Mario, Fun lyrics, cool guitar playing. Drums are a bit hidden, but overall great overall effort. Thank you for sharing. Misha. P.S. This is not as weird as your Santa tune last year

Always good to end on a Blue note. Mario. That ensure they'll be back for more, and we will. And a nod to the rich cats. The rest of us don't often think of them this way.
Outstanding lyrics, and a fun vocal to present them. Man, I love that line: "She got the elevator and he got the shaft." Good one, Mario. I'll be back for more next year. Thanx Marty. I also will be back next year.

Hi, Mario. nbsp:nbsp:nbsp: The paper was on time
nbsp:nbsp:nbsp:But my wife was late o boyHa!  Love the guitars! I thought they were from BiaB until I checked the notes. The drum seems overprocessed and distant to my ears, but I'm no expert, Nice to hear your voice. I enjoyed the song - congratulations for getting another in under the wire!

Thanx David for this very kind review, especially that guitar comment. Yes I think I did over process the drums.

HI Mario,
I always enjoy it when you do a vocal - should do it more! Maybe just a tad more higher EQ (not much) and a bit more reverb. Guitar work sounding great! A fun lyric and a nice listern!
Happy New Year!

Man, that was full of funny lines. You definitely should write more lyrics and sing them. Nice guitar work and a great way to finish off the year, Tom

Super cool tune, Mario! +1 for more future vocals and lead guitar, both were really, REALLY fine. Agree with prior comments on vocal and drum processing tweaks. Oh, and like the splash ending, too! Just a lot of fun all the way through...

My lyrics, singing, and mixing of them are one of my weakest points so I am reluctant to showcase them. But maybe I will try harder next year. Nice blues guitar, and loved the lyrics, Mario! Thanx so much Bob.

Hey Mario...great to hear you sing and the lead ax is great! I'm not rich so I can't identify with the song but I enjoyed the song!

We can hear the smile in your vocals!
There are so many clever lines but the last really takes the cake, Mario. 😊
Not only did we enjoy your fun vocal but your guitar fits perfectly too.
You know we love your blues!

Mario, I haven't heard you sing since that math song you did a while back - and they're my favorites of yours. This is great. I had a smile on my face all the way through. Great idea and loved those lines you came up with! Great guitar work too. Man this one was fun!

Mario,
Hmmm, not sure why you feel out of your comfort zone . . . it’s a good blue tunes with a sweet solo and a compelling vocal. Really like that organ . . . or at least that what it sounds like thought I don’t see it listed. Would love to hear more of this type of stuff from you.

Brad Thanx so much Brad. Singing is out of my comfort zone as I am more of an instrumentalist guy. Also mixing a vocal is one of my weak points. However I plan on trying to sing more this year.

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."
