This is a fun thing I have done on other forums, but never in a place that is music based like this one. I have found the answers interesting and based largely on age and geographic location.
Tomorrow is the apocalypse. Starting tomorrow you will live out your life in an underground shelter. Your only entertainment will be every album made by ONE band. Not including members who went off and did a solo project while the band was still alive, just by that one band in full. Who is your band?
When I was first asked this question many years ago, I didn't even have to think and I still don't. It would be The Beatles for me.
How about you?

Got to be the Eagles, with things that bad I would definitely need some easy listening to calm me down.

The Ventures. Over the years a large pile of records were pressed on multiple labels with the Ventures name as the artist. I use to buy their current offerings from the music store and "classic" offerings from the cut out bin found featured in many department stores back in the day.

Because I'd want a wide range of music I'd go with Yes.
Though I would have also considered Bowie and some others.
The range of stuff they did is impressive.
The creativeness and performance even more so.
I'm a musician at heart and learned so many things from listening to and studying their music, they were a big influence on me in my early years.
From 'Time and a Word' to 'Close to the Edge' to 'Owner of a Lonely Heart' .. and so many others in between.
I like the other choices mentioned previously, but I'd have to go with Yes.
Make your sound your own!
.. I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome

Def The Beatles. Plenty of variety. Excellent music.
Put another way, what band could you not accept never hearing again? Again, The Beatles!

Oooh this is a tough one for me! A couple that come to mind are Pink Floyd, King Crimson, Radiohead, and The Beatles. I name these few because of the variety in their discography. Not to mention I don't think I could get tired of albums like OK Computer, Animals, or Sgt. Peppers. Great question - I'd love to hear other's thoughts on this
Cheers,
Deryk

Definitely Chicago for me. Huge catalog and a lot of great music. Heck, I'd be happy to pare it down to a single album (albeit a double album) with Chicago II. It "makes me smile".

My initial thought was Led Zepplin....
so much really good stuff there .... from their early blues stuff to their rocking later years. And.... Kashmire..... wow.... that one song might carry you through the EOTWAWKI.
The big question in SHTF is... are you going to have the electrical power to play the music?
After all, the apocalypse is kind of an "all bets are off" situation.

If I had to live the rest of my life with the music of one band, I wouldn't just want something that I really enjoyed. I would want something I could study that would provide an endless challenge. For example, all the albums of Bill Evans (the pianist, not the sax player I know). Or Brazil's greatest living composer, Ivan Lins. You'd want something to take your mind off life in the shelter, especially when the beer ran out.

Geeze. Beer ran out for me in 1994!! What will I do in the shelter??
As long as I have Celestial Seasonings gingerbread spice tea..... Or raspberry zinger. Then I could picture myself on a boat on a river, with tangerine trees and marmalade skies....

If the beer doesn’t run out, then it really doesn’t matter much what music is playing.

The Cleveland Orchestra
I can listen to a great symphony hundreds of times and still find something new the composer put in there. The Cleveland is one of the finest orchestras in the world, they have had some fine conductors, and enough CDs and LPs to last a person a lifetime.
My second choice would be the Czech Philharmonic.

