What a great sound! Combining gospel and "I Love Rocknroll", very haunting, several centuries of music presented so well. Janice's vocals, the backing vocals and the Peter's guitar make this near divine experience.

Hi Janice and Bud, and Peter,
When listening to the song all kind of thoughts entered my head.
From threatening movies dealing with slavery, the gospelchoirs marching in streets, to even a Dutch band, in the 70's, calling themself by this name, and so on...
I can't surpass all those beautiful compliments you received on this song, so I suffice with saying it is a very, very strong, beautiful song. Of course Janice vocals are at her best (again). so pleasant listening to. But I must not forget Bud and Peter! Without them Janice would have been the only star...

Hi Team!
This tune gave me goosebumps. Sooo good! One of the best tunes to my taste that I have heard by you. Janice vocals shine, those oohs, harmonies! Peter's guitar meant to be! Bud excellent showcase of your magic. Really like this one. Thank you for sharing!
Misha.
Thanks Misha. Those are very supportive comments that mean a lot to us. Put a big smile on Janice’s face  This was a fun project that came together quicker than most. BTW, your latest project is stellar! J&B

Tremendous! Excellent throughout! Janices vocals… What can you say? Beautiful! I especially liked the way you took it out at the end with a combination of voice and guitar licks.. very nice! Thank you very much. And we appreciate you mentioning the outro! It was a bit of a spontaneous thing. J&B

Janice, Bud & Peter.
Beyond outstanding! The arrangement shows a goose-bumps good understanding of less-is-more
in this genre. Janice sings this ( and those amazing bgv`s) so well- its hard to imagine anyone shading her feel and phrasing.
I thought the deep bass drum was a bodhran it has that kind of oomph.
Definitely one of your best.
Robert Wow. That’s much appreciated Robert. Thanks for mentioning the arrangement. It progressively got simpler I (Bud) thought about playing bass but then we would’ve been bereft of any RT’s. Janice much appreciated your comments on the vocals. Thanks! J&B

Wow! Very moving. Wonderfully played and sung. I've never heard it before. I like it. So, Johnny Cash never did a version on his American Recordings?
I don't understand this:

Hi Janice, Bud and Peter
The roots of blues are here in this song and they reach our heart.
Kudos to you. Christian

I've said it before and I'll say it again, the lady can sing!
This is so well done, you three. You nailed the vibe and the density of the music keeps the listener fully engaged the entire time.
Standing ovation.
p.s. I won't be surprised when you announce this will be featured in a film or tv show.
Thanks for listening and commenting. We're glad you liked it. Sometimes the fewer the tracks the harder it is to nail the vibe...but we do try! J&B

Wow just loved this. Super vocal. I did not know this song. Awesome introduction to the song. Loved Peters guitar. Thanks for including the recording equipment. I have been spending way more time learing the recording aspect to the songs then actually playing. Such a clean well balanced production.

Simply top notch. Everything in this track just oozes presence and power. Janice's vocals sit perfectly in the soundstage - powerful, yet filled with subtle nuances, and you can hear every one. The kick drum sound is killer. Peter's guitar work blends perfectly, and adds color and spirit. Everything already said about the mixing, mastering - spot on. It doesn't get any better than this.

Thanks for all the kind comments regarding my part in this project.
Janice certainly excelled and those backing vocals are sublime.
Always a pleasure to be invited in on one of these tracks by Bud & Janice(and ensuring I can do justice to the vocal always keeps me on my toes). Bud always makes me sound good!

As a huge blues fan, I've heard a buncha versions of this. The lead vox as always were great but the background vox gave me the shivers (in a good way). I imagine this took some work to get just right. Congrats to the whole team, not easy for grey folk to do roots music this well, but you did. Hey, thanks for all of that and it means a lot to us especially given that you are familiar with the song. And you are right it did take some attention. The fewer the tracks the harder for me! J&B

Oooooooo! That acapella opening is so captivating. Janice always sings well, but she is really in her element here. The interpretation and production is simply an outstanding piece of work.
Awe inspiring. Did I mention that I liked this?

GOOSEBUMPS.
Just when it seems like y'all could not raise the bar ANY higher... stratosphere.
Every aspect of this done to perfection.
Y'all are up there with the best at making a PD song your own.
Killer vocal. Period.
Super percussion. The cajon and claps - so cool...
Peter's guitar is excellent.
The sparse use of tracks is done perfectly.
Mix... impeccable.
Music. As good as it gets.
fj Sometimes I (Bud) in the midst of my pessimism regarding my productions get a glimpse that I might be doing something right. Confirmation like this is overwhelming. Thank you. And lil sis said thank you so much big brother! J&B

Wow. This is a great. The sparse arrangement really lets the talent shine through, but all the elements are balanced and serve the song. Polished and raw at the same time.  Love the cajon. It's amazing what can be done with that box. A number of years ago, my son was playing his cajon at youth conference. The sound guy miked it up and did some magic with the EQ - it got a nice low thump and crisp snap of the snares. Almost a full drum kit sound.

Wow. Always thought I loved this song, but now... you guys, your version, requires a whole new word. SO excellent. All the guitars, voices and percussion are so emotional. Thanks for doing this and sharing it. You guys are inspirational.
