There is such "presence" in this - both the instrumentation and the vocal (needless to say). The elements all work together to capture the era perfectly. Excellent mix.
And a "fresh" Christmas song by reaching into the past... cool.
The vocal sounds and feel like a classic "perfect one take" - oozing spontaneity...
Sweet!
Merry Christmas, y'all!!! (What accent? That's what I thought!)

I don't think the song is too late in regards to the Holiday season! In fact, I think it's perfect timing!  It's crazy to think that Christmas is this weekend. I'm running out of time to get everything done. But back to the song -- I found this a really cute, uplifting song and really enjoyed it! Thanks for sharing.
Cheers,
Ember

This was just so much fun! listen to it a couple of days ago but just now getting around to comment - danged flu bug!
This is just what I needed to cheer me up as I listened again. I love Rock-a-billy - got one or two somewhere in the process. I often think of the days I listened to Carl Perkins, early Elvis and early John cash songs. That deep guitar reverb is such a signature part of the sound.
Janice's vocal's are always among the very best on the site. This is just further proof. Great arrangement and production.
And Merry Christmas to both of you!
Alan Al, thanks for the positive and supportive comments! It was a quick production but I did spend some time trying get that delay/reverb interplay to work on the guitar and the vocal. J&B

J&B, This is a good time Christmas tune and should make the playlist of all Christmas parties. Bud it sounds like you've got the not so distant cousins delay and reverb figured out. The backing forms the perfect framework for Janice's perfectly executed bluesy vocal. Great outro! Merry Christmas to you both, Tom Hey Tom, thanks for the supportive and positive review. We appreciate all the kind remarks and are really happy that you felt the delay/reverb combo worked. And Merry Christmas back to you and yours.

Hello, Janice & Bud
A very fun Christmas tune!
It is really good that lots of reverb and delay and a near mono mix aiming for that 50's sound.
And it is very tasty that Janice's singing has a little bit blues feel as usual.
Loved it! Enjoy "your" Christmas Party.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year!
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
