Kenny,
I'm sitting here listening and really liking what I'm hearing. The mix is great, the arrangement is polished and the writing is really strong. You sound really comfortable singing in this style.
Four minutes of enjoyable listening from start to end.
All the best,
Noel

Kenny,
You have a real knack for writing good, catchy rock songs. This is another in a continuous stream...
A good band to present it, too. Your lead was nice (just a touch too loud).
A solid write.
A terrific listen. Could see the Stones doing this...

I really like the energy of this song, and I lOVE the vocal style, it reminds me of one of my favorite artists, Mitch Easter, the guy who recorded R.E.M.'s first album. You should see if you can find him on the web and listen. You might be amused. Some say he is the real father of jangle rock. Great sound man.

I enjoyed listening Kenny and you have a good voice to bring this off. You are an excellent guitarist and song writer. I do agree with Floyd about the lead volume and I would have liked to hear it more in the center.

floyd Thanks floyd for always having a quick and kind post and does anybody tell Carlos Santana that his solo was a touch too loud?@#?? yuk yuk I enjoyed listening Kenny and you have a good voice to bring this off. You are an excellent guitarist and song writer. I do agree with Floyd about the lead volume and I would have liked to hear it more in the center.
Sonny Thanks Sonny, appreciate the kind words

Thanks David, man I loved your last song. I think we might have in common a love of pop styles, favorite artists maybe. I'll try to look up Easter it would be interesting I'm sure. Kenny

Kenny, Good write and very well sung. It is that most elusive of all song qualities-Catchy. Nice one, Tom Yep, catchy indeed. It stuck with us long after the spin. To our ears this is a fine write with an equally fine arrangement and production. The mix is nailed listening on our monitors. We're down with Noel -- four minutes of good listening from start to finish. J&B

Great stuff Kenny!! You never disappoint. Just a really good-feeling, good-flowing song. The vintage EP was the perfect fit. As Floyd said, cool solo but a tad too loud. Excellent stuff, as is your usual!! Take care. Greg

Band-in-a-Box 2026 Video: AI Stems & Notes - split polyphonic audio into instruments and transcribe
This video demonstrates how to use the new AI-Notes feature together with the AI-Stems splitter, allowing you to select an audio file and have it separated into individual stems while transcribing each one to its own MIDI track. AI-Notes converts polyphonic audio—either full mixes or individual instruments—into MIDI that you can view in notation or play back instantly.
