solid rhythm and that kick replacement works a treat with Sly & Robbie thud and bounce everywhere it should be. Cool guitar licks, cool vocal licks, cool mixing. Well done team. I enjoyed it enormously.
Thanks for the support Ray. We’re glad you liked it and thanks again for the thoughts on the drums/percussion. J&B

Late to this party! Actually, I had a listen on Monday, but that bass started rattling my ears, so I thought I should wait until my allergies cleared up a bit. Nice groove, love your voice, and the harmonies are cool! I'd never have guessed the organ parts were from a guitar. Exactly the clear mix that I've come to expect from Bud. Interesting to read how you've replaced the kicks with a cajon. It works really well here. I enjoyed several listens through.

Reggae blues, I didn't see this coming from you Janice's voice is perfectly made for reggae (also). Nicely swinging rhythm bed. Very solid arrangement and the organ and guitar solos are very tasty. Janne Thanks Janne. Not so sure we saw it coming either! J&B

Now that is quite the production with some very complex elements. Love the sound you all got on this one. Pete has again contributed his instrumental expertise and Janice her flawless vocals to make this unique and pleasurable recording.

Janice / Bud / Peter,
WOW! This is just great. I love the feel of this - you guys have a unique combination of things going on here that really make this song stand out.
Going back for another couple of listens...
Bob Thank you Bob! J&B

J&B and Peter, This is excellent; the vocals so relaxed and warm, percussion crisp and that guitar/organ effect so well done...and it really sounds like you had fun. Very cool.
Robert
Thanks Robert. It was fun indeed! And, yep, Peter surprised us with the "organ."

Top drawer track as usual - loved the vocals, production and PeterF's work. Nice treatment of an oldie, though as a former bass player, I would have liked a bit more bass. But it's a whole new genre - ReggaBillyFunk - so what would I know. Stay safe, Mike

Hi Bud, Janice and Peter,
Something different but a very amusing song. I think a song like this fits with the new times in your country. And...I like the double vocals very much.
Hans
Thanks Hans! Glad you liked the vocal arrangement. J&B

I enjoyed it. Especially the production chops.
I like how you find those old songs and update them.
Good work to all involved Thanks Herb ... there's a lot of good material in those PD vaults. J&B

An interesting and totally unexpected musical take on this, but the accomplished musicians therein were more than up to the task. As always the vocals and mix were cherry on this. Primo work!

Oh, lordy me, what a great sound. A very creative version of this. I once played this in a band but the girl didn't drip the honey like Janice does. Excellent vocal --no surprise there. Peter is a treat to any studio, especially mixed with a mastering mind like yours, Bud. Sweet honey! Thanks for everything! Bud & Janice (aka Honeydripper)

Janice, Bud and Peter,
Your raggae is perfectly fits the traditional bluegrass/folk tune. Janice's expressiveness is fully demonstrated in this song. The arrangement and the mix are excellent. Very creative! Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

Great, nuanced singing from Janice - as she always does. The reggae background is wonderful, too ... the guitar playing is perfect for this kind of track. I didn't know the tune (what's new there? haha), but the interpretation is top-notch. Production is crisp and clear to my ears. In short: a great job from everyone involved - you always set a high standard bar and meet or exceed it every single time. Well done!

Indie-Americana at it's finest. Respectful but very fresh. Clear as a bell mix that highlights every sparkling hit and lick. Really nice stuff. Thanks...that is everything we could have hoped for! J&B

Another great collaboration. Nice reworking of what I understand to be an old trad song. Nice vocals (I'm glad you didn't try to sound Jamaican - it is much more true sounding). Great mix. And, as always, great lead guitar by Peter. Nice job everyone - the band too! Thanks! We’re glad it worked for you. Having played the song in a bluegrass band it was both fun and interesting to try and take it to a place. J&B
