Welcome to round 17 of BoTB 2021! This is the first mid-month battle I’ve done in a long time and it’s also the last battle for the year. Earlier in the month in my S.a.D Christmas Challenge I shared Bette Midler cover of this old song. Louis Armstrong released the original in 1953 well before my time.

In today’s battle I’m using two North American swing, jump and blues bands. It’s the American, Brian Setzer Orchestra up against against the Canadian, Colin James & the Little Big Band. I’ll leave it up to you to decide which bands earns your vote.

VS

Alrighty the $10,000 question is, who gets your vote? Will it be Brian Setzer or Colin James & the Little Big Band?

Polls close noon (EST) on Dec. 21st!

Next week, same time slot I’ll be back to announce the winner in this round, so be sure to mark your calendar to see if your favorite artist wins in this showdown. I’d like to encourage you to visit other BOTBers below where you will find more showdowns underway. I’ll be here tomorrow with more music in my Song-a-Day (S.a.D) Christmas Challenge series and I hope you’ll stop by! X💋X💋, Cathy

I invite you to visit BoTBers with showdowns going on today.
