Champagne & Roses Here is a song Leon & I wrote written probably about 40 years ago. The original was a guitar and vocal on an old 4 track - lost in the dustbin of time. Updated and sung by Janice, with a rockabilly piano based backing. Janice - Vocal Leon - Lyrics Bud - recording Janice & mix advice I played the guitar (and did a little midi programming on the bass fills etc). The Band: RealTracks in style: 2426:Bass, Acoustic, RockabillySlowSwing Sw 085 RealTracks in style: 2428:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm RockabillySlowSwingKevin Sw 085 RealTracks in style: 2427:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm RockabillySlowSwingBrent Sw 085 RealDrums [in Song:RockabillySlowSwing^06-a: Sticks, Hat, b: Sticks, Champagne & Roses Sometimes at the closing of the day When evening starts to exercise her sway Sky above the city turning midnight blue My thoughts turn once again to you And to incense and candle light, champagne and roses These are the kinds of thing my mind discloses Incense and candle light, champagne and roses And the times I used to share those things with you I see a couple walking hand in hand Sometimes it’s as much as I can stand I feel like I will always be alone and blue I remember when I used to walk with you (Thinking about) incense and candle light, champagne and roses These are the kinds of thing my mind discloses Incense and candle light, champagne and roses And the times I used to share those things with you

No cobwebs on this Peter certainly passed the test of time. Can't go too far wrong with Janice on vocals. Great tune guys. Rob4580

That's a really solid song. The simple arrangement is perfect as is Janice's vocal. Great guitar...made me want to hear the bpm upped though as it suggests a really swing RockaBilly thing. I listened carefully for the midi bass fills and they are a little different tonally but only if I listen closely AND I'm probably imagining it.

Hi folks,
that's the first song I've listened to on this forum for many weeks. And it immediately showed me how much I was missing.
Very, very nice - and it sems that it's custom-made for Janice (whom I adore anyway) - sung absolutely gorgeously.. A fine rockbilly song, well-arranged.
Lved the ending a lot - was it a 'bult-in' BIAB ending (which I think are really great sometimes) or your own idea? Sound is very fine, too.
Really well-done, take care, everybody,
Stefan

Top notch. The sort of easy-on-the-ear song you'd expect to hear on the radio or a juke-box. Well done.
My music may not set the world on fire but if it causes a glow in just one person's heart, it has all been worthwhile

WOW!! I knew I'd like it when I saw Janice was singing. Man, what an outstanding backing track. You guys rock!! Great song. I'd like to hear the original but understand it's sitting in the dustpan of time where I have a whole section of stuff stored. That's a good write, guys, and a brilliant idea inviting Janice & Bud.

Peter & Leon (& Janice)...
A really nice write. Simple, but not mundane. Nice bricks and mortar.
A gorgeous vocal (duh).
An excellent arrangement/production. The MIX is outstanding. Every instrument (and vocal) is sharp/clear/in-its-own-space and then beautifully blended - outstanding!!! What a Great Mix should sound like.
A terrific listen.

Hi Guys,
This is a good song with a catchy beat.
All mixed, played and sung well.
Peter - I know you like your guitar back in the mix but it is very tasty and I would love to hear it more upfront.
Well done.
Best Regards Nigel

Hi Peter! Golly! Yeah, I said golly! It totally fits this time period tune. Could have jumped right off the my ole black and white 13 inch television watching Hee-Haw! Peter, your guitar playing has always left me wishing I could play like you! And Janice, CHILD if you were back in the days of Patsy Cline, she would have had some STIFF competition! Gotta love throwback tunes like this. They required skill and care, including the writing, Leon!

I know that when I see Peter, Janice, and Bud in one song I know that I'm in for some ear candy.
Everything has already been said so all I can say is I loved it.

"lost in the dustbin of time", sounds like a song waiting to be written!
Love the rockabilly vibe happening on the guitar parts, Peter, great sound.
Good write, Leon! Cool that you guys have known each other for so long and are still making music together.
And of course Janice always sounds fabulous!
Excellent song you three, enjoyed.

I got a rockabilly vibe. I think it was the tone on Peters guitar. Very cool playing. Perfect backtrack for Janice's perfect vocal. Nice change up. So glad you blew off the dust on this song. Well done.

Classic country. As expected, Janice sounds like she's in her element, and the mix is clear and balanced.
Nice guitar work as well. Everything just works.

