Great vocal, smooth as silk!

Nice guitar too, perfectly judged.

A great track which I can imagine being performed in a smoky Jazz club.

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. laugh

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!!

Hey Alyn, now that was a clever arrangement....of remarks! Thank you.

Stellar. Awesome. Delightful. Gorgeous. Tasty. Beautiful.

Gulp.

The girl just gets better and better and better... how can that be????

Very clever write. Pro instrumentation and mix. Tasty lead - in all the perfect places.

Bravo. Bravo. Bravo.

Thank you so much! Reading those comments from somebody of your abilities is overwhelming. We are much flattered!

I thought I commented on this song the day it was posted... I guess I got distracted and left before I hit the SUBMIT button... oh well... there's still time

1) Bud, you are the MASTER of the clean airy mix! just enough of everything, and it never sounds like you need something more to make it complete! You'll have to teach me that skill some day...

2) And the lyrics are really cleverly conceived!... not a completely original idea, but what is in blues? We've been addicted to love, hooked on a feeling, we've known girls who are a hard habit to break... and now we know how side effects of love might manifest. It basically leaves me feeling' like "I want me some dem side 'fecks!"

3) Tommy, apart from the rock solid delivery that has become your trade mark, what impresses me here is that it's not a regurgitation of the same licks you used in other projects. That's VERY easy to do when you're working with basically the same 3 chords for a couple of songs in a row.. but you have enough unique ideas that you don't need to reuse any! In this particular project I also like the way the drums and guitar mirror each other in the ending. That was cool, and its the epitome what rarely happens with real tracks alone. I also liked the echo and slight breakup in the guitar tone.. it created a very authentic period guitar sound.

4) Janice... you are such a pro! Everything you sing sounds so effortlessly perfect, even though you probably never record more than one take of anything! Whether you want to make income with your singing or just have fun with it, you seem equally well poised in both directions. I know you're having fun, and that makes me happy. I hope if you are interested in making money that an opportunity will come your way. And if not, I hope you continue having a blast casting your sultry spell on all of us here on the showcase!

Thanks Herb....this bend to the blues does seem to be working out for us. Still odd after 40 years of bluegrass!

Pat, thank you very much for taking the time to listen and to give that response. It is so apparent that you devote a lot of thought and consideration into your responses. We VERY much appreciate it. And "sultry spell" was worth the entire production time!!

Great track, team.

ROG.


A super big +1

I love the blues and this was top shelf, radio air play ready.

This is a keeper.

PS - it reminded me of the line "Do you know that tingling feeling you get when you meet your loved one for the first time? It is common sense leaving your body!"


Unclear if the pianist is a total beginner or a professional jazz player?
