You have a wonderful common language called "Blues" and I am truly envious from my perspective.
Janice's vocal is wonderful ever on this tune.
The true blues feel is overwhelmed from the whole voice and it is a masterpiece.
Tom's guitar work is fantastic and outstanding.
The mix is also exceptional.
I’m not a blues man as same as Robert, but I enjoyed this very much!

Best regards.

Yes Shigeki, we definitely are on the same page when it comes to blues. I have complete faith in Janice’s abilities. Thank you for the kind words, Tom

Tremendous sound guys...

Tom - your guitar in this is hang-on-every-note worthy. Your Chicago is showing. Sweet.

The mix is I M P E C C A B L E. And just to be clear, here are listed synonyms for IMPECCABLE: flawless, faultless, unblemished, spotless, immaculate, pristine, stainless, perfect, exemplary; squeaky clean

WOW.

Just.... WOW.

There's nothing I enjoy more than sitting in some smoky bar (well, they used to be smoky, not so much any more), sipping a scotch and listening to a great blues band do a great blues song. This hits that nail on the head. So much great stuff here...the lyrics are awesome, fantastic phrasing, and the performances are awesome. KUDOS!!!

Tom and Janice,

I don't know what to say about this. It's such a good listen.

Blues really sits so very comfortably with the two of you. From that attention-grabbing opening through every syllable of lyric and every note of guitar, this musical trip is completely engaging and professionally presented. I never cease to marvel at how talented the two of you are.

Wonderful music!

All the best,
Noel

Tom has been on a bit of a musical sabbatical of late so we're gonna bounce this one. His work needs to be around smile

He did such an AMAZING job on the entire production.
