Hi All, Here's something I wrote a few years ago, but never properly recorded. Something about an old cowboy, lost love, the outskirts of San Antonio and a California dream... San AntonioIn my mind today I saw you Running wild through the summer In the heat of the day I can feel California Ready to mourn ya Headed where the dust winds blow San Antonio San Antonio In our days and nights together Living hard through the winter In the cold of the night I left for California Ready to mourn ya Shiver when the desert turns cold San Antonio San Antonio In my old blue jeans and leather Driving fast through the seasons In the mist of the morning I was in California Ready to mourn ya Wishing on the day growing old San Antonio San Antonio BIAB Tracks: 366: Bass, Electric, Country Ev 065 362: Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming Ev 085 362: Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking Ev 085 2446: Guitar, Baritone Electric, Background Ev 065 RealDrums: NashvilleEven16 Sidestick HiHat Thanks for listening!

Classic Bob Dean. What more need be said?
A good write.
Good vocal (a signature sound).
And what is becoming "The Robert Dean Band" signature sound.
Steady as a rock. Quality.
Excellent.

There was definitely a sense of good memories and longing in the lyrics that was quite clear to me, and I think that you did an excellent job with portraying that particular set of emotions. Well done! Thanks for sharing.
Cheers,
Ember

Hi Bob,
This is a nice, emotional song, you made. And a very consistent 'Dean's Sound'. I read Floyd said something of this kind too!
The bariton guitar works very well in this song. Especially in combination with your emotional, somewhat thin voice. I like that.
It's a pity it was lying on that shelf for so long. You have more on that shelf? Let us hear them.
Have a nice day,
Hans

The tremolo baritone was slightly muddy for the 1st notes of the intro but that settled quickly.
Fabulous band sound & mix.
Cool.
Cheers

Oh, yeah, that baritone sets the table so well. Excellent lyrics and vocal, as always, Bob. I keep thinking your singing SAD Antonio.

Hi rsdean,
Pleasant atmosphere created by the mix and your voice. There is emotion and the instrumentalization make it a good composition.

Knew when I so the song title it was going to be one of your classic tune. Awesome tune. Loved the tremolo guitar intro. Super vocal and lyric as always. Well done.

Ah yes...the baritone guitar featured band returns to the stage.
Signature sounds are cool indeed but you always add something special to each one.
Your imagery and vocal present like a film...so easy to see it all.
Excellent!

Guitar intro was a little bit too much for me, after that, classic sound by you all the way. I'm a big lyrics fan, probably why I like your stuff so much. Great job again.

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."
