This is a blues tour de force. Kicked it on all levels. Brent was great but Jarvis was right there with him. Vocals and mix are super. Great work!

Wonderful blues. More than just a few shades of Sir Tom Jones in your vocal! Bravo!

Great blues, and I echo musician17, there's a lot of Tom Jones in your voice.

Very good mix and a good selection of instruments, I especially love that Dow Tomlin bass.

Oh, yeah, you have such a good voice for these songs, Nigel. Excellent choice of bandmates. Yeah, maybe Tom Jones --but better. I also like your Treat Her Right better than the one he sang. Terrific Blues sound. Much enjoyed.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Nigel,

Killer opening to this song—totally engages the listener and gets the foot tapping and head rockin’. Like those back up vocal call backs. Smokin’ blues number right hear. Great mix and stellar vocals. Very well done, sir!

All my best to you,

Deej

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.

Rocking with a nice raw instrumentation and mix. Brent fits excellently with your rough lead vocal style. I enjoyed also those nice backing vocals.

Hi Marty,

Thanks for the kind comments.

I had completely forgotten about the original "Treat Her Right" when I wrote my song. I just had a look at the amazing performance of Roy Head: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FYAB74OIeI.

Best Regards
Nigel

Rockin' blues indeed.

That is one fine display of an all BiaB ensemble ... along with an excellent vocal and mix.

Hard to go wrong with Brent and John -- excellent musicians in all the contexts we've heard them.

A little Tom vibe? ... yep. Lotta folks don't know what a heckuva blues singer he is.
Reckon you've seen the special that featured him and Lulu on some killer blues tunes.

Enjoyed it!