Really well-done, take care, everybody,
Stefan Thank you Stefan. I so value your support and friendship! Best to you both, J&B

Nicely romantic and nostalgic story in a timeless arrangement. The mix is perfectly modern without being cliched. Great playing and singing, guaranteed high quality collaboration.

I read the lyrics before listening. Very good. They can stand on their own w/o the music. Tune is good too. Is that Jerry Lee on the piano? Janice gives this song the treatment. Peter, the guitar bit blend in organically with the style/RTs. Man, that solo is good!

Nice sounding oldie , back to basics where a think we should go now and again !, Janice the vocals are as always spot on, but the bar set too easy for you .
Your vocal range(key set in the song ) in these collaborations you do , they seem too low for you in my listen !.
The track sound ,based on another person produced it ?.
I felt like again ,a lot of your collaborations that you hang back to fit the track in your vocals like a hang ?.
Don't know if you will agree with that or not, but me !!, i would rather hear more from your own camp !!.
You made it sound what it is by being the singer and doing the best to get it to shine.
Loved the vocals and the walking Bass !.
Thanks

"lost in the dustbin of time", sounds like a song waiting to be written!
Love the rockabilly vibe happening on the guitar parts, Peter, great sound.
Good write, Leon! Cool that you guys have known each other for so long and are still making music together.
And of course Janice always sounds fabulous!
Excellent song you three, enjoyed. Thanks Dave - we've known each other since we were 5 years old. Peter

Peter & Janice,
I'm in a good mood for the old 4-beat sound. Janice's vocal is very sweet. Your guitar work is outstanding as always. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

I got a rockabilly vibe. I think it was the tone on Peters guitar. Very cool playing. Perfect backtrack for Janice's perfect vocal. Nice change up. So glad you blew off the dust on this song. Well done. Thanks Scott Peter

Classic country. As expected, Janice sounds like she's in her element, and the mix is clear and balanced.
Nice guitar work as well. Everything just works. Appreciate the review David. Peter

Nicely romantic and nostalgic story in a timeless arrangement. The mix is perfectly modern without being cliched. Great playing and singing, guaranteed high quality collaboration.

Peter (and Janice),
Nice country blues tune . . . slick vocal as always—the mix allows it shine. Love the title/hook—really sets the mood. Great write. Excellent collab! Congrats to you all!
My very best to you,
Deej Appreciate the review Deej. Peter So much talent on one track! I played this kind of music back in the 60s and 70s. But we didn't sound anywhere near this good! Totally loved it! best to all of you ...

Shigeki Adachi Thanks Shigeki Peter I read the lyrics before listening. Very good. They can stand on their own w/o the music. Tune is good too. Is that Jerry Lee on the piano? Janice gives this song the treatment. Peter, the guitar bit blend in organically with the style/RTs. Man, that solo is good! Appreciate the comments Scott Peter Peter, Janice, Leon & Bud,
I could listen to a whole album of this… So good!
Janice and the whole team shines. This is a special one.
Thoroughly enjoyed!
Bob Thanks Bob Peter

Bob Thank you Bob! I was very excited to join in with Peter and Leon on this. Janice I read the lyrics before listening. Very good. They can stand on their own w/o the music. Tune is good too. Is that Jerry Lee on the piano? Janice gives this song the treatment. Peter, the guitar bit blend in organically with the style/RTs. Man, that solo is good! Thanks! It was a pleasure having Jerry drop by the studio. Janice Nice sounding oldie , back to basics where a think we should go now and again !, Janice the vocals are as always spot on, but the bar set too easy for you .

Thanks Thanks! You can blame me for the key it’s chosen by me on all our J&B productions and collabs. I sang up in a very high range during our many bluegrass years but Bud has convinced me I’m a natural contralto. Glad you liked it! Janice Peter & Janice,
I'm in a good mood for the old 4-beat sound. Janice's vocal is very sweet. Your guitar work is outstanding as always. Enjoyed my listen a lot.

J,B,P&L, this one has that great old time swing feel. Great vocal per usual! The piano is the perfect compliment and although not mentioned in the notes, it sounds like some C6 lap steel in there. Reminds of Junior Brown type fills. Leon’s lyrics prove he knew what he was doing even back then. Topped off with a fine mix, it all adds up to a wonderful listen, Tom

No lap steel - I set up a harmony pedal on the helix to try and emulate something like a B-Bender. Peter

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."
