This week, we celebrate Thanksgiving here in America, and we’d like to give thanks to everyone who reads the Jamz every week. We do this for you and hopefully you’ve all found some decent groups throughout the year. We’ll be rounding up our faves in a couple weeks and there are still two spots open for the Reader’s Choice HDJs, which will be coming up soon. Until then, hold on tight because we’ve got another rip-roaring, good time jams for y’all this week. No turkeys in sight! Get it? Turkeys….Thanksgiving…..ha ha ha…whatever…
