J&B (and Peter and Bud):
Now there’s some stellar blues! A really good write complimented by all elements of a pro production. Vocal and lead guitar are just outstanding! Great stuff as always.
Happy Holidays to you all—
Deej We appreciate that! J&B

First of all , the vocals are world class. Janice makes it sound so easy because for her it is easy! The mix is great. The instruments are all separated and very clear. Peter plays all the right stuff. Nice bass work and a good blues write. Like David said, it’s always blues season! Tom

Hey team. Sorry for the late reply. Always a holiday to hear your new offerings! FANTASTIC work from all participants. Janice, very powerful vocals! Especially loved the vocals on ending. Peter's guitars sounds perfect. Bud, glad to hear more of your upright bass playing, super! Mix is radio ready quality. Enjoyed this very much and thank you for sharing.
Misha.

Time may be hard but you guys make producing this sound easy. As always, Janice's one of a kind vocals really shine. Great job to all!

You all are born to this style. My hat's off to Bud playing an upright bass. I tried it a couple of times but it fought me and won.
Vic Thanks Vic! I hauled that bass fiddle around for decades when we were gigging. It’s like moving a piece of furniture. Playing and moving it are very physical. Glad I’m over all that  J&B

So good guys!!! I was blown away by the feel, the voice and the bass, then Peter's solo swept up the ashes, and like a Phoenix, I rose to enjoy that SuperTrack piano, too. What an outstanding performance, mix and master. At the very end I hear something that sounds like one of the musicians putting down their instrument. Janice's singing is... well, we all know it doesn't get any better than that voice. Glad you're back on bass, Bud, and with a great sound. Peter, this is my fav of you. What a terrific feel, tone and taste. So much in the mix --can only be tamed by someone with your skills, Bud. What to say other than we much appreciate the generous and supportive review. One that put a smile on all our faces  Thank you Marty! J&B

Loved the walkdowns in this, I like to use them myself sometimes. Really effective. Peter absolutely destroyed it on guitar, best I've heard from him. All those wonderful vocal tracks by Janice topped it all off so well. Great work, congratulations to the whole team. Happy holidays to all.

J&B and Peter, Isn`t Christmas tough? You are pulling out all the stops to convince us here; great vocals ( with inspired callbacks, or whatever those repeats are in correct terms), a very convincing band including a rare appearance of that bass thumper, and some amazing icing from Peter`s guitar. Awesome guys!
Robert Thanks Robert and Bud appreciates the bass mention! Best to you and yours for the holidays and coming year. J&B

Enjoyable blues with cool chord progression and strongly flowing vocals. And what an excellent mix. I like the hard hitting piano and that dirty sound of guitars, maybe there could be little bit more distortion also on drums just to see dust and sweat fill the air  Janne

The Terrific Trio knocks it out of the park with another outstanding blues masterpiece!
There is a lot to love in this one: Janice's fantastic vocal Peter's outstanding guitar chops Bud's expertly played bass
The mix was super also
I love the blues so you know I'm gonna love this one!

Whoah, some really sweet blues here y'all. Totally puts me in the Christmas Spirit! I am going to go down to the corner with a cup and some Boone's Farm and see if I can scratch up enough change for some likker. Just kidding!!!! It is some down home blues though. You folks are the blues masters!  Thank you David! Hope you and Tater enjoyed that likker  Thanks for the nice comments and happy holidays to you and yours. J&B

Really cool blues shuffle. Loved Peters tone on the guitar call backs. Some pretty cool basslines propping up the rhythm section. Awesome vocal Janice. Loved the guitar break Peter. Really cool collab...

It's always blues season! Janice and Peter both do their stuff so well here! Outstanding vocals and guitars. Love the mix, thanks for the details! I see the EMT Plate all over the drums, but the only think I hear on the drums is how nice they sound. As usual, I'm impressed with how well everything fits into them mix - especially the piano. Everything sounds clear without being even slightly harsh. Happy Holidays, y'all, back atcha!  And happy holidays to you! Thanks for all your comments. And for mentioning the drums and piano. Those MST pianos are IMO amazing along with Logic Pro’s Grand Steinway, some Waves magic and Ozone’s Imager. I also appreciate the mix comment. This one was a bit of a struggle.  J&B

Classic blues for sure! super band and crazy good vocals...I love the piano parts and the crispness of the drums...the bass is spot on with the kick...great job Bud...and Peter kills it with those guitar licks...so well done...as usual! Thanks for the great review! And for mentioning the bass/kick cooperation - that took some mix effort. J&B

Sounding good you three! Very cool turnaround.
Janice sounds awesome as per usual, and Peter sounds great too, killer chops.
And, always a treat to hear you on the bass, Bud!
Nice one, enjoyed.
Best to all three of you for the holidays!

You guys are up to your old tricks: sizzling guitar, sultry vocals, slinky blues, and a sensational mix.
That piano provides an added dimension to the instrumentation.
Love the climb downs.

Brilliant. Janice at her best, Peter and Bud the perfect accompaniment, the production is gritty-sounding and excellent - loved it. What's there to say apart from: hats off? You are SO consistent ... every production is top-notch. You are spoiling us, but I, for one, am extremely grateful for it! More! Bravi :-)
