You guys are quite a team.
Love that country swing.
Great job.

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.

Loved it y'all.

Thanks a bunch David! Cool and humbled to remind you of that show … we were frequent listeners of it.

Hi Bud, Janice, Peter and Floyd,

A lovely song, and how nice to hear Janice and Floyd both singing in it!
Their voices sound very, very good together.
And together with that lovely song, it's really swings.
Peter and his guitar surely helps letting it does. Good work!

But the lyrics... man, what a mean sister and lousy men you had to face, Janice!
Story of your live (in songs). And now living in the outskirts of... fun?
No, love it a lot!

You guys are super superb, and I am ever grateful. I wasn't here then, and much enjoy this remake. Man, Janice is one of my favorite Blues singers. I don't care about acents; it's all about the feel and she puts that in every song she sings. You four inject an abundance of feel and professional talent. This song has it all. You are never on the outskirts; you're full on fun.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Very good job by all involved, I really enjoyed the listen.

Good luck on finding that real saloon. 😀
Glad you liked the country venture. We always appreciate your comments.

Love this - hard to believe I missed it all those years ago, but glad you surfaced this one again for a refresh.

floyd: harmony vocals

You are too kind Bob! Being referenced to the Wrecking Crew in any manner is most humbling. Glad you liked our Western Swing thing. 😀

All that talent loaded into one song. Thanks for resurrecting the song for the rest of us. Janice shows her versatility. I'd like to hear more of this genre. Floyd's harmony blends well with her voice. Darn good song too.

Thank you Brad! We’ve listened to Western Swing for years and used to play a bit of it back in our bluegrass band days.

Glad you liked it,

Howdy J&B....and collaborators.
I dig this.
Cool title and topic.
Great lead vox & BGV per usual along with Peters' axe work. (I wanna learn to sing someday :))

Very well done!

Excellent and fun tune. Enjoyed my listen a ton!!

Nice to hear about your roots, yes, this songs sounds like your natural genre, but so does blues and many other you have explored, BIAB makes us all multi-talents smile The story has the feel of positive liberation and the lightly bouncing music reflects it nicely. Great vocals and floyd's harmonies are especially enjoyable. Peter's solo and Bud's mix leave nothing to desire.

OUTSTANDING. All of you. Absolutely outstanding. Well done, Janice, in particular, for carrying off that solo ever so well, and for your part in writing this song. The whole thing is top notch, though. The harmonies with floyd are perfect. Peter's guitar playing is like he was born to do this thing (which I think he was!) ... and boy, it sounds like you're all having so much FUN - which is why we do this in the first place. Well done, Bud, for the lyrics - a big part of the reason why this sounds like so much fun - had me smiling the whole time, through smile Hats off to you all!

Thank you Marty. I (Bud) have often thought that Janice sings like a method actor. She puts herself totally into the song while working on it and then walks away from it after recording. 😀 And you are so right - it’s all about feeling.

Glad you liked it!

Thanks for the kind words Hans. Well, Janice has four sisters but none would throw her out! 😀

And we appreciate you mentioning floyd and Peter. They nailed it.

That's a great song. Nice work with the vox, harmony and instruments.

I totally enjoyed this one.
