Thanks it is incredible what technology has allowed us accomplished these days, and of course that includes Band In A Box.

Everything that girl sings is gold.

Sure hope Bud keeps that bass dusted... more, more, more!!

The guitars - talkin' some smack.

Nice mix.

So good.

Thanks floyd. Loved we could get the band together for this. We need Bud to work on his calluses!

The lead and backing vox were sa-weet!

Those guitars I were to die for! Tasty! My goodness, those tones! Sersiouly, those tones! I could listen all day!

The bass sounded awesome AND I think Bud maybe hinted at a line for a song...something about "dust so thick I could write my name in it." The man has a brilliant way with words. (Even when argueing that very statement, his phrases and word choice are spectacular ;))

Dobro, Slide, Lead guitar...I wish I had THAT sound!

I could hear Bud's influence on this. That's a good thing. A VERY good thing.

I expected A LOT seeing the names involved. Even with high expectations; I was blown away.

Really nice job!

Off to smile some more. smile


Man, you know how to make a couple SMILE! A person of your musical cred saying things like that about us old bluegrass folks makes it all more than worthwhile. Thank you!!!

Thank you for sharing!

I want to apologize for being so absent from the forum. Also, I will be candid that this part of the post is kind of a generic “form letter” to my old and new forum friends.

In brief, work is very hectic right now and I am having a hard time keeping up with the forum and even writing new songs. There is also a lot of new material hitting the boards—more than I can listen to and reply. People are on a roll!

Instead of backing away from the forum I want to stay involved by just giving the equivalent of a “like” as opposed to full-fledged commentary.

This way, I can just keep listening, and enjoying and reply with a simple LOVE IT or something like that.

I do listen, love your stuff and really want to continue following those who are so dedicated to encouraging others, even if it is only with one word.

Hope this makes sense, thanks for your artistry and forgive my brevity going forward with massive time constraints.

Also forgive me if you see this message more than once until I know I have covered all my bases.

Peace!!

smile


Thanks David, hope work is going well.

You both have very distinct playing styles and the sound so good playing back and forth to each other. Very cool


Appreciate the comments Scott.

Thanks we all appreciate that.

I may be the only one on this forum who didn't know the song, but I'm definitely one of those who think that this is just marvellous all the way.

Such a great collab of some of the most experienced forum members... Don't know when I last heard a Dobro (and then played so well), I'm a fan of your (Peter's) and Dave's playing anyway, finally had the chance to hear Bud grabbing his old upright bass - as dusty as it may have been: it didn't sound dusty at all.

Well, I've said it so often before: Janice, I adore your singing !!!!!!

So many fine musicians together - AWESOME.

And the productions sounds as clear and brilliant as can be - congratulations on such an outstandingly fine piece of music.

Regards,

Stefan


Thanks Stefan we really appreciate the kind words.

This is everything one could hope to hear in a song with musicians of this caliber. An album should be in the works. The world deserves it. Enjoyed this from start to finish.

And it's a blues - what's not to like?

Thanks a lot.
