SIDE EFFECTS (For those with SoundCloud issues: Side Effects ) Happy New Year everybody and thank you for your support, encouragement and your listening time over the past year. We appreciate you one and all! Hey, ever get tired of the prescription drug ads (at least in the US) on tv and in all the magazines? And then there's the invariable listing of side effects they always throw at you.....thinking about them inspired this eight bar blues tune featuring Janice on vocals and Tom Adams (tommyad) on lead guitar. We welcome comments! Vocal: Janice/Rodes NT1/Blue Icicle USB Guitar Lead: Tom Adams ( www.tommyadamsmusic.com) Thanks Tom!! Bass: RT 1392 Jazz Ballad SW Very Simple Piano R: RT 2167 Country Swing SW Piano Solo (fills): RT 2047 Country SW Drums: RD Blues Rock Guitar R: RT 566 Blues SW (amp sim via Logic Pro X) (All RT's and the Drum Track were comped from multiple regens) Mixing: Logic Pro X Effects/Mastering: Nectar 2/Ozone 6 Side effectsI get side effects from you baby yes I do Yeah they come from hanging round you Maybe I should have read your label cause When you're away they make me blue I get side effects every time you walk by They always make me feel oh so high Maybe I should have read your label cause My heart flutters when you catch my eye I get side effects when I'm in your arms They come on quick and set off my alarms Maybe I should have read your label cause I get dizzy when you turn on your charms I get side effects when you call me sweetheart when you say I'm yours they always start Maybe I should have read your label cause They run my temperature right off the chart Come on baby give me some side effects © 2015 Janice & Bud Merritt

Hehehe. I cheated and read the lyrics first - a great write - they're hilarious.
As usual, excellently sung by Janice, and the mix convinces me I'm surrounded by a group of professional players.

Wow! Clever lyrics, sexy vocal, tasty guitar work, and a really nice arrangement and mix. The recording quality on the vocal is tremendous - so present, but still sitting well in the mix. I like it a lot!
Thanks, Bruce

Hi there Janice, Bud & Tom.
Hey, what's not to like here? A super smooth blues with clever lyrics, excellent choice of RTs and some really nice relaxed guitar work.
And then, of course, there's Janice. What can I say that I haven't said before? Janice, when you sing like that you send shivers down my back. Wonderful.
Great track, team.
ROG.

Janice Bud and Tom, Hmmm you three are getting quite good Great vocals and stellar guitar, as usual from Janice and Tom. And a lot of work I assume from Bud. If only the side effects of prescription drugs were as delightful as this song then I would willing swallow the tabs I take. There are definitely no contraindications with 500 mgs of Janice and Bud; 500 mgs of Tom and 50 mls of BIAB. Guaranteed to make you happy!! Alyn

Hi, Bud & Janice !!
Impossible to get by listening to this without side effects (like tapping your feet, snapping your fingers swaying your head and feeling those good heat waves and goosebumps rolling in over you when listening to that silky smooth wonderful voice of Janice !! ohhh ahhh !!!
I do not find the right words for how to praise this superb tune and that superb voice !!!
A most Happy New Year to you too
