Hi J and B,
Just listened to your nice boogie-song. Sound like the old days, but better of course, because of the vocals!
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.... J&B Now that's a fun twist of lyrics... Very nice bit of work! Thank. Glad you liked the lyric! J&B

What a groove! Nice production on a cool, bluesy Christmas song, Janice and Bud! I'm with Mr_Songman...wanted it to be longer with some instrumental breaks thrown in. Bravo and Merry Christmas!

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

J&B,
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! J&B Hi guys, This is way too good to be oh so short. How about sticking a couple of guitar breaks in there after each pair of verses. It is the blues after all. And a damn good one. 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 J&B

Janice and Bud,
This version pf "Santa Man" really does the job and then some.
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! J&B J&B loved this tune. the lyrics and music superb. Vocals
can't get any better. Congratulations.
Mike B.
We appreciate you listening and writing such a nice comment!
