Dave,

Than ks! I appreciate it. Glad you enjoyed it.I tried to add a little more percussion but it seemed to clutter rather than add fill - so I left it as is. Glad it works for you.

Very nice, Alan. Really enjoyed it. A good grouping of instruments, well mixed. (another one that sounded like it would be good for a lyric...).

Super.

Thanks a bunch, Floyd. With all that's going in in my life right now, lyric writing has been on the back burner. But, will get to it as soon as I can. Glad you liked it!

Alan

Edited To Say: In a couple of days, will be posting a new one with vocal and lyric. I guess it would be kinda hard to do a vocal without a lyric - Duh! As I turn the pages on the calender, my brain farts come more often. laugh

Really well done smile The groove is infectious, and the guitar work here is superb. I'm getting a late 70's/early 80's kind of vibe with this one. The only thing it's missing is a soulful singer over top of it.

Nice work, and thanks for sharing!


Cheers,

Thanks Deryk! Glad you like it. I wrote it such that I can make room for a vocal later. The submission opportunity I wrote it for wanted an instrumental. Thanks for the nice words!

Hello, Alan

The sound is great!
Yes, this is definitely a Latin influenced Jazz number featuring electric guitar on lead.
I agree with David (dcuny).
Using BiaB horns is tricky, because they basically run the same riff. I thought you did an excellent job not overusing them, and making them very effective when they did play.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Alan,

This is VERY tastefully assembled. Latin meets jazz meets rock. Music and title are perfect fits! I don't know what it was tha caused it but 'The Avengers' from the 1960s with John Steed and Emma Peel came to mind. You've arranged this with all your usual professionalism. I found myself thinking, "Alan really knows what he's doing. I would loved to have heard his bands live."

May good things come your and Di's way!
Noel

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."
