I don't have much time for the forum anymore for various reasons, but wanted to drop in for a minute to thank everyone that mentioned my part in this great song that Marty wrote. I see everyone has been busy, hopefully soon I will have time to spin a few tunes

Sizzling Hot! The blues is alive and well in this song, Marty. That’s a great tone on Dave’s guitar and his fingers must’ve been smoking afterwards.  Your vocal and bass (love those last notes) are excellent. Mixing all those drum stems and and the other tracks is above our mix grade ... sounds great on the monitors. Cool video too. Love it! J&B PS. Glad to hear that all is well with Tunemonger as we’ve missed his presence.
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

It's hard to go wrong with the blues, and this does a lot stuff above and beyond. Especially Dave on the guitar! That's a lot of RealDrums on this song!  Keep on mongering!

Oh yeah this is scorching!
You guys always deliver the goods man! Thanks, David! Much appreciated. LOVE this!!! A proper Blues song, done properly!!! You sing it out of the park, Dave is equally brilliant, with his amazing solos. More, much more, please! Definitely one of your best! Ah, thanks, James. Sounds like you like it. Funny thing to say --"SOUNDS like" when all I do is read. But I hear ya, friend. Thank you. Marty & Dave,
Classic. 2 spins sounds absolutely stellar. Big sound. Excellent vocals and hot guitar and super bass playing. Enjoyed it and thank you for sharing.
Misha. Thank you, thank you, Misha. Listened to this the other day but I couldn't post at that time. This is a great song no nits to pick on this one. More blues please!
Rick Thank you, Rick. More blues? You got it. Speaking for Dave, I say neither of us can stop. Blues Buds.

Funny simple story told by a convincing blues voice, can't recall the word "assasin" used in a song, so has to be very unique subject Dave is doing everything to purify the town, tearing the blue completely apart and the result is a complete success story. Very nice bassline in the end. Janne

I see everyone has been busy, hopefully soon I will have time to spin a few tunes Dave, thanks, and I have a few more in the hopper that you've already done, and few more waiting for you. I'm sure I can speak for all of us here that we look forward to more from you. Take care, my friend. Sizzling Hot! The blues is alive and well in this song, Marty. That’s a great tone on Dave’s guitar and his fingers must’ve been smoking afterwards. Your vocal and bass (love those last notes) are excellent.

Glad to hear that all is well with Tunemonger as we’ve missed his presence. Thanks, Janice & Bud. Yeah, I love that tone, and Dave's playing was smokin' so I suspect his fingers were on fire. I don't know anything about pay grades, but I DO know there is nothing you can't mix, Bud. Nice work guys. Enjoyed the listen.
Mark Thanks much, Mark!

Actually just one drum kit --but a lot of mics to mix. Funny simple story told by a convincing blues voice, can't recall the word "assasin" used in a song, so has to be very unique subject Dave is doing everything to purify the town, tearing the blue completely apart and the result is a complete success story. Very nice bassline in the end. Janne Haha! Wonderful review, Janne. Yeah, not sure where the word assassin came from --and it wasn't even to fill a rhyme. Bluesy awesomeness. Me likes. A lot Thanks, BD. "Bluesy awesomeness" me likes. Boy just love when you and Dave get together to play the blues. Super vocal and loved Daves call backs. Awesome listen. Thanks, Scott. Man, wish we all could actually get together for a jam.

Marty and Dave,
A proper blues tune performed by a couple of pros! Marty you always post stuff that's well worth the time to listen and always produced the right way! Sounds like you turned Dave loose and he just let it rip like he was intended to do!
Thanks, TB
