Very nice Southern Gospel feel. The vibe starts with the first note of the piano. Loved it.

Cool stuff.... here in the south we have a bunch of southern gospel groups. They are quite popular in the older baptist churches. This nails that genre fairly well.

There was a time in my writing when I wrote quite a few songs in this style. Perhaps, and just for grins, I should rework those tunes now that I have BB

Love this, George. Great title and your vocal is really wonderful. Got some early Johnny Cash vibes from this, which is a very good thing in my books!

Good Afternoon
Thanks for listening and commenting. I've had the "hook" for Heaven South rolling around in my head for a long time. I got the idea when I heard the late, great Nashville song writer Harley Allen use that term during some banter on stage. I guess we always keep our ears open for a "hook". This was a fun song to write and record.

Hello Joanne
I really appreciate your comments and that you took time to listen to Heaven South. I've been feeling a need to write something with a gospel flare for a long time. I've had that "Heaven South" hook rolling around in my head for a long time and decided it was time to use it.
Thanks Again,
George

Good Afternoon. Thanks for listening and commenting. Glad you heard a thread of Johnny Cash in Heaven South. He was on my mind when I did the vocal.
I continue to be amazed at what Band In A Box allows me to do. Most satisfying.
Be In Touch,
George

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."
