Thanks Scott and, yes, we like the Andrews Sisters tight harmony. Glad you like it!

Dear Janice, dear Bud, dear Peter,

I hope you're not mad at me for being that late...

Well, I surely don't know much about Western swing, but I think, you don't have to to love this song. Maha just came into the room , not knowing what I was doing, stopped and said, "Wow, that's really nice". And a couple of seconds later she recognized your voice, Janice.

Yes, it's not only 'really nice'm it's marvellous. A great song (although I'm from another part of the world I do get the vibes of it), your singing (especially great when you add the harmony). Bud, I don't know how you get such a transparent sound - I'm amazed by every single one of your songs. And Peter: just great, too !

Love and enjoyed it all the way.

Cheers,

Stefan

Janice & Bud & Peter:

This is maybe . . . naw, I think pretty much . . . my favorite thing I’ve heard from you guys. So many layers that keep the ears tingling. The harmonies in that chorus are just so, so sweet. I have no idea how you make this magic, but please keep me spellbound! Terrific stuff!

My kindest regards (and a tip of a hat to the whistler),

Deej

Thanks Torrey and it’s cool that you are familiar with the genre. We used to play a bit of Western Swing during our bluegrass band years so Janice has some familiarity with it. We appreciate your comments!

I'm late to the party but glad that I came! Excellent Texas swing, you nailed it. You are extremely lucky in that Janice can sing anything!

It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that Texas swing!

Excellent work all the way around.


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

Thanks Janne. Janice makes it all easy for me. I write a lyric, suggest a genre, and she quickly creates a melody. She’s so modest that I have to brag on her. When we left our bluegrass band years ago I never thought we’d have a chance to explore so many genres. It’s been fun.

We appreciate your kind comments!

Stefan, great to see you back around!

Thanks for your and Maha’s kind words. Janice was happy to read that you liked the harmony and extra thanks for mentioning the mix.

We appreciate your support!

Been wanting to listen to this for a few days. But been trying to nurse Di back to something similar to reasonable health. Can't tell you how many times I've played songs similar to this (but they weren't quite as good).

This is one of my very favorite genres ... Asleep At The Wheel (Ray Benson & company) my favorite group. Of course there was Bob Wills and Sons Of The Pioneers, plus others. And then Janice, Bud and Peter show up and put some icing on the cake.

And Janice whistles!!! Never could. And now that my teeth are falsies, there's no more hope! Peter, ya sound great! Bud, yuou're a knob-turning magician!

So danged good! Loved it from first note to last.
