Great piano sound. I surely was waiting for Peter's guitar. Of course it is wonderful to enjoy Janice's excellent vocals, but I certainly would have enjoyed hearing another virtuoso much earlier  But the end is really rewarding. "Ain't Nobody's Business with Janice Merritt on vocals" who can argue with that, at least on the same level as Bessie Smith whose version I listened after hearing yours. Janne Thank you Janne. You are very kind! Janice

I'm late to the party, again.
As usual everything I wanted to say already has been said. So all I can add is when I see those three names on a song I know it will be a winner and this is definitely a winner for sure.
Loved it.

Hi Peter and Janice,  I really, really enjoyed this. I loved the authenticity of this arrangement. In the 1920s, it's more than likely that this song would have been performed exactly as you've arranged it for piano and voice. These are the early days of Tin Pan Alley and pianos were really popular. Janice, your singing is perfect. I love those slide-up notes and the relaxed easy feel of your performance. Peter, when the ending came along and the arrangement time-travelled into the 21st century, you stole the limelight. Great playing! Loved the journey. All the best, Noel Thank you so much Noel!! Janice

Nice job by everyone! Piano only opening is just right! Thanks! Torrey Thanks Torrey Peter Nice recording. Good arrangement. Everybody performs well. I love how the electric guitar kicks in at the end. Nice touch. The doubling of Janice's vocals sound wonderful.
Good collaboration to all.
Give my regards to the BIAB piano player too. Thanks (will do). Peter

I've heard so much talk about "ear candy" that you when you hear something like, you realize a seven course meal when you get one. You know that meal that's SO good that your one serving wasn't enough, so you go back for seconds, then thirds. Yeah that.
Expected and delivered.
At this point, is this even hard for you three? Not joking.

Hi Peter and Janice,
That song is a successful cooperation between the both of you. Very nice indeed.
Those beautiful vocal(s) and guitar, but also the saloon piano were superb!
I wouldn't mind if that had stayed this way the whole song, so the playing of the rest of the band in the second part came as a surprise. Not a bad surprise though.
And Janice, I am also not surprised you don't care what people might say about you. These lines are written for you, so to say.
I enjoyed it,
Hans

A good breath of modern bringing this oldie to life!
As always love the vocals.
Some hot guitar action to boot.
Arrangement and mixing all spot on.

moto Thank you! And, yes, Peter’s outro was special. Janice Standing ovation. Janice, what on Earth is going on with your voice? I thought it couldn't get any better, and now - both in "Emerald" and here - you seem to have gone up yet another notch and broken a few barriers that no-one thought could be broken, in the quality of vocals, yet again.
The arrangement is stunning. Superb surprise at 3:45 or so.
Congratulations. Thank you so much. I love these old public domain songs! Janice Very cool to keep these songs alive. I had never heard this song before. Lovely lyric and backtrack. Loved the vocal Janice. Loved the piano supporting the vocal. Excellent outro Peter. Guitar was very cool. Loved the tone and feel. Well done. Thank you Scott. It was fun! J&B

Thought You Didn't Do Covers Janice!!!
Music is an expression that is a universal language, Never criticize anybody to harshly. They need time to grow but when they do, they do. Always be kind in what you say and do because the man upstairs is watching.

I just sat back in my chair and let this fabulous rendition wash over me.
What a vocal. Oh, that sultry tone!
I was wondering where Peter's guitar was, and then around 3:30, it comes in and kicks my a$$. Wow!!! I appreciate that! And, yes, Peter certainly announced his presence:) Janice Team, Sorry, late for the party. Excellent take on classic! Stunning arrangement. Peter, amazing guitar playing, outro shines. Janice's vocals and harmony sounds very powerful and natural. Bud, Peter super mix. Enjoyed it! Hmm, I think I should steal that piano  Thank you for sharing. Misha. I’m glad you liked the vocals and thanks for mentioning the harmony. Bud said that you will need Logic Pro’s Grand Steinway sound if you steal the piano Janice I'm late to the party, again.
As usual everything I wanted to say already has been said. So all I can add is when I see those three names on a song I know it will be a winner and this is definitely a winner for sure.
Loved it. Thanks! Janice
