Brilliant rocky groove! The voice of Jan the WhOah-man first class as ever. And those guitar solos really make the arrangement. Appreciate that thanks. Peter

Now, THAT's a party! Everything sounds GREAT. Guitars, vocals and mix are all super tight and sparkly. Ya'll can really heat up a pair of headphones. Love it! Thank you! J&B Well, that was a fun listen! Can't go wrong with Janice on vocal (loved the harmonies!) and Peter on guitar in my book Great slide playing throughout, Peter, and I liked the rock guitar licks you did at the end. Nice take on an old classic, enjoyed. Thank you Dave. I’m glad you liked the harmony! Janice

Peter and the J&B gang,
Oh, what a cheerful song you made. Janice's voice is great, but so is Peter's guitar playing!!! It gave me a smile on my face that's still there! If there is really anything to complain about, it is the lyrics on SC that cannot keep up with the cheerful Janice. Finally no more annoying man in the story for her!!!
So, you all did a very good job on this song!
Hans

Hey Peter, this is awesome, and Janice of course is top of her game. Excellent mix and mastering from Bud. The lead guitar and arrangement is blistering. It is kind of like what would happen if you took the Allman Brothers, Credence Clearwater, the Band, and Steve Vai and smushed them all together, with Janis Joplin (though less raspy) on vocals.  Great!!

True indeed what David said about the Blues. Great tune and arrangement, then again anything with Janice in it has to be good. The same goes for the rest of the lot.
Cheers

Hey Ya'll,
The only thing I found I didn't like about this was that it ended.
What a great iteration of this old gem! With the Queen Vocalist singing, it had to be good - just a fact. And Peter, you really ripped those guitars!
Everything perfect. That's all I got.
Take care,
Alan

This confirms my suspicion - blues is nothing but an excuse to play guitar... and to get Janice to sing.  HAHAHAHA Any excuse will do. Thankfully. Y'all knock this one outta-da-park. Killer Vocals. Killer GUITAR!! Excellent mix. So clean. So clear. Damn Fine Music. fj Thanks floyd Peter

Cool song, and done soooo well! Y'all work so well together. Fun song all the way around. I thought those hand-claps were a good addition - made you feel like you're right there. Great job by all.

Oh, man, I always loved playing this one. You three are so good. I like the beat you chose. I quote David Cuny: "blues is nothing but an excuse to play guitar," and man, you do that so well, Peter. Outstanding chops coupled with great taste, and you always select the best singers. And we know that Bud is the master of the mastering. Excellent rendition. Thanks Marty Peter

Smokin guitar, smoky vocals, and a red hot mix and master make this everything a blues man could dream about. Excellence in all aspects, Tom

The only thing that struck me as odd is the "flam" on the snare, (the consistency of it reminds me of glam rock with double drummers like The Glitter band).. The vocals and guitars are, as expected, fabulous but the band is also ace. You really let your fingers fly on the last solo. Janice's voice - ah, me. AND Bud's excellent tracking & treatment. Thanks Ray I think what you heard is a hand clap in the RT. Peter
