PB&J, The Rhumba beat always breaks up a standard blues set with a little happy feel. My personal favorite for this kind beat is Robben Ford. Peter and Janice are locked in on this one. You can feel the fun. Y'all manage to unearth some PD classics and bring them back to life with a new updated feel. The mix sounds balanced and open and that singer is right at home in this genre. So laid back and relaxed. This is how it's done! Tom Thank you very much Tom! Great to see you back and hear your most cool productions. BTW, we also like Robben. We appreciate the kind review. J&B

Janice, Bud & Peter ...
Fabulous redo of a great old classic Blues. My father died in 1968 and he was the first thought that came to mind - not because of the houses of ill repute, mind ya! But, he couldn't say words that ended in "lm" wuithout separating the them into two syllables: fill-um for film, ellum-um for elm, call-um for calm, pall-um for palm, etc.
Peter's intro and outro were just so dang good! Perfect guitar tone and style for the genre. And as far as my ears are concerned, Janice can dance all over a vocal any time she wants. She has an uncanny way of expressing the emotion appropriate for the genre.
As far as lyric tweaking and production elements, it couldn't be better. A person can hear a song, listen to a song, or appreciate a song. The music you guys put up always deserves the appreciation factor. Excellent contributions by all of you.
Take care ...
Alan
Thank you for the positive, thoughtful and supportive review. It’s greatly appreciated! J&B

I'm not familiar with this song, but your version sounds mighty fine.
The whole arrangement is so craftily put together. With Peter and Janice here, you've got a winner.
Magnificently done! That is greatly appreciated! J&B

Thanks to everyone who commented on my part in the song.
It was as always a pleasure to participate.
I love how Janice brings these old songs to life. It's also just great fun to make music with them.

WOW you three did it again, hit one out of the park
Loved the groove
Janice, loved the vocal
Peter, loved the guitar licks and leads
Bub, loved the mix
I loved the entire song
My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not.

J&B and Peter,
I like the cautionary tale in the lyrics and especially the way that rhumba beat lifts the blues into almost a happy place.
Excellent vocals, guitar and production skills on display... of course!
Great revival work.
Robert Thank you Robert. We like your term “cautionary tale.” And yes the rhumba beat is quite the contrast. We appreciate your review and all you noted! J&B

Janice/Bud/Peter...
Y'all make every PD song you arrange sound like it belongs to you and you alone.
A very cool BAND. Nice percussion choice...
Janice kills the vocal. Would expect no less.
Peter's fills fit like an old, comfortable pair of shoes. Nice.
Excellent mix.
(Although... that crash cymbal jumps out of my speakers. By the end, it bugged me some.
Maybe it's just my speakers - since no one else even mentioned it...cymbal-hater that I am)
The feel of a classic.
Of course.

Thanks for the fine review! The crash cymbal is on a separate track so that likely makes it more noticeable ... perhaps too much so  And, yeah, these 100 year old tunes are a lot of fun to work with. Much appreciated! J&B

Hi Janice & Bud,
The rhumba blues style is well chosen. Beautiful musical construction. It's pleasant. Ozone and nectar are very good products for mixing and I can see the result. I appreciated. Well done.
Kindly regard
