Really cool song!! Great vocal, great arrangement! I really like returning to the soloed guitar. I hear a little Roy Orbison on the word "blue". The one thing that hits me kind of funny is when the drums come in without a fill beforehand, and stop abruptly at time. Great work! Take care. Greg

I think Greg's on the something with the Roy Orbison - and that's always a good thing. In fact I could've just +1 on his comments and saved myself some typing....

This is great. I like it a lot Robert.

Oh and hats off for doing the 50/90 - one of these I'm going to have to try it.

Good job Robert. Plus one from me too. I will agree that "blue' may sound a bit like Roy Orbison but to me the structure of the song and lyrics have the feel of a Paul McCartney composition. Enjoyed the song.

Thanks for the feedback everyone, much appreciated! thanks Greg for pointing out about the drums, when I finally have time I will put a fill in before the drums come in; During the 50/90 not much time for alterations.

Heh. I was thinking it was a bit barren, and then the drums caught me by surprise.

Fun song, and ditto with the Roy Orbison vibe.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
