Very cool sounding tune with some SERIOUS SWING sounds!!!!!! 
 
I can't comment on the mix because I know nothing about mixing except the bass and treble keys and a little bit of reverb. 
 
Not critics from me, but maybe you could sound a little bit madder and upset? But then again that's the art of a great vocalist and I am not one so I can only say : Sounds better than I could do.
 
Enjoyed hearing this one very much! The swing feel vibe was really cool!!!
 
Thanks for sharing!!!!

Thanks everyone for the positive feedback. 
 
This is about as hard core blues as it gets. 
The walking bass line is the main riff really. 
For those who have never worked in this style it's the triplet groove that makes it "swing" 
I only quantizied some of the drum parts like the kick and hi hat. The rest I manually tweaked a little here and there.   I set the grid resolution to 1/8 triplets just as a guide. 
I didn't touch Steve's parts.
And the Audio is mostly all one take, 2 guitars , bass vocals.  I did punch in the main guitar solo as I wanted it to jump out using a different PU. 
Bass is Yamaha via Fender Rumble 100 
Guitar - Rythym Strat copy via Fender Princeton - SM 57 
            Fills my custom Tele , neck humbucker- Green Mile - Fender Princeton SM 57
            Lead solo same but Bridge PU and more Green mile ( the green mile is a Tube screamer clone by Mooer) 
Drums played  on Yamaha DX 450 into Stike2 custom pre set
