Hi Bob,

Yeah, I gotta go along with those who said Lou Reed.

This is a style which you do SO well.

A super soundscape which conjures up pictures as moves along.

Loved the whole thing.

Rarely is a production posted for which a certain over used word is perfect.

COOL!

It's one thing to write such vivid imagery - and yet another to provide the perfect performance for it - and yet another to wrap it in a very supportive production. You did it all.

Welcome back and we hope to hear more this year!

We'll say it again....cool!

Always enjoy hearing your posts. Great write and arrangement. I really enjoyed going back to '65 to get this glimpse of Mercer Street. Enjoyed my listen.

Nice work on this one - I’m getting almost a Talking Heads vibe with the vocal style on this one. Despite the talking sort of singing style, this is incredibly catchy! The arrangement is great, and the lyricism really paints a vivid picture.


Great job, and thanks so much for sharing smile


Cheers,
Deryk

Bob,
I`m late to welcome you back here- been wondering where your muse would take us next!
I love the way you write your signature over this kind of cultural/musical history - authentic and very enjoyable.

This song really have me a lot to think about. I always read the lyrics first and love to play the song afterwards, and it's always really neat to see how just reading the lyrics alone versus hearing them as originally intended through the song compares. I think you did a really great job on this song, and I am excited for the next one.


Cheers,
Ember

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.

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."
