Peter, Leon, Janice & Bud,
This is an excellent refresh of a great song. Love the RTs and the lead guitar.
Janice as always sounds tremendous. The new backing vocals are perfect.
Bud is a wizard - this version sets a high bar for mastering. Just an incredible sound.
Loved it all!
Bob

When Peter, Leon, Janice & Bud get together you know you are in for some real ear candy and this was no exception!
As usual all parts fit perfectly together: Janice's vocal was perfect, Peter's guitar was perfect, Bud's mix was perfect, and Leon's lyrics were great!
Loved it.
PS - I was smiling all through this one. A friend was over with girlfriend #1 and called her girlfriend #2's name. All hell broke lose! Thus I can, as an observer to the crime, really get this one!

"Should’ve known that you were twisted" Excellent jibe. My ONLY nit is the non English/Australian pronunciation of "a" though o many folk in Australia use the Americanism that I'm a small cricket in the distant night. The "package", if I may be so crude, is fabulous.

Thank you, Peter! I wasn't here 7 years ago, and this is way too good to miss. Love the long title. This is why players call their partners Babe or something similar. Such a fine guitar solo --no surprise. Janice --well, who knew in the 60s I would ever end up saying the best Janice voice has much more merit than what was currently available. YES! You picked the master for the mastering. An excellent choice for an excellent song -- or any song really.

WOW. This is good! The Mix is EXCELLENT. The sound of the Bass and Drums is exceptional. Solid backing.
OMG, those vocals! And here's the kicker...those HARMONIES might be even better than the main! GOOSEBUMPS.
Peter's guitar work - gems all over the place.
A Good Write. The chorus is especially nice. One of your best.
Great Listening.

The write is solid, vocals excellent, clear mix, and the guitar solo is short (sorry, couldn't resist  ). Excellent!

Jazz, Funk & World (Sets 468-475):
Our new jazz, funk & blues RealTracks include a groovin’ collection of RealTracks and RealDrums! These include more requested “soul jazz” RealTracks featuring artists Neil Swainson (bass), Charles Treadway (organ), Brent Mason (guitar), and Wes Little (drums). There are new “smooth jazz” styles (4), which include a RealTracks first: muted trumpet, as well as slick new smooth jazz brushes options for drums. Blues lovers will be thrilled—there are more “classic acoustic blues” styles, including guitar (5), bass (4), and drums (10) with blues master Colin Linden, featuring understated and tasty background acoustic soloing, plus brushes drums and acoustic bass. There are also new electric blues RealTracks, including electric blues with PG favorite Johnny Hiland (3) and soulful electric slide guitar from Colin Linden (4). If you love funk & gospel, there are great new options this year, including gospel organ (3) from Charles Treadway, as well as new funk, tango, and rock ’n’ roll drums (3) and bass (1). And for big, bold arrangements, we have uptempo soul horns (4) featuring a three-part hip horn section with options for a full mix or stems of each individual horn — plus an accompanying rhythm section (4) of drums, bass, guitar, and electric piano!
Rock & Pop (Sets 476–482):
Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.
Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.
Check out all the 202 new RealTracks (in sets 468-488)!
And, if you are looking for more, the 2026 49-PAK (for $49) includes an impressive collection of 20 bonus RealTracks, featuring exciting and inspiring additions to add to your RealTracks library.

Plus, dedicated "cymbal fills" RealDrums provide an added layer that work very well with low-key folky styles with other percussion.
