I know when I see your names on the post I ain't never gonna hear a bad performance or recording, and I am not going to walk away disappointed. You guys are on fire and the water bucket is dry.

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. Thank you Marty! A blues rock version was a lot of fun and an adventure as I had listen to bluegrass versions for years. Peter really took this one to a good place. Janice 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. Thank you Ray for all! J&B

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 Appreciate that Hans. Peter

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!! Thanks David that is some band you conjured up. Peter

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
Mike B. Thanks Mike Peter

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 Thanks Alan Peter
