Professional. All elements are in perfect balance, no million dollar producer could make this any better. So clear and airy mix, I especially enjoy how the piano is present. And bass. And drums etc.
Peter could share the stage equally with any famous blues guitarist.
And Janice's voice and singing, what emotions to express the sad situation in the story. "No, no", "help me, help me", never heard distress so painfully present.
And yes, I surely will listen to your new album many times.
Janne

Beautiful and professional sounding rendition.
Peter's guitar is ace.
Vocal is so heartfelt. I can feel your pain.

Hi Janice, Bud and Peter,
I love what you do with old songs. You bring them back and not only that, you make it a brand new song;
new clothes, shinny shoes and teeth brushed. Excellent!
I think in Ukraine they will all sing along with it, with their boken dams. Maybe in another language, but Janice keeps the lead!
And a month ago we would have done the same in my country as well. Very rainy for weeks, cold and very windy.
But suddenly the weather changed. Very hot, no rain for 30 days. I think it's worse than the dessert now. So make us a song about that.
Beside all this bullshit, my first sentence stays! Excellent
Hans
It's not BS Hans. We, too, are having very odd weather with day after day of storms that are not typical for this time of year. "... new clothes, shinny shoes and teeth brushed."  Glad you liked it and we wish the best to you! J&B

Y'all...
Peter's guitar is delicious. Relaxed, expressive, musical. Feel
Nice beefy piano. Great tone. Perfect for the song and production (an often overlooked aspect).
The Bass sits Perfectly. Providing a solid bottom without screaming "I AM HERE".
Killer Mix. SO good you don't think about it. P-R-O.
Oh... That... Vocal.
The woman is a Star.
As. Good. As. It. Gets.
(really)

Ok, one question, to Janice: how on Earth do you do it? You sound better and better with each song. Clearer, sassier, raspier (perhaps, in this song) ... what's your secret? I may pay for it, if needs be, but I need to know, so I may apply it to my own songs, if at all possible Regardless, what a rendition. Superb, nuanced-in-every-detail singing. Great production. One can tell Bud's done his backstage work properly, here - but it must surely, surely be made so much easier when you have such a voice to work with, right? Maybe I need singing lessons, haha ...  - but enough about me, this is a superbly done song, howsoever it has been done! Congratulations to all involved Peter: great, great guitar playing - the perfect foil for the solo line Absolutely well done, to all

J&B+Peter
This is undoubtedly your territory. Excellent musical rendition and ACE vocal performance!
Radio quality mix. Enjoyed it! Being almost 100 years young, very relevant, especially considering current events.
Thank you for sharing.
Misha. Thank you Misha for the thoughtful and supportive comments. We all three appreciate it! J&B

Janne Thank you for mentioning so many things we had hoped to achieve. Your comments about the mix are very meaningful as we worked hard to get an open airy live band feel. The drums, bass and piano took some time to set up on the soundstage. So thanks for those and all your comments. J&B

Outstanding job by all involved.
A great version of this blues tune.
Loved the guitar work.
https://soundcloud.com/user-646279677BiaB 2024 Windows For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

When I listen to any of you tunes I always hope to be able to say "this is your best yet", but no, that would be a deserve to any of your songs. Great production!

J&B (and Peter):
I’m late to the game here . . . and as such I have nothing creatively new I can say to add the well deserved accolades of our fellow BIABers above. I agree with them all.. Just wanted to chime in and share my admiration for such an amazing recording . . . everything about it is top notch. A smoking killer!

I've never heard of Backwater Blues or Bessie Smith, but I really like what you guys have done here.
Lots of soul and feeling.
Great work from all involved!

That is greatly appreciated. You mentioned all of our goals. And thank you for mentioning the piano and the bass. Considerable effort was put into the fx and levels on them…really happy you liked it. And your kind words about the guitar and vocals are very special. Thanks! J&B
