I'm not really a jazz or swing fan, but I like your song, I listened to it until the end, and I enjoyed it.
Both of your voices fit well with this kind of music.
Technically, maybe Carmel's vocals could be a little louder sometimes because in her frequency range there's a lot going on, but otherwise it's mixed pretty well.

Hi B.D. Thomas,
I think you may be right - I have manually adjusted the volume of her vocals in places.
Best Regards

Written & released just a couple of years before I was born...will I be public access in 2024? Hope not.
Cheers

As a harp player, it's very hard for me to hear anything except Little Walter's iconic version. But I love, love, love this! The interplay of voices was fantastic. Sax was wonderful. Great reworking of a classic. Is it really PD?

Hi Nigel,
I'm very familiar with this song, heard it many times by different performers over the years.
I really like your take on it, love swing.
Good vocals from both of you, especially like Carmel's (nice job on the sax also!)
Great!

Nigel,
This sounds great. Love the jazzy vibe. Vocals are excellent.
Also love the Elvis version of this song from his 1969 Vegas shows.

Oh, cool, Nigel. I didn't know it was public domain. This is one of the songs I'd sing and play at the same time in different bands. This is an outstanding version. Very creative. What a sensational band -- a dream band. The you and Carmel trading vocals ---totally superb. I with TuneMonger on the Little Walter harp, but this is truly a treat.

Nigel, this is a fantastic swing version of My Babe
Outstanding vocals by both of you
Love that sax

Hello Nigel,
When listening to your song, I thought I knew it, or at least it sounded a bit familiair.
My father was crazy about this kind of music and he played the records all the time.
Probably that's why I'm not such a great lover of it. I got an overdose...
But I like how you make these song back to life again. The vocals are great, from both singers (Carmel and you).
The band plays very, very good and everything sound so well. That I enjoyed the most!
Hans
