Thanks! It's great to have a "pure" example of BiaB to point people to. And thanks for the subtle hint about critiques! Otherwise, I'd be tempted to say something about the Mmmrrrhhhffflllghh...

Bob, First, I found this very entertaining... and there must be a dozen verses you left out.  Second, you have to send a finished copy to Dr. Phil... how could he not love it! Probably loves country music anyway.  Third, nice job of showcasing the use of RD's & RT's using BIAB. I love this software!  Fourth, I just wanna bring up a few issues I have with the lyric's, song arrangement, oh yea and the mixing, and probably the mastering too... after you get that done of course.... Fifth, there's that cool tone on the ride cymbal again!  Take Care, Greg PS It was snowing big snowflakes this morning on this side of the mountains, and yet my willow trees still have 90% of their leaves!

Thanks everyone. I've had the idea for this song for a long time and finally got serious about making it work. Yesterday I hooked up with Texas fiddle legend, Dale Morris, formerly with Bill Monroe and he's agreed to add fiddles to some of our songs. I'm psyched. He's an incredible player. This whole digital music thing has made it easier than ever to create some great music even if the players are half a world away. Boy, we're having some fun now.
Bob

This is working for me now Great vocal, lyrics and mix.
The bumper sticker said "I'm a veterinarian, therefore I can drive like an animal".
Suddenly I realized how many proctologists are on the road.
