Hi Bob and Josie, I've just had a listen to some of the tracks! Wow! These songs have leaped over the high jump since I last heard them on this forum. I can't believe how good they sound. They're a real credit to you both. Good luck with the sales  Best wishes, Noel

Great work! The songs are sounding better than ever in the album format. It was nice as I was listening, they were sounding like hits to me.
Have Fun!

Josie, Bob - congratulations. Great to see such an undertaking come to fruition. It was certainly great listening to it evolve here on the Forum.  As a former PR/Promotion person old school, I'd like to know how you get the word out with today's social network. I'm also curious if you and Josie did any extra mastering beyond your own production work? Much success to you. Cheers - Ian

Josie & Bob,
Congratulations on this fine effort! I have really enjoyed following the progress of this project on this forum. I just ordered my copy and it is downloading as I type this. I gave a quick listen to all the previews, and they sound very impressive (as expected).
For those of you on the Forum who may not know Josie and Bob, you simply must get this album. They are true craftsmen in this art of songwriting. And this project is just another testimonial to what we can do with the great tools we have with Band In A Box!
Again, congratulations, and I am looking forward to many enjoyable hours of listening to this!
Steve

Ian, Thanks for your kind words. We actually had the album mastered by Sage Audio in Nashville. It made the overall sound and levels consistent and brought the audio up to red book standard. In terms of marketing, we are mainly using my website and will be submitting to some online radio stations. Thanks again - we really appreciate hearing from you. Bob
