J&B and Peter:
Always a treat to hear one of your productions . . . like the production choice on the opening . . . you know the music is going to kick in and the anticipation adds gravitas. Great guitar playing that sits so well in the mix. Excellent work all around!!
Deej Thanks for all your nice supportive comments and we appreciate your mention of the opening. J&B

I looooove that acapella opening. Production is distinct and clear. Of course, the vocal is pristine. You have a knack for taking those old tunes, putting your stamp on them, and giving us all an education.

Clicked on this post and the first thing I saw was Scott's (Ezekial Storm's) comment saying he loved that a cappella opening. Man, Couldn't push the play button fast enough. Thanks, Scott. hehe Peter what a great, tasteful sound. You always create the best part for the piece. This song is so much fun to play, and you show it. Janice, has anyone ever told you you sing these Blues better than anyone who ever opened their mouth? You're the best. And how cool is it to have Bud, the master craftsman and the controls. Superior job, you three.

Hey this is great! I really like the way it was recorded. It has an old-timey almost "discovered treasure" lost recording feel to it, from from back in the Lost Delta ages of blues recordings!  Very nice all around with the typical awesome vocals and fantastic instrumentation. Really great job on this one y'all.

Hey, you three,
What's there to say? The song speaks quite nicely for itself. A vocal that fits the style and feels like a hand-made work of art., A master guitarist, and the best knob twister whose work I've had the privilege to hear for more than a decade. Does it get any better? Nope. Well, not unless ya'll do it again.
Mesmerizing and so satisfying. It made my day and my evening. I can now relax the rest of the night and enjoy the solitude of my little office.
I was gonna say, "This is great!", but it's better than that. That word hasn't been invented yet.
Alan Wow! You are too kind. But we will humbly take it. Your time to listen and write such a positive and reflective review is hugely appreciated. One to read over and over indeed. Thank you, J&B

Great a capella intro, loved the guitar riff (almost mandolin-like), terrific arrangement. Wonderful work, team!

I've heard a version of this song before, lyrics sound very familiar. Can't remember who did it though.
Man, I love the way you take these old songs and make them your own!
Love the arrangement, and Janice as always nails the vocal. Excellent job from Peter as per usual, and mix sound great too, Bud.
Enjoyed!

That wind has blown your blues back to us again and what a pleasure it is to listen to this spiritual. Janice's solo in the beginning is really mesmerizing and I would gladly to listen to her without the band for hours, she's the brightest sunshine of this forum. But the band is great also, the piano creates a nice old saloon feeling and Peter's guitar adds electrifying excitement. The mix is excellent, what else I could expect  Janne

Wow, everything ya'll touch is golden. Just a master class in crafting a mesmerizing little journey for the listener. Very efficient, with no wasted motion, yet it all sounds relaxed and positively delicious. Super mix, too! Thank you. You threw in everything we could have hoped to accomplish. "No wasted motion" is very meaningful. We have always followed the notion that a mix is best when there's nothing left to throw away.  We much appreciate all you wrote! J&B
