I have run out of adjectives trying to describe how great you all are!
As usual everything is spot on, great vocal, great guitar chops and an outstanding mix.
Loved this one. You are too kind Mario...but we’ll take it!  Thanks, J&B

Janice, Bud & Peter,
Good to hear Peter letting rip and Janice having fun ( those bgv`s are so cool!).
The piano track is a gem and all production items checked in the "pro-level" box.
The song theme sounds familiar : "Hometown Refugee" being one of my favourites of yours, its interesting to find the feelings writers draw on being cyclical.

Great groove, you can always trust on good old Texas blues. Some nice momentary steps out of the traditional blues formula with the chords that are highlighted by the background vocals, enjoyable surprise. Great arrangement and mix, Peter's guitar playing and of course Janice's vocals really make this fly through the roof.

Hi there J&B + Peter,
A classic, rocking blues track, with all the right elements in there.
A faultless backing track with a perfect choice of instruments.
Janice and Peter both flying in this one - guitar and voice full of emotion
and using that elusive and hard-to-do blues timing, which makes all the difference.
Great mix, Bud, as I've come to expect from you. (No pressure there then for next time.)
A fabulous track which made me smile.
ROG. Thanks a lot Rog. Peter

Fun lyric and rollickin' blues. Guitar is in the pocket. It all sounds good (especially Janice) and makes me smile. But I gotta tell you--them harmonies is nuts. Fun.

Janice, Bud, Peter...
Straight-ahead-driving Blues right from the first note. And it never lets up.
All the usual accolades apply.
Stellar vocals. Love those BGVs.
Cool/hot guitar throughout.
Superb mix.
Everyone needs a "hometown" write. And this is a good one.
Good to the last drop (note). What a cool ending!!
fj Thanks. This is an old write. One of our first blues efforts and at a time when we were thinking a lot about moving out west. Glad you liked the BGV’s too! J&B

Hi J&B and Peter
Loved this. Those backing vocals are so creative (and the lead vocal is of course superb, as per usual). Peter is in his comfort zone and right on the money. Great mix as always.
Regards,
Leon

Hi Janice, Bud and Peter,
So this is what happens when you stay inside too long! You make funny songs with silly lyrics (your own words).
For me that was great fun listening to! The guitarsolo was great, the vocals -of course- too, and at the end of the song it felt as if the piano went sky high!
I liked that repeating of words in the song too. Gave me a broad smile. The disadvantage of this is that it stays in my head now.
Now my wife gets crazy from me repeating every last word 5 times...
Cheers,
Hans

That is pure minted, as soon as it started you ..know its pro, the guitars sound excellent and well placed ,
Its so upbeat and current for the charts, Janice's vocals are pure and driving , for this type of song.
Truly a Brilliant song ,track, and Vocals.
Well done to you all.
Take care.
Thanks
Thanks. Those are nice supportive comments and they are appreciated by all. And thanks for the mix comments! GOOD STUFF!!! Interesting the way Janice used a dissonant note in the BGs!! Peter, as always, rocked the house!! Great production, great effort all around!! Take care. Greg Thanks Greg. Glad you liked it! During those BGV lines there is either a C7b9 or a A7b9 chord both of which have C# as a chord or root note-- Since she goes to a C# all I (Bud) can figure is that as she said "I was just following the piano!" You have a fine ear. We appreciate your remarks. J&B

Wow, Bags of Real Quality Blues right from the first note.
Peter sets that axe on fire, Janice does the usual superb job in front of the mic, Bud stuck the lot together with nothing wanting, not even missing the photo!
Great party, everyone.

Hats off as usual. Janice sings the lights out of this song, as per usual, Peter's so crisp on the guitar (again, as usual) and the production is laser-sharp - yes, as usual. That's it! go and listen to it, folks! :-) BRAVI!!!

J&B + Peter, Super moving tune! Janice vocals are very engaging and lively. Cool vocal octave variation / repetitions tails. I must say, Peter's guitar stole this show Bud...tune shines! Your production skill level is something I look up to. Enjoyed it much. Thank you for sharing. Misha. Thanks Misha. We all appreciate your thoughtful remarks. It was a fun project! However, production wise it was not exactly in my wheelhouse. J&B

All the accolades afforded you three are highly deserved. Nothing comes out of Georgia Homestead Studios unless it is first rate. The production just doesn’t get much better. And that sanger. Man oh man! Couple that with a first rate write and some red hot guitar lines and it all ends up as a winning combination. Even those not steeped in the blues as we are can find something to like here. Every piece just seems so natural and completely unforced. Top of the class, Tom

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