The Cleveland Orchestra
I can listen to a great symphony hundreds of times and still find something new the composer put in there. The Cleveland is one of the finest orchestras in the world, they have had some fine conductors, and enough CDs and LPs to last a person a lifetime.
And I get to LIVE here!!! Seen them dozens of times. We have an outdoor venue here called Blossom Music Center. They do a few shows there in summer. (The one for July 4th is probably already sold out.) The pavilion holds 5700, and the lawn will hold 13.500 more. One summer long ago, had to be late 70s because Lorin left in 1982, they performed my favorite piece, Mozart's Eine Kleine Nachtmusik. I had a complete score of that piece, so big it fit into a suitcase. So I went, with my blanket and suitcase. I grabbed a spot on the lawn and spread out my blanket, opened the suitcase and took out this accordion pleated looking pile of paper and got ready to follow along as they performed it. Of course people were looking at me like I was crazy. (But to be honest, they look at me like that no matter what the circumstances.) Lorin Maazel tapped is baton, and we were off. As they played, I followed along on the score, kind of keeping time with my head. There was a woman behind me and to my right watching. Eventually she moved down closer and was watching, so I started to follow along with my finger. (This score was printed out in such detail that it had 2 measures per page, 16 staves.) She sat through the entire performance. It runs what, 1 hr 15 minutes? Then they would break and come out and play shorter excerpts rather than a whole second symphony. But during that break she started asking me questions, like "You really know what all this stuff means, don't you?" And I just laughed and told her "Just follow the dots. When the dots go upward, so does the pitch." and shared with her one of the quotes attributed to Mozart. "The notes are all thee. You just have to put them in order." That woman then made the comment how she always wanted to take piano lessons, to which I replied, TRYING not to sound snarky, "And why haven't you? The only one holding you back is you." I was like 28-29 then and she was probably 43-45. Then we chatted some and she asked about me and music and I told her I played in a band and all that yada yada. She knew of the band I was in then. About 8 months later she showed up at a gig. She said that the NEXT DAY she signed up for music lessons and had been playing for however long that gap was. Sometimes people are their own obstacle. But to topic, great choice, Notes. Now I am going to have to go see them again this year. Of course Mr. Maazel is gone now, but those are really world class players no matter who is driving the bus. This year they are 100 years old and they are BUSY at least for the first half.

Eddie didn't say anything about the beer running out. Well, if you have some grain and or fruit and water and yeast and a few buckets and can make a fire..... you can make beer or distilled spirits pretty easily. It's not exactly rocket science.

The Cleveland Orchestra
<...snip...>
And I get to LIVE here!!! Seen them dozens of times.<...> Lucky you! They have a winter home in Miami and do a few concerts per year. Often I'm gigging but when I can, if it's something worth the 2.5 hour drive each way, I'm there. I've gone to Miami to hear MTT's New World Symphony, the young adults do a great job, and there are some works that I think require the energy of a youthful orchestra. https://www.nws.edu/about/michael-tilson-thomas/In Montreal I heard the McGill student orchestra do a great concert. Another young persons world class concert. Fortunately in West Palm Beach, only an hour away, many touring orchestras appear, and often on week nights or Sundays. I've heard the Czech, Moscow, USSR (back when it was USSR), Dresden, N.Y. Phil, London, St. Petersburg, Hungarian, and quite a few others. For a few years we had a Florida Philharmonic, but a musician's strike coupled with low ticket sales sadly ended that. They were quite good. We have a Space Coast symphony that is close, they are decent, but not of the caliber of the majors. In defense, they have an extremely heavy concert schedule and they play serious symphony concerts but also do pops and 'gimmicky' concerts to attract an audience that won't go to hear a symphony. I've also seen orchestras in their home concert halls in Prague, Budapest, London, and a few other 'foreign' countries. While classical may be one of my loves, it isn't my only. I've seen Zeppelin, Moody Blues, Gino Vannelli, Pink Floyd and was lucky enough to be the opening act "back in the day" for the Four Seasons, Association, and quite a few more including some of the Motown acts. I've paid to see Stan Getz, Mark Murphy and a bunch of jazz cats too. But for something to listen to that won't get 'worn out' or overplayed if heard thousands of times, I'll take a nice, complex symphony from the Romantic era (Eroica and on) to the contemporary. Especially the dark, brooding pieces by the Eastern Europeans and Russians. Notes

The Beatles. For my generation, they were the watershed, and for me, a huge inspiration. No beer, huh? After I tend to the generator (so’s I can listen to the music), I’ll be out back working on the still (so’s I can keep me AND the generator going). One must think of these things!  R.

If I am stuck somewhere I would want soulful upbeat music. So, Hendrix, Led Zeppelin and Stevie Rae Vaughn. The game is ONE. Which one?
I am using the new 1040XTRAEZ form this year. It has just 2 lines.
1. How much did you make in 2023?
2. Send it to us.

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."
