Now that's the blues! Janice's vocal stylings are in top form once again. Peter's touch and tone are the perfect compliment. Of course Bud's deep understanding of sound engineering complete the trifecta of excellence. It just don't get much better than this!

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 Janne, we three hugely appreciate those very supportive and positive comments. Needless to say Janice is humbled by your thoughts on her vocal. Thank you!! J&B

Tom, it’s great to see you back on the forum and, man, what a supportive review. You are a blues man, a fine singer, a great instrumentalist and a very, very high bar engineer/producer and all that makes your review very special to us. Thank you! Best to you and yours. Hope the thumb improves. And stick around! J&B

Hi J&B and Peter. What exquisite listening! I never get tired of hearing Janice sing and Peter playing his guitar. Making first class, professional-sounding music just seems so easy for the three of you. The opening a cappella verse was an awesome arranging choice. The most powerful songs I've ever heard are those that launch straight into the song without any explanation or introduction, and they usually begin a cappella. Only the very, very best singers seem to have the confidence to do that. There is no doubt about it at all, Janice is in the upper-echelon of the talent hierarchy. I absolutely loved this! --Noel

We agree about the “straight into it” beginnings. We also like them and have done three or four over the years. This was a fun project and as an admirer of your productions your thoughts are very special to us! J&B Boy what a cool groove Janice. Peters guitar was excellent. Love those double stops. Excellent mix and master Bud. Thanks Scott. We appreciate it all and are happy you liked it and the stops. J&B

I immediatly thought of "Key to the Highway" when I heard your rendition of "Trouble in Mind" so out of interest I checked with Wikipedia which states that "Key to the Highway" was first recorded in 1940. So it would appear that "Key to the Highway" stole "Trouble in Mind".
But anyway, superlatives escape me when it comes to the brilliance and beauty of your productions. To quote Billy "And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar And say man what are you doin' here?"
Oh, and my compatriate Peter ain't no slouch either!

J&B,
Love the vocal only intro! No instrumentation was needed there! Janice carried it quite nicely as well as the rest of the song!
Great treatment of the old PD song!
Nice guitar fills with the perfect sound for this!
Bud mixed up a great recipe of ingredients for the final wonderful sound!
Take care, TB

Oh, and my compatriate Peter ain't no slouch either! Interesting observation. Also I just realized they are both 8 bar blues arrangements. Thanks for the time to listen and write such a supportive review. It’’s much appreciated. J&B
