Get out my J&B&T rubber stamp... Superb vocal. (J - Stamp!) Super production and awesome mix. (B - Stamp!) Tasty guitar. (T - Stamp!) A good story write. (I take it that's still working out?... ) Very cool band. Your songs always really stick in my head. There's another... fj

Janice Tom & Bud
Like Dave I heard this a little while ago and playing it again is like hearing an old familiar favourite. Lovely guitar work - not easy playing with a capo at the 12th fret - great mix and sound, strong lyrics and of course a beautiful vocal with some lovely harmonies.
Another top notch composition.
Peter We appreciate that Peter! Thanks for mentioning the harmony...I spent a little more time than usual mixing it. J&B

Janice, Bud & Tom,
I love this... The sound and overall feeling are great. It's fresh, and as always Janice has full emotional control of where the song is going.
Perfect write, mix and delivery - absolutely pro all the way!
Bob Thanks Bob and in particular for mentioning the write! J&B

J&B, What the listeners above said... and I like the softness at the centre of the story. A happy ending with ringing guitars ( great work, Tom!) and standout vocals, of course. A little of the Byrds, with all the goodness of Janice & Bud. Excellent work.
Robert
Thank you Robert. I had not thought of the Byrds but, yep, Tom’s guitar definitely adds a bit of that. J&B

Heartwarming write, well sung, solid mix. Subtle harmonies. The kick certainly comes through on the headphones!
As usual, nicely done!
Thanks David. I was listening in our vehicle the other which has a sub and I thought the same about the kick...hmmmm perhaps a few db's too much.

I always have high expectations when I see you post a song. Yet, they are never high enough. To me, it's catchy, has a cool feel to it, produced really well, and has really nice instrumentation all the way around. I like that drum sound, too. Do I also need to mention that the guitar and vocals are great? Ice is cold...as long as we are mentioning things that are REALLY obvious. Great job all! Thank You!! Really glad to hear the word “catchy.” We were hoping for something of that ilk and upbeat. Unlike some of my more Southern Gothic vibes. We always appreciate hearing from you. J&B

J&B,
Great intro. Don’t know why, but had a Jimmy Buffet feel to me--but still unique and fresh. It works great. Wonderful vocals and a nice melody. My only thought would be to try to rhyme “fedora” with someone more than “adores her”—even just one time to serve as a change up on the rhyme. Just my two cents, but a very cool listen.
Kind regards,
Deej

Hello, Janice & Bud, Tom
Really wonderful collaboration! Tom's guitar work is great. And it is surprising twice that it is the Tele capoed at the twelfth fret and fingerpicked. As John said, I also love the 'Linda Ronstadt' vocal delivery. Beautifully engineered and produced. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi We appreciate your comments Shigeki. Thanks for the very nice remarks about the vocal! J&B

B&J + Tom, EXCELLENT stuff. The vocal is just the San Francisco side of country - the Tom guitar is very cool. My only suggestion would be to take the 12 string guitar track and hammer it with a good compressor & add a little top end to bring out some chime - it'd be Byrdsian then. Alternately add a strummed 12 string with the same compressor/EQ treatment to get chime happening - that'll go well with Tom's work. Hey Ray, love your description of the vocal and glad you like the tune. When I get caught up, I'll try your suggestions on the 12 string. Most guitar processing is above my pay grade but I'm game. Thanks! J&B PS Byrdsian is good Fantastic work Bud and Janice! Great arrangement and vocals. Quite the journey through the lyrics I must say. Well done! Thanks Joe! J&B
