Hi Janice and Bud
I do not think I am qualified to provide any critique other that I loved your version, well done and Peter's riffs was absolutely spot on. To my ears and heart, a fantastic tribute to PD day and a testament to your skill as musicians
Regards
Chris

Tapping my feet and dancing with a BIG smile on my face. Good job!!! Well worth waiting for it to be in the public domain so you guys could do the arrangement! :-) Hats off :-) Janice, Bud, and Peter,
Just freakin' killer. Love the Berry vibe--such a sweet, rocking guitar solo. Can't help but tap the foot and rock the head on this one. Very cool!
Best regards,
Deej Thanks much appreciated. Peter

Great version, can't go wrong with pipes like that and pro production to boot. I noticed Nessun Dorma is on the list of 2020 PD songs, any chance we'll be hearing a version of that? ; ) I seriously doubt it Thanks for listening and commenting. Glad you liked it! J&B

I love your version of the song!
Peter's guitar is kicking, and so is Janice's vocal performance.
Great production. Smashing all around!
Plus 1 to that- an absolutely irresistible rock revival sound. Robert

Hi Janice and Bud,
A very nice performed rock and roller, that's for sure! You gave the song a lot of sparks, Janice. Listened it several times, while tapping my feet 'though it was still around 10 o'clock. Must be something wrong with me, I'm afraid. I enjoyed it,
Hans Hahaha! Glad it got you moving. Thanks! J&B

WOW! You three created some stellar and powerful sounds here. What a great tribute to 60's rock ... my favorite decade for the genre. Peter's guitar work is second to none ... simply fantastic! And you guys already know my thoughts about Janice's "to-die-for" vocals. Her pipes are so sweet and true ... she has a real gift. And Bud ... you are a knob-turner supreme. Those Nashville, LA, Atlanta and New York producers don't have a trick you don't know .. and that you do way better than they do.
That was a treat with extra sugar and icing. I'm always left in awe of your productions. You folks give music a very good name. Best to all three of you ...
Alan

Dear Ms. Merritt, 'Bud', 'PeterF' and...did I miss anyone ??? OOO-wee, now, that was the rocking-est version of See See Rider that these here ears ever did listen to !!! Ms. Merritt, your vocal performance was so exuberant that I shouted out, "You go, gurl !!! I imagined you hoppin' n' boppin' all 'round the studio during PeterF's solo. 'PeterF', I smelled smoke comin' from your fingers as you set them strings on fire. Hope you had a bucket a' water handy to cool things off a li'l bit. 'Bud', as always, every sound of every instrument, musical as well as vocal, comes through a set of speakers like a house party held on a rooftop. Go on wit' cho' ba-a-a-d self !!! Only time I ever heard this song before listening to you all's version, was on a Verve album from the 60's titled 'The Essential Jazz Vocalists" featuring Big Bill Broonzy on gee-tar and vocals. It was the sound of the most lonesome blues your heart could stand. It's amazing how a song performed in one style can be re-imagined and performed in a totally different genre, ain't it??? See you later, 'See See Rider' !!! LOREN

For me it is like a new song. I don't think I know the original or maybe I just don't recognize it.
Anyway it is a fabulous song you have recorded here, very true to the Chuck Berry style which I listened a lot to when I was a child... that is how I learned about Rock'n Roll.
The vocal is wonderful, the guitar work great... and the mix is outstanding. Just a perfect track, like so many times before from you guys!
Will You & Janice & Peter have done a tremendous job on this tune... Loved listening to your rendition!
Good work & a great collaboration... Thanks for making my day so much brighter! This is really well done. You guys have added your own touch to this great tune. May have ago at it my self. Congrats to all and thanks for posting. All the best.Rob4580 Thanks for all the positive feedback - much appreciated. Peter

