Ok, what I am to write? Because, once again, everything is superb. Janice sings as naturally as if she was born destined to do this, which I fully believe she was. The arrangement and mix is absolutely incredible, from every point of view (super clear in my headphones, too). The guitar WAILS ... the bass is real funky, with punctuated accents ... what else? Oh, I loved the ending, too, haha You set the benchmark others have to follow. Congratulations, each and everyone involved. A thoroughly professional production. You are so kind with your remarks and they are always appreciated. Cool you mentioned Ray's punctuated notes -- we also thought they were very effective. Glad you liked it and big thanks! J&B

One of the forum's super-groups reappears with a stunning performance and production! Superlatives to all the players involved. The updated production sounds clean with clear positioning of the instruments in the mix. I like that sound effect at the end. I don't think my students would know what it means to rewind in the traditional (or boomer) sense.

Janice, Bud, Peter, and Ray, this is a masterpiece of music!
The wah guitar is perfect
The bass supported the song perfectly
Of course the vocal was top notch
The mix was outstanding
I'm glad you redid this
Loved the song
REALLY loved that ending! Thank you Mario! It was a fun revisit. Glad you liked the Boomer Tag. 😀 J&B

Janice, Bud, Peter and Ray,
It's a great reggae sound.
Janice, Ray and Peter each bring their own great style.
I sometimes remix my old works, so I understand the desire to remix.
This is a great remix.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi Thank you Shigeki. We alway appreciate your comments. Great to hear from you! J&B

Very unusual beat to place the claps - takes some time getting used to, but a nice contrast to a genre that relies heavily on back/off/whatever beats. The bass is an important part of reggae, and Ray's noodling together with Janice's beating that poor Cajon (one of the few instruments I really LOVE to play) creates the perfect groove, while Peter fills the rest with tasteful little licks - perfect. Production is perfect, and Janice is just - Janice. Nuff' said Question: How can I rewind an MP3 file? I'm asking for a friend... We heard that on the third handclap on a reggae song back before we began this and liked the vibe. It’s called a “one drop rhythm.” We appreciate all your comments and special thanks for Janice’s cajon mention. Rewind an mp3? Hmmmm. That’d be a good one to ask an AI chat bot. Give it a chance to serve up another ludicrous answer. 🤪 J&B

Hi, J&B.
As usual, in the pocket and grooving along. It gives me the image of a some funky machine rolling up the street, with the claps corresponding to a car backfiring, like some swampy vehicle that's rolled out of the bayou.
Everything fits together and sounds great! Thanks for the nice remarks and we’ll never get that vehicle imagery outa our heads! J&B

Excellent song and production. I'm sure I've heard it and also seen the YT video before. Definitely prefer the remix and that organ really adds to it. Thanks! J&B

Fabulous! Love the wha guitar, just a super sound that fits the song like a glove.
And just a great groove. Ray is right in the pocket, and Janice is magnificent as per usual.
Killer job on the mix, Bud!
Excellent, really enjoyed this one. Thanks Dave! We certainly admire your productions and performances so that makes your review even more meaningful and much appreciated. J&B

Oh, it is so enjoyable. PB&J is my all-time favorite trio, and couldn't imagine how it could ever be more exciting. But having Ray in there is even more enjoyable. So well done, Ray. Great mix, Bud, too. I like it when I can hear every note the bass plays.
Hey, it's kinda strange that I haven't mentioned how thrilled I am with your singing, Janice, and your technique and perfect contributions on guitar, Peter. Janice, excellent beat on the cajon, too.
Ray, excellent taste and technique. I like the way you think when there're only four strings. Great feel. Man, you commented so nicely on every goal we could have hoped to achieve. Thanks for all and for mentioning Janice’s cajon tapping. Much appreciated! J&B

Oh yeah!
Hey this sounds great!
Man I may be a horrible horrible human being, who probably needs to go to church more often and get his mouth washed out with soap but...
Is there any way..
I mean any way possible...
That this song even in the tiniest way is possibly...
Suggestive???
Like train kept a rolling all night long? With a heave and a ho and I just couldn't let her go?
Or whole lotta love?
Or fat bottom girls they make the rocking world go round??
I mean is there any.... any any way???

There's a mix of gospel blues and reggae when you listen to this. The claps sound great, as does everything else.

Someone understands the dynamics between a vocal vs instrumentation. THIS is a perfect example of how to allow a vocalist to be the center point. Her timbre, range and dynamics make us to focus on her vs the background music. The music sat in the pocket and never competed with the story being sung. Another amazing project using BIAB. Take a bow. This was excellent, IMO !

Great production by the whole crew, no surprise there. Janice is always the star but those claps and percussion are pushing for room in the spotlight. Really added a lot to the track. Great job, all!

Well, Bud was born during the first week of the first month of the first year of the baby boom so we get that boomer thing. 😀 J&B
