Hi J&B.
Janice, you sound to be having SO much fun there!
Incredible bit of vocalising with absolutely superb improvisation, but yet always still in control.
Now that's the sort of Christmas song I DO like.
Wonderful stuff, you two.
Have a super Christmas.
ROG. Thank you Rog. It was fun and so was the duet we did this year! Thanks for your support and comments. We appreciate it! Merry Christmas J&B

Hey You two!
Is this too cool, or what? We say "too cool"! We love 12 bar shuffle blues ...one of our very favorites song styles. Great Christmas pick-me-up! Dui and I still say Janice sounds a lot like Susan Tedechi ... and that ain't a bad thing.
Great stuff! We totally loved it!
Merry Christmas and hoping for a great and healthy 2017!
Alan & Di Wow! That is so nice of y'all to say that. That's a tough one to live up to. We've missed you and are glad you are back around. Best to you in 2017 and thanks! J&B What a fun track! Janice has a great voice for blues, enjoyed the listen! Thanks! J&B

This ain't your daddy's bluegrass. Great song and excellent production and performance. You guys are so versatile. This was a fun listen.
Charlie Thanks Charlie. Glad you enjoyed it. J&B What a great riff on the ending! Girl you can Sang!!! It's easy to hear influences of older blues singers and it's easy to imagine that you both have been studying ,listening to and absorbing the blues genre for a long time. The mix sounds great as usual. The four real tracks are not directly related to each other but work spectacularly well together. The bass is killer. Don't forget to leave a note for Santa containing the link along with his milk and cookies so he can use bluetooth to stream it in his sleigh. He'll be rocking by the time he hits Florida. Tom Thanks Tom. You are too kind regarding the bass. You are right...Janice listens to a lot of old blues. Santa took the note so maybe he liked the tune We appreciate your support! J&B

Flat-Out Good.
This should be playing at the mall.
MERRY CHRISTMAS, Y'ALL!
(Bud - you need to replace that fedora with a Santa hat!)
Thanks. Nah, just got a red fedora! J&B Instant Christmas Classic! love it.
Kenny Thanks Kenny! J&B Janice and Bud,
The minute Janice started singing, it sounded like home base! My first impression was "This style sits with Janice's voice and Bud's engineering as comfortable as an old and favourite shoe". Everything rings with authenticity and polish. I really enjoyed just sitting back in my chair, admiring the talent on show and listening... first class music.
Hope you both have a terrific Christmas!
Noel Thank you Noel and thanks for your support throughout the year! J&B J&B,
Wow, you`ve mixed sexy with Christmas and made it rock!
Great vocals that add just a enough spice to the lyrics.
Thanks for livening up the season,
Robert

Hi, Janice & Bud !:))
Though Santa has already
appeared and gone for the
previous year I must say
that this was just a wonderful
little bluestyped tune that
was so delicately sung, orchestrated
and mixed !
Cheers
