This song epitimises the talent on this PGM forum and long may it continue.

Thank you Tom. It was fun and I quickly found that it was very "singable." My word that Bud kids me about!

Peter, Leon, Janice and Bud,

What I'm hearing through my headphones right now is another shining example of an outstanding forum collaboration.

Peter, your guitar work is excellent.... skillful, considered and a perfect fit.

Leon, the lyric rewrite was definitely worth the effort. I don't think I've ever heard the 'amuse me/enthuse me' rhyme anywhere before.

Janice, you OWN this style of music! Your singing carries us listeners along on the vocal equivalent of a magic carpet ride. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to you.

In a nutshell, this is very, very good music.

All the best to you all,
Noel

There is really wonderful y'all.

The instrumentation--live and RTs--is perfect. Really crisp guitar playing, Peter, that sits perfectly in the mix and sounds completely pro.

I really like the rich, professional studio quality sound of this, right down to the mastering.

Of course, excellent vocals by Janice as always--and great vocal recording work Bud.

Great job everyone.

A great song from front to back - thanks so much for sharing smile

Excellent choice of instruments for this song. The acoustic guitar is full and sweet. and I appreciate the restraint you employ on the slide solo with that touch of flare in the the last measure or two.

Janice, I think I'm starting to hear a flair of ragtime in your blues (lol). Maybe it is harkened by the piano in this song, but it is part of what gives you a unique signature.

Well done everyone!

That girl can sing anything, it seems. And gets better with every single recording (How can that be????)

A terrific listen.

Yep - what Floyd said. This is a real sweet collab. That great lyric, super backing tracks, Janice's incomparable voice and Bud's expertise "twisting the knobs" is a recipe for some really terrific listening. Kudos to all concerned!

The Magic Touch


Honey I know I think too much
I’m aware of that
It’s true I get emotional
My moods can fade to black
But whenever I lay eyes on you
I just have to smile
You make me think that life is good
And living it worthwhile

You amuse me
You enthuse me
With a feeling that my life
May be worth living after all


I knew when I laid eyes on you
You were the real McCoy
I hope you can believe me
When I say that you’re my joy
Cause honey I wouldn’t lie to you
At least ways not too much
You’re the reason I’m going on
You’ve got that magic touch

You amuse me
You enthuse me
With a feeling that my life
May be worth living after all


Honey I know you like to think
You’re a man of gravitas
And shows of strong emotion
You regard as hazardous
But whenever I lay eyes on you
I just have to smile
You make me think that life is good
And living it worthwhile

You amuse me
You enthuse me
With a feeling that my life
May be worth living after all

Peter, your guitar playing sounds like RT's!
Well, that must be a compliment, don't you think laugh
And no one can sing a song like this like Janice!

Thanks for that happy you noticed the acoustic - harder to do than the slide.
Janice sounds great, I'm sure she will appreciate your comments.

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."
