Check out this video I came across on YouTube - Band-in-a-Box backing up a Weissenborn Guitar!


Browsing through YouTube with the simple search criteria of "Band-in-a-Box" always results in some great video finds!

I've always loved this song... enjoy!

Callie,
Yes, this is nice... the Weissenborn is at the top of my RealTracks wish list!

That was in the film la Bamba a film about Ritchie Valens

Born Ricardo Esteban Valenzuela Reyes.

I still to this day think, that film is one of the best ever done about a

true star.

I'm looking to create a backing track for "Sleepwalk". Does anybody know what Real Style was used for this backing track ...or any suggestions on how to create a similar sound (i.e with a guitar hitting all downstroke notes)?

Such wonderful memories Callie. Thanks for the trip back in time.

I played in a trio with a PSG player who aced "Sleep Walk" which remains among my favourites. Gosh, that was back in the 50s!

The Band-in-a-Box Songpicker suggests ZZPBAL12.STY (that's an all midi 4/4 style) at 80 BPM in the key of C.

BIAB also suggested _PNOC128.STY as a RealTrack alternative to the aforementioned MIDI style.

I generally channel the Danny Gatton version of this song when I play
Its a little less 12/8 and a little more swing.

here's my setting

Hoping the file attached properly
