I've just spent ages trying to find some suitable Realtracks to recreate Henry Priestman's "Don't you love me no more", but without success.
I can't find anything that has the driving strumming, right drums style or syncopated instrumentals.
Can anybody help who has a good working knowledge of available styles point me in the right direction?
Here's a link to the track on YouTube:

Thanks for any help anyone can give.

I don't think Real Tracks are meant to be as exact as that. They cover a great range of styles, but are not intended to imitate particular musicians. Some of the tracks have names on them, like "Chet," but in cases like these "Chet" is the name of a style of playing.

Real Tracks are extremely useful tools for the creative musicians. Instead of trying to re-create something that has already been created, I think RealTracks are best when they are used to create something that has never been heard before.

Thanks for your pointer Flatfoot,

Yes, I've created many compositions of my own, and many new arrangements of other tracks, using BIAB, but with this one in particular, I'm trying to create a similar sound. It doesn't have to be an exact copy - and I know this wouldn't be possible with BIAB anyway - but I do want to achieve something similar to use as a backing track for my singing.

It may be that - in the limited number of real tracks and styles available - there is nothing quite like the instrumentation used in the Henry Priestman song. But surely there must be something similar? It takes a long time to learn all the designations for types of music used in the style selector, and I've already spent several hours looking for something suitable, so I was hoping someone with more familiarity might be able to assist me.

Any help welcome.

>>>...It takes a long time to learn all the designations for types of music used in the style selector...>>>

Yes it does. The naming and categorizing of styles is not very clear. I am not sure how to improve it. Music and sound are devilish difficult to label and describe.
