Dave & Team,
Thumbs up! Nice groove, flows into ears like butter. Two spins, easy listen. I've saw some tech comments, but did not read the closely. I thought mix was great. Especially I liked Chris vocals, how the sits in the mix. Even her more aggressive parts sound smooth. A+ for Guitar work! Marty is bass is perfect fit. Enjoyed this and thank you for sharing.
Misha.

Cool uptempo blues with great work from all 3 of you. And there are some pretty good Gary Moore guitar licks. Me likes! Appreciate that B.D., thanks very much! Very smoothly done, Dave. Nice clean sound you have here.
Vic I know blues is not your thing, Vic, so thanks for checking out the song.

Howdy Blue....
Very cool track. A good write with great bluesy vibe. Good mix and great job overall by everyone. Enjoyed the listen.
Well done! Thanks for checking out the song! Dave...I marvel how how good you guys are as a trio...this is such a clean, tight and professional sounding recording...so tastefully mixed and so well performed...Chris has such a beautiful voice....it cuts through the mix exquisitely...and of coarse your leads are always unique and perfect for your songs...Marty...well Marty is Marty (that's all good)...and the song is so well written and a great melody...you guys are top-notch writers, arrangers and performers! Really appreciate that, Dan, thanks!

Oh, yes, we do have time for these blues! Awesome y’all! Chris always sings with such conviction and soul. Dave’s guitar was a little reminiscent of Santana and that was nice! Marty’s bass always nails the bottom end with never too much or too little. The cool vid is perfect for the lyric. As always this is a HIGH bar production ... write, vocals, guitar, bass, arrangement and mix. Love it! J&B PS As we say, perhaps too often, mixing is never finished - just abandoned. 
Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more. If interested search on Janice Merritt. Thanks! Our Videos are here on our website.

Well I can listen to the kind of blues anytime. Assume tune Dave. Chris's vocal was super. Marty's basslines gave the song such a cool groove. Drums were perfect. Loved your guitar tone and excellent phrasing. Well done

Rolling down nicely the bluesy road. Excellent groove and the players/singer are perfect, nothing to add, nothing to remove. Even has some nice, slightly surprising chord variations (like one after the last 'dues'). And congratulation for so many YouTube listeners for the song, seems to be the most popular Blue Attitude song already, you are clearly closer to the breakthrough  Janne

This was very enjoyable and a great group of talent you put together to be sure! Amazing vocals and bass - not to mention - the guitar licks.
Keep up the great work! Appreciate the listen and comments! Dave & Team,

Hi Bud and Janice, Yes, I hear you on the mixing thing! I'll give this one one more kick at the can before sending off to DistroKid. Thanks for the kind words, very much appreciate it!

Greg Thanks Greg. I haven't got back to the mix on this one yet, working on another project at the moment. But when I do I'll certainly check on the B3. Great tune! As we are used to hear from you. Thanks
Mike B. Cheers, Mike!

Dave and the gang,
The first thing that caught my attention was how much I liked the sound Of the Toontrack drums, Dave, you did a great job working with those and of course the great sounding guitar parts! I think this is the best sounding vocal by Chris I've heard (she's always great though), Marty's bass work is so solid here! You never go wrong having him playing on a track, it's always professionally done! That BIAB organ sounds good in the mix! TB

Great work by all of you. I agree with Torrey about those vocals, man she really did well with this one. I always like hearing the way you pick Dave, and Marty, well I've always been a fan. I really loved the simple writing and the groove through the whole song. You all gelled just perfectly on this one. Thanks for giving me a listen,
Brad
