CAUTION: If blues ain't your music thing and/or you fret over spiders do not enter!  The Video Audio Only Mountain biking and hiking our homestead trail often leads to collisions (mostly in the face!) with spider webs…and that gave thought to this write  For those not familiar with North America’s black widow spider she has a red hour glass on her belly and has the rather unfortunate habit of consuming her mates who are rather drab in appearance And she is quite venomous (in the literal sense). Thanks to Janice for agreeing to let Bud photograph her trying out a “come hither” expression and then doctoring up the photo! She laughed so much that I didn’t think we had a chance to get the shot. And big thanks to Peter for the guitars! Your time to both listen and comment is always appreciated. Janice: vocal and melody Peter: lead guitar, rhythm guitars and arrangement Bud: lyric, arrangement, audio/video production, mix and mastering If so inclined here’s the techy stuff: Vocal > FX: Nectar 2 Drums > RD BluesRockWaves / FX: CLA Drums & EMT 140 Plate Reverb sim Bass > RT 564 Blues Monday / FX: Waves Bass Rider & Waves CLA Bass Guitar Rhythm > RT 565 Blues Monday Organ > MIDI SuperTrack / Sound: Logic Pro B3 w/ Blues preset & Logic Direction Mixer Neutron 2’s masking feature was used on all tracks. Equipment: Logic Pro X, Rodes NT1 mic & Scarlett USB interface Mastering: Waves LinMB, Ozone 8 EQ, Ozone 8 Maximizer and Izotope’s Tonal Balance Black Widow C 2018 B. Merritt, J. Merritt & P. Fulham they call me the black widow i’ve had seven husbands they call me the black widow i’ve had seven husbands look at this web ain’t it grand? see how it hangs watch it shimmer i have plenty of room see how it shines crawl right in i have plenty of room i’m needin’ another bride groom solo lemme show you my hourglass cause I know how you feel lemme show you my hourglass i know how I make you feel you’ll make me a fine meal they call me the black widow i’ve had seven husbands they call me the black widow i’ve had seven husbands look at this web ain’t it grand? i’ve had seven husbands look at this web ain’t it grand?

What an hourglass! Spin that web, baby. You know how I feel.
Hot stuff. Bluegrass to blues isn't a trick for Janice. Smokin' guitar and tasty production. A big, fun listen.

Janice, Bud and Peter,
When I saw/heard the preview of this the other day, I said "Holy crap! Wait until this hits the forum!" Everything about this is beyond awesome. Peter's guitar just smokes, although in a calm and controlled way. The man has a great touch and soul for the music. Of course Janice's voice is a such a treat to all ears. And that Bud guy knows how to turn the knobs.
Super!!!
Alan

First of all what a cool video. So well done. this song just oozed the blues. Incredible vocal and backtrack. Peters guitar was just awesome. Tone and angst in the playing was so cool to listen to. Super collaboration. Well done...

Some very cool blues you have going on here. Terrific vocal and killer guitar work. Just classic sounding stuff. Kudos to all involved!

Alan Thanks Alan. We’ve had time for very few J&B projects this year so we are even more happy that you like this. Peter sent us what was intended as a scratch solo track and we immediately said YES. Keep it! J&B

This, in my opinion, is possibly the best blues song that has ever been posted to this forum, loved everything about it! Peter just absolutely nails the guitar, absolutely perfect! Great "feel", great tone, great chops. Love the production and mix on this, Bud, and the lyrics are fun too. And Janice has got it going on big time!! Listened on soundcloud a few days ago, enjoyed watching the video this time around  Well done guys and gal!

Lord have mercy,
"Let me show you my hourglass
I know how I make you feel"
that's worth the price of admission in itself (so to speak)
gorgeous blues, like a silky Stormy Monday
Peter always plays great solos but this one is my favorite after one listen
and the mix is pro all the way, everything fits and balances so nicely
Fantastic vocal Janice
Awesome!
Kenny

Oh, yeah.
PB&J channeling ABB!
What a sound! The organ is killer. Peter's guitar is superb! Cool bite.
The girl was BORN to do this. There should be a tour in the works. $$$$$
Impeccable mix.
The ear hangs on from the first note to the last.
Good as it gets.
Oh, yeah.

Three absolute standouts in this song: the lyrics, the impeccable guitar, and the velvety smooth Crow Royal voice.

What a tune! I swear Janice's voice was designed for music like this. The whole thing sounds smoky and lush. Both the instrumentation and Janice's vocals carry some major attitude. Got my toe tapping within a few bars too. And it's pretty dang catchy as well! Great work, and thanks for sharing
