Rock Steady
© 2017 Kenny Leverett

Smooth as silk
I’m about to lose my grip
Turns me on
Till I just wanna hold you baby
All night long

Things you’ve said
It all goes right to my head
When you make that sound
Well I’m about to come unwound

Right now, I’m ready
I’ve been ready since the day I was born
Bring it on and rock steady
Rock me steady baby
All night long
Rock steady

I just love to hear you talk
With the mids wide open
You can walk that walk
I just love to hear you sing
With the humbucker working’
Gonna make it scream

Right now, I’m ready
I’ve been ready since the day I was born
Bring it on and rock steady
Rock me steady baby
All night long
Rock steady

Good driving rock beat throughout. A rock steady feel, for sure.

Strong rock sound - with a nice driving beat. Especially like the chorus.

Kenny,

This is very cool - love the late 60s / early 70s feel. Great vocal and mix - love the guitar solo.

Excellent!

Nice Rocker. Really good mix on this one. I couldn't talk for a week if I tried to do vocals like you do. It would be cool and almost a supernatural experience to hear such a hard voice over a stadium PA.

Enjoyed my listen.

Charlie

Rock Steady indeed! Very cool vocal as usual. Nice, tasteful guitar solo, was you using the strat with the humbuckers?

Kenny, Nice bluesy delivery of the vocal and the doubling sounds great. Nice and tasty guitar work. Great chorus and the production and mix are well done. Good one. Rock Steady! Tom

Love the feel of this, Kenny. The vocal and guitar solos add to the cool, languid mood!

Hello, Kenny

A nice late 60's Rock.
Rock Steady indeed!
Your guitar solo is very tasteful.
And your shout reminds me of John Lennon a little bit.
Love the Piano 2157 Vintage.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Shigeki Adachi

"I just love to hear you talk

That's just too cool!

As floyd said "Grit to the max!"

We couldn't imagine a better vocal track for this...perfect for the vibe!

Reminds me of reading where Johnny Winter said when he was young he practiced singing into the pillow at night...I suppose to appease his mother smile

As always all is top notch with the production including the pickin' but the vocal...yeah man, the vocal!

Good job Kenny! I tend to agree with Shigeki about Lennon on this one. It kind of has a Lennon type feel to the vocal phrasing. Thanks, Torrey.

Thank you Charlie
appreciate your kind words, I can't seem to sing any different from this these days
unless i really sing softly, and that's only for ballads
I just try to belt it out from the heart, keep between the ditches
and hopefully stay on pitch enough.

Dave, thanks

I kinda wish I had that guitar, just found the pic that showed a humbucker
or what appears to be. I used to play on one that had a bucker in the back
and regular strat pickups in front of it. I recorded with a strat copy
something Eddie V had a hand in designing, very nice neck on it.
Appreciate your kind words

Hey, Rock on Kenny!

Started listening on the 'phones, but just had to play that loud on the the big monitors.

A classic piece of rock with a solo that could make your ears bleed.

How DO you get that vocal sound? Awesome!

Loved the whole thing.

ROG.

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.

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."
