Hi Greg
This is so great! Your last song has had me in stunned mode... Great back up vocals on this song.... I am still trying to figure out how you made your last song!

Alan here.
I've been absent from the site for several weeks. Di has been in and out of the hospital over the holidays and I caught the flu - still feel horrible. I also fell last week and fractured my left hand and cracked my patella. Hope to be back soon.
Anyway, thanks to all for the wonderful comments. Greg was such a pleasure to work with. You won't find a nicer person on the site ... or anywhere else. Greg's vocal and lyric are simply fabulous. I expressed to him how I wish I could sing even half that good.
Greg ... thank you so much for the collab. This was a wonderful experience and such a pleasure. You're a wonderful writer, vocalist and composer. Thanks for the experience!
Happy new year to all.
Again, thanks Greg! You're the real star of this production.
Alan Alan, you are too modest. You really create some great songs and great musical vibes. I heard your song and the road map was there! I'll post the other song one of your songs inspired in the near future. Great working with you! Take care. Greg

Greg & Alan, Really enjoyed my listens to your sweet collaboration. Perhaps the best vocal (and harmonies) I`ve heard by Greg and the production hits all the marks. I agree with ROG - this has commercial potential. Lovely song.

Floyd,
Your input and comments are always so valuable and encouraging. Delighted you liked it. As I said somewhere along the way, all I did was massage a Brent Mason RB track and throw a few chords together. Greg took it from there and now you hear what his talent produced with just a small contribution from me. Thanks again!

hello Torrey!
Thanks so much. We truly appreciate those kind words. I'm starting to feel almost human again, although my left hand hurts like heck where I fractured it. Will be over to hear and and as many of the of newer as I can real soon. Many thanks.
Alan

Stunningly pretty song with wonderful vocals - loved the harmony parts, beautiful melody and complimentary guitars. Great work all round.

I 100% agree with what has been said. The play between the Lead and backing vocals is so cool. You have NO idea how much I LOVE that type of thing. You executed that REALLY well. I don't hear many do this, so put me down for impressed. I understand you have a certain airy tonal quality to your voice, but what are you doing to get such a great sound on the backing vocals? What a treat to listen to! The guitar solo has just the right feel and strengthens at the perfect time. Well done. Any chance you can list what tracks you used? Thanks for sharing this song! Hi! Many thanks. Your comments put a smile on my face ... and I'm willing to bet the same is true for Greg. And yeah, can't be too kind about the golden voice Greg possesses. Thanks again. Alan

Super tune and such a great production. It really captures the Eagles vibe. To me, the tempo and lush arrangement makes this song a showpiece for Timothy B. Schmit to take the lead vocals on this one.
Excellent performance from both you guys. Enjoyed this a lot.
Charlie Hi Charlie, I'm almost among the living again ... flu really kicked my butt! I fully agree about the Timothy B. Schmit analogy. That soft, upper-range vocal Greg is blessed is analogous to Timothy B. Good call! Glad you liked it. Alan

Greg, I also was thinking Timothy B Schmidt. You guys surely nailed the vibe. Some excellent guitar editing on Alan's part. Sounds like it was played just for this song. Just gorgeous vocals and great harmonies on the bridge. A beautiful write and arrangement by two of my favorite musicians on the forum. Fantastic Pro sounding production. I wish you both well, Tom Hi Tom, You're one of my very favorites on the board - heck, everyone is so blessed with such wonderful talent. I'm always anxious to hear your comments. Thank you for the kindness you gave us on this one. Appreciate it so much! Greg is one of a song's best friends. Alan

"Maybe next time we’ll see what’s beyond the bend See that fork in the road before we come to the end"
Wonderful lyric and performance. And, yep, this production is stamped all over with Eagles. It seems that a lot of Eagle's softer songs were under heralded but we've always enjoyed them and this is right in the pocket.
Dittos regarding ALL of the above accolades.
Wonderful collab!
J&B Hi You Two, Yeah, not only can Greg sing with a golden voice, he writes a pretty danged good lyric, too. Thank you for the the super comments. As one of the most terrific artists on the site, along with the other terrific talent that abounds here, we appreciate your comments so much. Glad it settles nicely in your ears. Alan

Hi Greg and Alan,
Apart from being a fabulous song, this is so, SO, professional on every level.
A lovely chord progression with a perfect choice of instruments, beautifully mixed and an amazing vocal performance even by the high standard which we've come to expect from Greg.
This song has the potential to earn money!
Cheers, ROG. ROG, Such wonderful praise from such a super-talented artist! We sure do appreciate that! Greg is the selling point on this. I just threw in a little here and there and he ran with it - what a run! Thanks again. Alan

Yeah guys, I loved this too!
I agree with Floyd there is some Glenn Fry in here, I also hear the melodic vibe of some Bread in here as well.
Gorgeous all the way around and very well produced. Excellent lyrics and build.
And Mr. David, was that you on guitar? Man that was awesome!!!!
Great job you two.
Hi David, I feeling almost human again. Di got some horrible news a couple of days ago. Her best friend, Bonnie, with whom she went to school back in Tennessee and ran around with socially, called her. Her friend informed her that her (Bonnie's) daughter and granddaughter were shot and killed on Christmas Eve. They were 48 and 26 years old respectively. They were shot by a family member who was high on meth. Di is a mess. We went online to the local newspaper back in Tennessee and read the account. It was a real shock. They've been best friends since the late 1950s. Anyway, thank you for those very kind words. Coming from an artist of such talent, it means a lot. I can't begin to say enough about Greg's talent and what a pleasure he is to work with - kind of like a forum member know from North Carolina! Again, thanks so much. I'm sure Greg's as appreciative as I am. Will get get back to you on the other, non-music project, we're working on, over the weekend. Alan

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."
