Janice & Bud,

This is absolutely beautiful... I must have missed this the first time around.

Such beauty in the way Janice delivers the vocal. Sweet production - glad you brought this one back around.

So excellent.

Hats off to y'all. Very good song, and it all starts with the song - great team writing. Everyone shined here, but a special kudos to Bud - you really did a great job at putting all that talent together for terrific production. Just excellent.

Bud and Janice
Whats most amazing about this brilliant song is that I first heard it 7 years ago, that went way too fast.
Always one of my favourites, great performances by all involved and a wonderful melody.
Great vocal, excellent mix,lovely guitar hook and floyd always sounds superb with Janice.
Excellent.

I recall this from its release years ago. It's just as fantastic second time around. First rate write, arrangement, production and performance.

Janice, Bud, floyd and Tom,

Nice collaboration!
Everyone's country spirit is exploding.
I can hear the true value of Janis' vocals in such slow ballads.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Loved it.

Exceptional write. Sounds like a hit song to me.

"in the corner, a battered Martin left for dead
while mystic chords of memory play... in his head" Great lyric hook!

Vocal is wonderful (as I have come to expect quite a while ago)

I've known a few people who fit nicely into that song's storyline. They did it because they loved the music but never got out of the hole in the wall honky tonk bars.

Nicely done with the song. Everything fit nicely and was done well.


Thank you Herb. And yes we also agree with NY regarding the burn out vs fade away sentiment.

Glad you liked it!

Thanks Scott. Starting from scratch with this remix was a lot of fun.

A song for the still inspired has been in all of us!
Gorgeous vocal rom Janice, which, with the plangent fiddle puts a lump in the throat.
Great harmonies, crystal clear production and, above all a very, very good write; well done to everyone involved!

Perfect, sparse arrangement that gives everyone room to shine.


We all appreciate that! And sparse is good … nearly all the time in our book. Abandon the mix when there is nothing left to take away.

What a wonderful review to respond to over a cup of morning coffee. You are very kind in your comments and they are much appreciated by all of us.

Hi Janice, Bud, Floyd and Tom.

This is absolutely stunning listening. Everything about it fits together perfectly.

I don't know if it's possible to create music any better than this.

All the very best to everyone,
Noel
