HOPE BEYOND THE GRAVE UPDATE....As of today 3/19/24 I have uploaded my final mix for this one (same link) With Easter Sunday (I always call it resurrection Sunday) fast approaching, I decided to give this song that was inspired by the resurrection story another go. I posted a version of this several years ago. To be honest that first offering wasn't very well done! I've been meaning to re-do this for quite a while and hopefully I've done a better job this time. A big thanks to Marty Straub for allowing me to use one of his pics for the SC pic (Marty you are awesome) Thanks to you all for giving it another listen!

Hi Torrey,
Thanks for the front-row seat!
Nice!!! I particularly like the lead-up to the choruses - really cool! I also like the up-front drum placement, as they tend to lead the way.
Great guitar work! But that's no surprise. Your vocal-only bridge is perfect. The arrangement and mix are top shelf. I love the ending. I enjoy when a song ending doesn't necessarily resolve to the tonic.
The one little thing that caught my ear was I think the vocal could use a touch more high end - not much, but a little.
Great song - great recording! Great message.
Take care,
Alan

Torrey...brother you are amazing!...what a great Resurrection Day song and message! musically I don't know which is better your vocal (and incredible harmonies) or the killer track you created or the wow-zer (my term) solo you played...I've said this before but you have a sound and style that is so identifiable...your vocals are you and you alone...you don't sound like anyone else and no one sounds like you...I love all your songs and productions but this message is special...Dan

Hi Torrey,
I remember this song very well!
It was the first song I heard from you (I think) and I know I was impressed by the melody, the chorus and your vocals!
That is not changed with this version. It's just a wonderful song.
I can't recall if this song is recorded, or mixed better than the previous one. It sounds very smooth and catchy, but so did the original too!
Hans

Torrey, I love the subject matter and the way you presented it lyrically and melodically within the upbeat melody. Great lift in the chorus!

Hi, Torrey. You should see the smile on my face, and words would be unnecessary. Your vocals are as good as ever. I love the composition and the arrangement. Great song idea, too. Love that guitar. Very much enjoyed. And the smile is still there. Thanks.

Hi, Torrey. Well, I guess the one advantage of being late is I get to hear the latest and greatest mix.  Vocals sound great, as do the harmonies. Nice uplifting song - an excellent Easter Resurrection Sunday song!

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."
