Peter's guitar work is every bit a match for the write and the vocal. Nothing out of place. Tasty.

The "behind the scene" work is stunningly good. Bud - you are a real talent. The mix is impeccable.

ZOWIE.

A review this complimentary and supportive and covering all aspects of the production makes us feel that the time/effort expended since we started our BiaB journey six years ago has been worthwhile. When we started with BiaB as bluegrass players the notion that we could produce a blues song was not remotely on the radar screen. We both remain deeply appreciative of the co-writes, vocal collabs and mixing advice over the years with you. Here's to many more!

Thank you,

J&B

Thanks so much for sharing smile You should be proud of this!


Thanks Deryk, we tried to get that older blues sound with the write and the vocal. And of course Peter iced the cake.

Thanks for checking back in! Nice of you to say that...even if we've never approached music as a profession. Just good ole fashioned fun.

We appreciate it!

Thanks and good call -- yep the old guy made another of his numerous typos!

Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Thank you Shigeki. Glad you liked it all. Thanks for mentioning the minor key as we felt like that enhanced the feel.

PS we understand that terrible was meant as positive. In English bad sometimes means good smile

So nice! Love the (no) intro. No use wasting any time getting into this fine tune. Janice, your vocals always shine, and this is one of your best. Love the guitar work by Peter. This sounds like something Eric Clapton might would have done.

And great production and video, Bud. What a team!

I have been out for a couple months, and so glad to come back to this one!

A really great overall sound with three highly skilled musicians showing their wares. Loved it, Tom


Tom, thank you so much for all the kinds words. Glad you liked the turnaround as it drove me nuts trying to get it to work. Best to you as y'all recover from Irma!

Thanks Ember. It's always great to hear from you and cool that you like the blues!

Janice, Bud and Peter,

I think this emoticon says it all...



This is such a great listen!

Janice, you are really singing up a storm on this one. I sat here thinking, "How does she make sounding SO good seem SO easy!" If ever you decide to bottle your talent and ship it across the globe, I'll definitely take some.

Peter, your guitar playing is first class (as it always is). It seemed to me that you really settled into the groove and let fly! Outstanding stuff!

Bud, the mix is sharp, focused and resonating with crystal clarity. Once again, you've created a sound that is a fully authentic band.

Absolutely everything about this appealed to me. (Now I'm off to watch the video.)

All the best to you all,
Noel
