Yep, sax to the max.
it plays well over the changes and bed you created.
there was a time in the 80s when sax was everywhere in pop rock.
Well done. Hello Ray ... Thank you very much for the kind words. Glad you liked it. Wishing you the very best ... Alan

Wow - what a tune! Delightfully smooth, and the groove is phenomenal. It flows like butter and makes for a really enticing listen. The sax really pushes it along nicely, and I like how sparkly the backing instrumentation sounds. You should be proud of this one. Thanks for sharing  '' Hi Deryk ... Thank so much. Always a pleasure to hear from you and the other PG Music staff. Glad you liked it. And yes, I take a bit of pride in this. It was a very quick "throw-together". But it seems to have come out okay. Thanks for the visit. Best to you and your colleagues @ PG Music. Alan

This song exemplifies the power of Biab in the hands of a talented user.
The best compliment we can give is that it sounds like a great "gig honed" band.
An amazing use of realtracks as you selected tracks that sound so "together' both rhythmically and melodically.
Smoooth, smooth, smooth......
Best to both of you!
J&B
PS We would play to see that band.
Howdy there, Folks! Aw ... you guys are just too nice! Thank you for the kind comments and encouragement. My time to work on music (and visit here) is very limited. So, I have to make the best of the time I have. I have to take Di to the hospital for a treatment ten days each month plus all the other stuff you already know about. I'm delighted this quick effort resonated so nicely with you. That "gig honed" comment was particularly nice - much appreciated! Again, many thanks for the props! Hope both of you have a terrific week ... Alan

So easy to listen to. The harmonies really tell a story and just made me feel good about things. The sax solo was well-wrought and jazz without being overblown. All in a very sweet mix that sounded great on the phones. Much enjoyed.

The BIAB RT is superb in this song. I don't know if it was your chord sequence or arrangement, but it flowed perfectly with no apparent glitches that give away that the sax player is not playing your song directly. I played sax in from middle school through high-school, so I'm a bit partial to it. Really enjoyed this listen.

I really, really, really needed to hear a track like this tonight. I've had a crazy day and this is just balm for spiritual "wounds", so to speak. Thank you, more than you may perhaps imagine - great job ... beautiful, beautiful track.

Dear alan,
three hours? Can hardly believe it.... This is just another very fine piece of music like you've written so many others. Very nice harmonic progressions, and the sax playing is of course just awesome. Al, I know that you are so modest, but you are a heck of a song-writer !!!!
Makes me sad to read thet Di still needs to have tests, so I hope that they brought sufficient insight to help her recover as much and as soon as possible.
Very warm regards to both of you,
Stefan

Wow, this is sensational. Al, you talk as though you just threw it together, but the finished result tells stories that much more had to be involved. You conducted 'the band' with masterful skill. 10 out of 10 for this one

Just lovely Alan. That sax just flows and flows.
The arrangement and the instruments gives this a real "Late Night" feel.
