YES!!! Love the groove happening with this one.
Vocal arrangements are GREAT! Love the BGV's. Janice reminds me somewhat of Imelda May on this one, the phrasing mostly. Very, very good!
Peter's playing is right in the pocket of course, as per usual.
Great mix, Bud, also as per usual!
Lovely stuff, well done guys and gal!

Hi Team,
I got a very 1950s vibe from this one.
Everything about it fitted the era perfectly for me and I loved
the walking bass line and Janice's relaxed, swing vocal delivery.
Peter's guitar work was super, but I might have preferred a slightly
more jazz-style tone to fit with the vibe of the smooth backing track.
Great arrangement and mix as always.
Excellent.
ROG.
Hey ROG, thanks for everything! You can blame me (Bud) for the absence of a more jazz like solo. Peter sent me a lot of tracks including a jazzy solo and I picked this one. So it ain’t the guitar man’s fault  Thanks again for your continued support! J&B Hi Bud, Just to clear up any misunderstanding, it was only the tone of the guitar which I might have changed, not the solo which I thought was great. I've always respected Peter's playing and had no problem with what he did this time. What I was saying is that I might have mellowed out the guitar track to fit better with the 50s vibe which I could hear. Basically, just running off some of the top end on that track. At the end of the day, it's a great song and I was just being picky! Cheers, ROG. Rog The original concept was quite a bit jazzier than it turned out. The remnant of the original approach is in the chord progression, if you listen you will hear the solos are over a jazz blues progression whereas the vocals are not. I liked how Bud evolved the song and kept elements of the original. The jazz guitar take will have to wait for the outtakes on the "Box set"  ...... Peter

Janice, Bud, Peter...
As always, top-shelf music.
The BAND is in top form. Bass sounds great. The acoustic is PERFECT (often an overlooked or over accentuated part of a full mix). Drums are seamless. Organ is tasty. Peter's guitar work fits in like a seasoned part of this band. (One of my favorite leads from him).
A superb mix.
"Preacher told me I gotta change my ways
Ain’t gonna happen, no matter what he says
He’s just spouting that holier than thou tone
Forget it Rev, I’m looking for a no fault zone
No worries, no warnings, it’s a no fault zone
Not gonna say I’m sorry, not gonna brag on how I’ve grown"
Nice. Great refrain!
Deb is sitting here. She just said "How does she DO that!? She has THE GREATEST voice!"
I'll leave it at that.
fj
PS - nice album cover! Well mr jane you offered complimentary remarks on every objective we tried to reach on this production. The three of us are very appreciative of that. We don’t take such support for granted. And Janice had only “wow” to say when she read Deb’s comment! So big thanks! J&B

Hi Bud, Janice and Peter,
What a lovely, cheerful song! (Despite what happens in the lyrics)
I do liked the modest way of singing in it with the very nice harmonies.
Again, no complains at all on any part of the song. So no expertise from me is needed here ;-)
I can only say, take a good sip of whatever booze you like and enjoy your earnings for this very good job you did.
I drink a rum and coke at this moment so I can toaste with you!
Hans And a small batch bourbon toast back to you ... accompanied by a thanks for your nice comments! J&B

Hello Janice and Bud,
Jazzy atmosphere that puts us directly in the mood. Jani's voice, always so sensual, still pleases us as much. The lead guitar and the Hammond organ reinforced this warm atmosphere. The mix is great. Well done.

Very catchy timeless feel-good song, a bit sinful story but an independent woman singing about choosing her own way is a modern subject Playing, singing, mixing and selecting the right RTs are once again flawless. Janne

A very catchy song everything coming together nicely with an excellent vocal, that bass and Peters guitar shinning throughout
Credit to the engineer for putting it all together as well.
Enjoyed the listen.

J&B and Peter,
That chorus is really well done;lyrics cleverly tongue in cheek and a cool swinging melody to match.Janice puts her unmistakeable quality ( like she`s right across the room singing just for you!) into the vocals and harmonies.
Its interesting to read all the different genre places this sends listeners... and it seems you had a few choices style wise to pick from ( with a gypsy fiddle,like Tunemonger, I could have heard Dan hicks in this).
I like the choices you made and Peter`s fine contribution.
Robert

Hi Janice and Bud,
I had such a hard time pinning this song down! It sounded kind of 50ish. I heard shades of Patsy Cline, while at the same time Shania Twain. Although most of the instruments are labeled as "jazz", it sounded like an old country tune coming from the guy who owns the best sounding radio in town...
You folks consistently put some really good sounding and unique tunes. Thanks for posting, I enjoyed the listen. Thanks! Those are very kind words. We had a hard time pinning it down also and went through several genre permutations. We are happy you like where it landed! J&B

Yessiree. Another breezy, swinging tune, with Janices sultry vocals and Peter's tasty guitar contributions. I gotta say, when I see Janice and Bud on the label, my expectations are already high and you never disappoint. I really enjoyed the lyrics and the story about the No Fault Zone. Great guitar work on there Peter! You folks make great collaborations - looking forward to more

Sounding like Dan Hicks and the Hot Licks to me, loved the jazz element, and Mr. Guitar was up to the task. Clever lyric and it got my foot going. Love that Ron Carter Walking Bass. Excellent work, folks! Thanks. I had not thought about Dan Hicks but yeah! I used to listen to the Hot Licks a lot. Need to revisit. Glad you liked the lyric and bass. J&B

The thing about you producing so many quality songs is that I get to expect it from you every time I click on a new song link. The amazing thing is that you never disappoint.
Janice is, well, Janice. 'Nuff said. The production is crisp and clear as a bell. Nothing more to say - another top level production! When are you guys coming down from that top level you keep maintaining? haha. Doesn't look like any time soon, at this rate - thank goodness. Sincerest, most genuine congratulations!

Hi Janice, Bud & Peter,
where to begin.... that is so fantastic in all aspects:
- a great 'flowing' song (I know it's not easy to write something like that)
- awesome lyrics
- Janice, that was another highlight - got the feeling that this song was custom-made for you. The BGN of the 'No worres' part is an extra treat!
- Peter: lovely work in the guitar, fits like a glove
- Bud, said it before; 'Don't know how you manage to get that sparkling and crispy sound over and over again - but I sure love it endlessly.
So incredibly good !!!!!
Take care,
Stefan Thanks Stefan for listening and taking the time to write words that put a smile on our faces. We appreciate you! J&B

I'm glad it isn't a jazz solo - the one you chose has Pete letting rip with some cool licks and a bit of expression.
The narrative is great fun and the melody is perfect as is the performance.
Better than a bought one I'd say!
Class act! Well that was nice to read! We always value your input and appreciate your time to express those thoughts. Went down real well with the morning coffee! J&B
