Lawrence,
Yikes! Holy Cow! This is a tremendous piece of work!!! I love everything you do, but this is my absolute favorite. The groove, lyric, vocal and mix are just perfect.
Completely outstanding...

Thank you very much Bob. I took an idea that you have used with hip hop beats. I thought that was very creative of you.
I'm so glad you liked it!

Lawrence, Always a pleasure listening to you. I love the lyrics and of course the vocals. This is a strong write with a lot of imagery. An impressive remake. Nicely done. Tom

I love the menacing mood of this Lawrence. I always think tremolo guitar can make a track sound really cool; puts me in mind of that Robert Plant + Alkison Krauss album 'Raising Sand'. Nicely sung too.

Exactly what I had in mind! This is a great tune, Lawrence. Really compelling write, and the chorus helps keep the song from being too forebodindg. Awesome job, and very well sung!

Hi Lawrence.
Hey, that song really moves along - I'm surprised you didn't call it "Walking Through A Gruve-yard".
Kind of spooky, but at the same time infectious - once it gets under your skin you have to play it again and again...
Loved the vocal.
Excellent.
ROG.

Hi Lawrence.
Like the controlled chaos that builds with the song,
the guitars, and particularly the organ.
And of course I love graveyard songs. Mean stuff. Cheers.

Very good work Lawrence!
This is slightly different from your other songs but it sure has a punch to it.
Very good mixing quality also!

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."