PB&J,
All the stellar aspect of this hit you in a quick sequence. The lead guitar. Oh yeah! The drums! Love that snappy snare! That bass. Pumpin'. Clean and crisp, yet fat. That piano. Ahhhh... Then last and by NO means least (most actually)...That Vocal!
An impeccable mix.
Cool claps.
Peter's lead is awesome. Truly sharing the stage with that amazing vocal.
A little bump in the overall energy around the 2 minute mark. Perfect.
One of your best.
Music. Pure and simple.
fj Thanks for continuing to make us feel we are on the right track with this music thing. Your encouragement and counsel makes it easier for us to consider these "venture out" productions. I (Bud) never dreamed my bluegrass gal would be singing like this We appreciate every word you wrote. J&B PS: Thanks for handclaps

Good ol' kick @ss Rock n Roll, loved it.
You had me before the intro was finished. Great guitar work, super groove, great mix, and, as usual, outstanding vocals.
My foot was tapping and my face smiling all through this.
Thanks Mario. One for us ole pharts I guess!

Hi Janice, hi Bud,
WHAT A TREAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Especially for a guy who can celebrate his own "See See Rider" anniversary this year: I think that it was exactly 50 years ago that I played that very song publically myself for the first time, followed by many more occasions: Because it was, is and will always be one of my favorite American classics.
How good a song is can easiyly be told by the number of good versions and this one can really present a long list of famous names - you named but a few.
And this is the truth and nothing but the truth: You did not just do another cover, but really added a top-notch version to that list. The version you linked to is so custum-made for Janice - Janice, the energy you're putting into the vocal part is amazing. And the harmony singing - no-one can do that the way you do: just grand.
Looking at the 'band' I had to smile: Those Keith Richard styles have become almost indispensable for me! When arranging an uptempo song it's always a good idea to have a look at them...
Peter, great playing as we've become used to long before - you really showing us where it's at again and again.
Maybe I overlooked something, but I couldn't find the Chuck Berry version that I'm very keen to listen to. Without the existence of that great guy I'd probably be playing glockenspiel in a Bavarian traditional band.
Ah no...
Janice, Bud: Please do not let this genre slide: Both of you are far too good at it.
Thanks fir that wonderful production and all the best,
Stefan
Thank you so much and it's cool that you played this song back in the day! I don't think there is a Chuck Berry version of the song...that was completely Peter's idea to play that style on it. We had no idea until he sent it to us Janice very much appreciates your kind remarks about her vocal. Thanks for your time to listen, comments and support!! J&B

Very nicely done rock n' roll version of this classic song. Very tasty guitar (there's no substitute for the real thing), and excellent vocals.

Excellent! Actual rock n roll :-)
Thanks!
J&B
Great balls of fire! It starts out the gate blazing and doesn't let up. Excellent vocals, guitar solo, energy, mix... that hold at 0:58 is such a great setup for the guitar solo, and the claps at 1:58 push into the last section. Fantastic job by everyone. I almost picked up the CLA toolkit at the last Waves sale, just because your mixes sound so awesome. Of course, the real "secret sauce" is Bud and the band. You are too kind. Thanks! Those Waves plugins are great. Go for it! J&B Wonderful!! It's firing on all cylinders! Vocals are beautiful! Guitar is perfect for the feel of the song! Great!!! Thanks, Torrey We appreciate that! J&B

Great song! Great job, guys! Janice, your vocals are always tops. Great job on the guitars, Peter.
I got to know Wayne Cochran, back in the early 80's when I was in Houston. Was privileged to get to play with him a couple times. He was one of the pioneers of Rock n Roll, and his rendition of this song was an inspiration for Elvis to start singing it. Wayne was a fun, and crazy guy. He passed away back in 2017. This song always reminds me of him.
Really enjoyed your rendition!
Steve
Thank you Steve. Janice's brother mentioned Wayne Cochran when he heard the song. And I've very recently read about him in "The History Of Rock And Roll Volume 1" that I just finished. Glad it brought some memories! J&B

I think Janice was born to sing this song, and Peter to play. Wonderful backing band provided by the Box. High energy that built to the end. And it all sounds good on the phones, volume UP (as if there was another setting for this number).
