Tomorrow Something I came up with nearly 40 years ago, but didn't finish until recently. I'm relieved to finally share it. It's been two years already since I uploaded a song. I experimented with a lot of drums and percussion ideas and almost gave up, and this kit is sort of cobbled together with percussion from one RD and kick and snare stems from another. I also tried to incorporate the RT Oohs and Aahs, which was a challenge. Thanks.

I read your intro about taking 40 years to finish this. I wasn't expecting too much and then you go and totally kill it Buffet style. All I got is yeah...'you killed it!'. Super groovy island track! -Mark

Well done, Scott. You created the perfect drum track (with loops and stems), and fashioned the ooze and oz just right. Man, 40 years for this beauty. I dig the island feel and the band is so good. Excellent vocal and mix. Everything shines through with a happy and hopeful feel for tomorrow. Yeah, like Mark said, you killed it by breathing new life into this 40 year-old gem.

Something I came up with nearly 40 years ago, but didn't finish until recently. So if you can keep up this pace, you will release your next album sometime around 2486 Not my favorite genre, but I like your song, it's well written and you have a good voice

Wow, that is some history regarding your song! Well, it was worth it because this song is a good 'un. Well sung and well produced. Good work!

Yep... nice one. Has a trop feel to it.... Certainly has a JB feel to it as well.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Scott...really nice song...it sure does have a Buffet vibe...great use of the nylon stringed guitar...great solo...you nailed the percussion...your efforts were worth the wait (maybe not 40 years next time)...really enjoyed the listen!

Scott,
Forty years in the making, huh? Sounds pretty fresh to me . . . goes to show a good song withstands the test of time. Sweet vocal, nice mix. Good balance and touch on the background vocals . . . not always easy and you did it well. Good stuff!
All my best to you,
Deej

Scott,
Nice to see you back in the Showcase.
Nice one. Good vocals. Nicely mixed.
Kinda surprised that you did not use the BIAB steel drum RTs.
Don't be a stranger...

Scott,
This sounds great... Love the backstory. I guess we all have those old songs in the draw just waiting to be finished.
Nice job on this!

Thanks for the listens and the comments, the informative and the funny:)
Way back in like '85, I had a melody, a verse and a chorus, but it always seemed a bit too simple I suppose, and so I never did anything with it. I finally added another verse last spring and fired up BIAB for the first time in a long time. My wife isn't thrilled about some of the lyrics in that first verse, but in my defense, I hadn't even met her yet.
Steel drum RT's? I tried various kits and Reggae styles, but could never get the right groove. There was a Bossa Lewis RD kit that worked very well, but the swirl noise was too much and I couldn't get it out with EQ or gating. I didn't think to try RT's when looking for RD's. I'll remember that, Floyd. Thanks.
Scott

Hi Scott ...
Man, it's grreat to hear another one from you. And this resurrection went perfectly. Tottaly loved my listen. Di and I have always been very fond of tropical-based songs. And this one put a smile on both out faces.
I have a couple I wrote back in the late 70s I've thought about bringing to BIAB. They're kinda time-dated. Butg I might try to brinmg them around soon.
Nice music!

Good song Scott. Very relatable and the music really takes you away to the islands. I thought you made great use of that nylon guitar throughout and the ooh and ahhs came out nicely as well. Very easy listen.

Scott,
You've really captured that tropical vibe with this! I know that is a good feeling when you've had a tune in the back of your mind for a long time and then finally be able to bring it to life! This is a great song with a great vocal also!
Thanks, Torrey

Alan Thanks. I haven't had much success writing anything new, well, I have a couple 'new' incomplete songs, and so I'm trying to finish a few relics and make myself spend some time in the studio. Other stuff always seems to get in the way. I'm not crazy about the second verse, and the song runs a bit long, but at some point you have to move on. I'm glad to know it made you smile:) Take care. Scott

Great to see you back and listen to this fine tune (cool backstory also).
The island vibe is nailed with the arrangement and excellent selection of tracks. (all wrapped in a fine mix). The drum mashup and your acoustic sound good.
And those smooooooth vocals ice the cake.
There is a lot of feel similar to James Taylor’s Gorilla album ... a good thing.
Enjoyed it!

Thanks, Torrey Thanks so much. It's funny how some songs just pop out, others have to dragged out into the open, and still others never see the light of day. Thanks again for the listen, Torrey.

J&B Your feedback always means a lot to me. Thank you:) JT? Wild. The reference track was the Ka'au Crater Boys' "You Don't Write." We lived on Oahu for few years in the early '90's and they were popular then. Thanks again, you two. Take care. Scott

Light feel good song is an excellent fit for the dark days of autumn. Great dreamful backing track, very nice Latin rhythm and enjoyable vocals. I can fully understand why a song called Tomorrow (mañana) took 40 years to finish Janne

Dewey That's Brent Mason doing all of that great guitar work. Just the other day I commented on his Instagram telling him his RT's are fantastic and that I've used many of them. He said 'Thx!' which made my day. Thanks for the listen and the kind words. Love this island groove, very Jimmy Buffet style

Tom Gosh, Tom, what a nice thing to say. Thank you. That Brent Mason is something. If you follow his Instagram you can watch him laying down tracks. He's definitely got it. But hey, you ain't too bad yourself. Be well.

Hi Scott,
I als had a thought of making fun about the 40 years of composing. Even Leonard Cohen was closer than that. But than I noticed others already made fun, so I concentrated on the song itself. It is a very nice song that makes you long for a tropical island and a glass of rum, but I especially liked your vocals! Very cool! Are you doing more with it, or do I have to get older to hear more (sh*t!, another crappy joke I said I wouldn't make).
Seriously, like a lot what I heard. Hope to hear more from you! Hans

I targeted -14 LUFS but have since learned that's not ideal. I've noticed several folks in the forum going back to earlier productions and updating them. That's on my to do list also, but for now I'm working on finishing a few more oldies and sharing them for the first time:)

Yeah! This is great, love the groove. Also really like your vocal, great tone and feel. oohs/aahs work really well on this track, so far I haven't had much luck with the myself. So, 40 years .... hopefully we won't have to wait another 40 years for your next one Good song, enjoyed.

Yeah! This is great, love the groove. Also really like your vocal, great tone and feel. oohs/aahs work really well on this track, so far I haven't had much luck with the myself. So, 40 years .... hopefully we won't have to wait another 40 years for your next one Good song, enjoyed. Thanks:) It does take some editing/automation to get those Oohs and Aahs to sound smooth and to blend. I created at least one different BiaB Song in which I took out a number of chords which made a big difference. The generated Oohs/Aahs were more consistent with less transients. In the mix I used several fades to tame them also.

Very nice. I really enjoyed this. The band sounds great, wonderful vocals! Nice job getting the oooh's & ahhh's to work that well. I have been unable to make that happen... Yet! I agree with the James Taylor references, but also hear a good deal of Buffet in there.
Well done!
Greg

I'm glad you finished this - it's a cool little thing. RT oohs n ahhs can be challenging to mix. I find they need a lot of reverb and, occasionally, some tuning. I enjoyed the song and the chorus is really nice.

Greg Thank you for all of that, Greg! I guess we're never far from the music we grew up listening to. I'm glad you finished this - it's a cool little thing. RT oohs n ahhs can be challenging to mix. I find they need a lot of reverb and, occasionally, some tuning. I enjoyed the song and the chorus is really nice. Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the spin.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first?

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."
