J&B + Peter, Excellent take on this tune. Very lively, as it should be  Janice and Peter are the stars of the show! Nice combination of modern vocals and vintage sounding Peter's guitar (tube preset?). Bud, super playing on that upright! A friend plays "monster" bass balalaika. It is a show by itself seeing somebody play big bass, especially something intricate. I read BH comment, but I can hear your bass just fine in my semi open headphones which are not "bassy" at all. Mix is PRO level to my ears. Good stuff. Thank you for sharing. Misha. Thanks Misha. We are glad you liked it and much appreciate all your comments. Thanks for mentioning the bass also. I’ll check in with Peter and see what he’s using. J&B

Fantastic! Everything is perfect (vocals, guitar, the band, the mix, the production, the photo of Janice in the old church). One word Amen!
Bravo!
Congratulations to all involved.

Yes, we know the song (even those Dutch know it :D)
Great layers Janice.
This song invites to sing along. It's spot on.
Guitar solo is terrific!

Wowza!
I am very familiar with this song of course, I'm sure most people are, heard many versions over the years.
But you guys made it your own, love the arrangement!
Man, Janice is at the top of her game here, love all the vocal layers. Peter adds the perfect guitar parts, something he always seems to do, and Bud, you are sounding mighty fine on the upright!
Great job on the the mix too, Bud. 18 tracks!!
Really well done you three, very much enjoyed! Going to give it another spin ... Thanks for the comments on the guitar Dave, it seems to have split the field so to speak. Peter

An outstanding version of an old classic.
Everything is perfect, the bass is great, Peter's lead is fantastic, Janice's vocals outstanding, and the mix is spot on.
Gee, that is like every other song you do!
Loved it. Thanks Mario. Peter

Very nice treatment of the old classic by all of you!
Janice always nails the vocal....too easy to take her for granted because she's always spot on!
Bud, as I've commented before, you should play on more of your tunes because it always sounds great!
Peter plays a smokin' lead here! I can go either way here in desiring a clean or gritty lead! I personally would lean toward a clean chicken pickn' sound but that's just me!
Nice work as always by you folks and we expect no less! Thanks, Torrey

Wow, just wow! Consistent with what has become usual with this hymn, its form lends itself perfectly to improvised lyrics, made personal by the performer. Janice gets high marks with this one. The band is spectacular. Thank you Ed. We tried to make a joyful noise! J&B

The bass is SPOT ON...ace playing and tone Bud, - like Misha, I'm listening with open backed phones, (Sennheizer HS 515s), and there's no bass hype in these cans so the reproduced bass is pretty close to the version in the mix.
I think the fiery blues guitar parts work really well for this uptempo rendition of this song and also reinforces, with the hand claps, that it's REALLY a version.
The BIAB elements work a treat and, of course, there's Janice.
I'll simply say taht I can point to the song with a knowing nod and say "There's Janice!". Enough said. Thanks Ray. Glad you liked the song and especially the guitar as we also thought the contrast worked well. And thanks for mentioning the bass! And everything else. J&B

Oh, man, there is so much good in this --and everyone of your songs, guys. So good to hear you on that big bass, Bud, and so well-played. Perfectly appropriate. Of course, I always prefer the bass a bit louder --one of my mixing downfalls. There is so much joy in Janice and this is the perfect vehicle for it. I think Peter's solos are so much better than any other instrument could do. And that's a cool deep harmony, Peter. Right from the a cappella opening to the final Amen this is outstanding, y'all.
Marty, your support is most appreciated. Thanks for every thing above. You are too kind regarding my bass … but I’ll take it J&B

J&B&P,
Killer version.
Vocals - awesome. (well, duh)
Bass sounds great!
Peter's guitar works. Adds a nice PB&J flavor to a classic.
Piano - nice. Claps - perfectly placed (and a great sound).
Mix - perfect (as always).
LOVE the album cover!
An obvious choice for a J&B version. Done right. Amen.
fj Thanks and thanks again for your vocal mix counsel. We appreciate it all! J&B

HA!! You took me back to my Mother's church back in the country in Virginia the 60's. I was a city boy. The only thing missing were the old ladies with the cardboard fans going back and forth and the ushers dancing in the aisles!! Great performance, especially the beginning !! :-)
