"It's always fun to jam with friends, but it's very special when those friends are a part of an organization that is making a major impact on the world," Schlitt says. "Considering the season, 'Taxman' seemed the most appropriate song among the many that we had fun with. What started out as just friends getting together to jam turned into something that we thought was worth sharing with the Jay Sekulow Live! radio show and on YouTube for our many friends."

Schlitt has worked with Sekulow, who is a regular contributor on Fox News and C-SPAN, on several projects in the past, including shooting the video for "Faith & Freedom," a single from Schlitt's current CD, The Greater Cause. The video was featured at the 2012 Faith and Freedom Celebration, held in connection with the Republican National Convention last summer in Tampa, Fla. "I've been a lifelong fan of John Schlitt, and this was a special treat for me to have him be a part of this video; it was lots of fun," Sekulow says. "This recording came out of a jam session and we thought everyone would enjoy a light moment as they prepare their taxes."

In addition to Schlitt on vocals and Sekulow on drums, the band consisted of Marco Pangallo on guitar and background vocals, Joe Pangallo on guitar, Scott Kirkman on bass guitar, and William Haynes on background vocals.
