On SC I wrote they (sometimes) call me the Santa man too. Is that a good thing? For you?

Nice Christmas too,
Hans


Hahahha! Thanks Hans....

I've only been here one year so it's brand new for me, and what a great one it is. Outstanding Christmas blues song!

Dear Janice, dear Bud,

... I'm afraid I'm a bit belated - you just don't look into the forum pages for 2 or 3 days and you're already missing a lot of hot stuff...

Like this one - I don't think that I've heard it before, so I can't compare it to a previous version, but what the heck: This one is sooooo great. Love thos easy-coming lyrics, and who could ever bring them 'onto tape' more easily than you, Janice.

I do love the arrangement very much, the harmonica is a gas. Everything sounds so fresh and clear - Bud, you really got the hang of making a production sound absolutely pro.

Love this one very, very much and I'm really looking forward to the stew you'll be cooking in 2020. I think I can already smell something ... yam...

I wish you all the best, I am extremely happy that I met you and your music here on the forum.

All the best,

Stefan

Coool sounding blues. Janice, your performance is stellar! Bud, I did not hear this first time, so will comment on what I am hearing now. You done excellent work in mixing/mastering this. Got nice vintage vibe to it, as this style of music deserves, yet everything is audible and vocals are clear! Thumbs up to one of my favorite creative teams!
BTW, love the photo.

Thank you for sharing!

Misha.


Thanks for the kind words and for your support throughout the year. Happy Holidays and we look forward to your productions during the new year!

Keep 'em coming.


Thanks! Our forum member and friend PeterF plays great blues guitars on nearly all of our blues/blues rock and many other productions. But we hated to ask during the holidays smile

There's nothing I like better than listening to Janice singing against a blues backing. Her vocals and the blues sit together so comfortably that it's like that proverbial match made in heaven.

I'd love to be able to write in the blues format as well as you two do. Unfortunately, it's a genre that challenges me so all I can do is sit back, listen and enjoy... and when it's a J&B creation, that's a really, really easy thing to do!

Many good tidings for Christmas and 2020,
Noel


Thanks Noel for saying that and many thanks for your support over the years. We hope you are enjoying the holidays!
