A super cut! Wonderful. You three cook together. The band rocks too. Excellent work to all of you. Very cool ending.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you too.

Thanks! And as mentioned in the lyric we will have a party of two. Just us. So we are self limiting! Have a great holiday and be safe.

Hi Janice, Bud & Peter,

well, finger calluses is definitely the only thing lacking with this uplifting and toe-tapping tune. Ever since I got to know Brian Setzer I dig rockabilly a lot.

And besides the fact that it was a wonderful idea to add some Christmas greetings and that 'thank you' for PGMusic the tune is a very enjoyable listen.

Okay, Janice, is there any style you can't sing like 'd invented it? Bud, despite the lacking finger calluses the bass sounds just great (is it miked or has it got P/Us?). (I think I will copy and paste this in the future:) Awesome sound, Bud.

Peter, as usual a wonderful job on the guitar.

Thank you, you hot threesome, for so many great productions in the course of this otherwise mean and ugly year - you made my day more than once.

Happy holidays to you all and all the best for 2021 - most of all: stay safe!!!

Take care,

Stefan

PS: Has anybody heard anything about Jim? His last post was in March and he doesn't even react to a PM...

Sexiest Christmas song since "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claude"...I mean CLAUSE! Santa CLAUSE! Sounds wonderful and so much fun. Peter's tone is killer.

Enjoy yours. Ours will pass without too much hoopla, but that's the way we like it anyway.

Well if that don’t get everybody dancing around the Christmas tree nothing will! Great idea to add the cajon along with the bass track. It worked well. The bass really drives the whole thing and Bud you certainly have a great feel for the pocket. Superb vocal and some nice tasty guitar touches round out a dilly of a rockabilly holiday treat. Nice job and Happy Holidays to all of you, Tom

Thanks for the comments on my small part in this fun project.

Loved what Janice did with the vocal - she is a real chameleon and can turn her hand to almost any vocal genre.
Also enjoy it when Bud dusts off the bass - he just needs to work on those callouses.

Hope everyone has a safe Christmas (party).

Peter

I enjoyed the entire package.
WELL DONE – it’s a cracker of a song.


Thanks man. That Holly vibe was EXACTLY what we were hoping to achieve. And thanks for the bass mention!

Nice to hear you on the bass again too.

Janice, Bud and Peter:

Another great offering—like the choice of going rockabilly with this Christmas tune. Peter adds some really cool licks throughout and Janice’s vocal is great—particularly like those little bits of scatting in the breaks between lines. Fun and foot-tapping stuff!

Have a Merry Christmas!

Hi Janice and Bud.
This is an absolute jolly and rollicking joy from start to finish. At the end it is interesting to hear your (Janice) delightfully captivating spoken word accent which is very charming. Looking forward to hearing more of your exemplary music in the new year.
p.s. Thank you for all your moral support that is so important and appreciated by this newbie.
