If BB King were alive he'd love to do this song.
I am using the new 1040XTRAEZ form this year. It has just 2 lines.

ROG,
Terrific "big ensemble blues". The horns are nicely done (though I wished they had a bit more high end).
A good "Pop-Blues" write. Classic sounding.
LOVE your lead in this. It "speaks"! Great tone.
This is TIGHT!

This song has such a classic feel to it. And I have to agree that it does sound like a rather large band! I think that the whole arrangement is pretty spot on for what you were trying to accomplish and sounds very professional. Great job, and can't wait for the next one!
Cheers, Ember

Rog,
This is terrific! There's nothing not to like about this one. Everything fits, and well written. Love the guitar, and the sax solos, and the vocals are just right.

ROG,
A B-I-G classic sound! Great music and lyric. You really shine on this. Love these older Blues numbers. The Sudden ending took me by surprise bit I loved it!
This song really smokes! Supper job - totally loved it! Wishing you well.

Wow - what a tune! I absolutely love the groove and energy to this song. I'm definitely getting a classic 50's sort of vibe here. It's very reminiscent of BB King. It had my foot tapping in about 5 seconds. Great work, and thanks so much for sharing
Cheers, Deryk

fj Hi Floyd, Many thanks for the review - much appreciated. You may be right about the horns. I always worry about adding too much HF in case it's just my hearing which is acting as a low-pass filter! Cheers, ROG.

Great tune Rog! And a really great blues tone on that guitar! Fine work! Thanks, Torrey Hi Torrey, Pleased that you liked this one. The guitar sound is my old Jazzmaster through the Peavey Backstage 50, with the saturation up high and a line out from the headphone socket. It's all old gear, but it still has that blues sound. Many thanks for looking in. Cheers, ROG.

You know how much we love the blues and, man, does it every hit all the buttons. The write, arrangement, your vocal and your guitar simply nailed the sound. Like Eddie alluded to it reminded us of the period when BB always performed with that great horn section. Those guys nearly stole the show on occasion. Your performances on vocals, guitar and bass are really hittin' the note. Loving that guitar tone too! Great listen and look forward to more in our playlist. Kudos! J&B

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
