Excellent job Charlie !
Great atmosphere !
Angelo
Thanks for listening Angelo. Nice work on that Charlie. I love the laid back feel to it. Good stuff. Southern Pacific was one of those bands that had a string of hits and then disappeared. They we quite good. Composed of members of the Doobie Brothers. Creedence Clearwater Revival, Pablo Cruise, and Crystal Gayle's back up band.... they had a cool, hip, grooving, country sound that when you listen you can certainly hear the influence of those old bands peeking through. Browsing through some of their videos, I came on this one where the singer sounds like our very own Floyd.... see if you agree: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KTDNXXL0sgI agree Herb, the singer does have a Floyd Jane sound about him. It is Tim Goodman, an original SPB founding member. He left the band in 1986 after the album this cut was on was released. Good find on YouTube. I'm glad you enjoyed my song that's based on the chord progression of an SPB tune. Charlie, that is a showcase for both you and RT's. It works remarkably well. I've attempted a few RT instrumentals with limited successs. I think your chord structure really facilitates the melodic feel of the piece.
We both much enjoyed this over the morning cup of joe.
Excellent!
J&B Thanks for commenting Janice and Bud. In this case, using a professionally constructed chord chart played from RealTracks played by professional musicians in a professional studio did work remarkably well. One thing I found interesting in the melody is I can hear melodic lines that match the Eagles song, I can't tell you why and at the 3:02 mark, the acoustic guitar nearly plays the melody line exactly for the melody of Help Wanted, the tune the chord progression came from. That tells me it is useful to spend time in the Stylepicker auditioning and it's likely a very usable style can be found that will closely match a commercial song I'm trying to cover. Thanks for listening. BIAB is a wonderful product provided by such a wonderful company as PGMusic. Charlie

This project really developed without any thought I would post it. I had a specific chord pattern and was trying different styles and exporting certain instruments as performance track and was not keeping any type of record. I can't help with identifying that particular instrument. The final sounding track came out sounding better than what I thought would occur by mixing performance tracks from such diverse styles like the ones I auditioned. Wow Charlie. You really have created something very special here.

Hi Trevor. I could not agree more. This really turned out better than I imagined. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Charlie

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."
