Your voice is different (of course), but in terms of arrangement and great storytelling, your song reminds me a bit of Mark Knopfler's solo work.
Really well done!

Thanks WaoBand.
If you poke around in BIAB long enough you can usually find something that blends.

Man, I love the way you write 'em and play 'em, Vic. Such a well-told story and a well-sung song. I'm all for long solos (partially cuz I ain't a good singer), and this one is perfect for your song. The solo is a nice way of tell parts of the story wiht music, and the feel is perfect. Four sixes beats Aces and Eights.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Hi Torrey.
To my ears it sounds about there but my voice may not come through earbuds.
I will have to revisit to see what I can do.
Thanks for listening.

Hi, Vic.

What do I think?

Excellent chorus. Great write. Perfect arrangement. Vocal works even though your voice is soft.

That's what I think. smile

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Thanks for your support, Marty. Coincidentally, you may or may not be aware but “Aces & Eights” was another story song of mine from a few years back.
Thanks again.

Inviting intro and then the nicely rolling rhythm starts, I enjoyed those guitars. A story about not so nice guy, interesting approach, kind of old way storytelling that works especially well with your dark voice.

You’ve got us wanting to watch an old western movie now, Vic. 😊

The band suits the lyric well and the solo was definitely not too long.

Your vocals told the story very well.

Well done,

J&B

Hi Janne.
I’m glad you liked that rolling rhythm start. Sometimes you get a happy accident with BIAB. This was one I grabbed before it disappeared.

Thank you,

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.

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.
