Well Bud is older than you so he is very POed smile

Pretty cool with Duck Dunn on bass and Jerry Garcia on guitar!

The Nasty Tweet...hahahahaha! Suffice it to say that the lyric is nailed.

You and Maha are a heckuva team with the video and audio. Outstanding.
And we always enjoy her cameos and every cool second of the vid.

Great band, cool vox, harp worked well and the old fingers were fine on the guitar.

Sometimes ya just gotta say it...and what an amazingly creative way to do it!

A ton of fun....

Hello James,

this is really a heckuva comment - thank you so much for that, I really appreciate it a lot. I'm really happy that you enjoyed the thing not only from a musical or humerous point of view, because, of course, the lyrics were the crucial point to me.

Have a nice weekend and all the best,

Stefan

PS: Looks like we're really gonna lose the UK - what a desaster... I fully agree with John Bercow, who said that the Brexit is going to the worst mistake that the UK has made since the war. It's so saddening to see how people let themselves get punked... Hard times...

Hi Misha,

we actually had hired Bill to play the sax solo, but he didn't stop eying up the crew instead of playing which we thought was - to say the least - most impropriate. Especially as the whole crew was my wife ;-)))))

Glad you had some fun watching ad listzening and thanks a lot for your positive comment.

All the best,

Stefan

Hi Hans,

since I know that we have the same opinions about the more important things I am very glad that you liked JFTR. Thank you a lot for your great and funny comment - and, yes, I took your advice and had a nice beer in the evening.

I really apreciate that you watched the vide even to the end - to be honest: Sometimes the making of the closing credits takes 10 - 15% of the whole production time. So it's nice to read that they're being perceived.

All the best,

Stefan

PS: Gisteren heb ik heel slecht neiuws van m'n cardioloog gekregen - die moet ik eerst verteren. Maar ik zal je straks wel schrijven, of misschien kan ik je ook opbellen als je dat goed vindt. Maar je mag niet over m'n uitsprak lachen - het is haast 25 jaar geleden, dat ik het laatste woord op z'n NL gepraat heb...()Maar ik zou het toch leuk vinden!) Als je het goed vind, kunt je mij je nummer mailen

Dear Jim,

thanks a lot for your kind words - I always appreciate your positive comments a lot. Let me also thank you for your comment on and subscribing to my YT channel.

Yes, I agree: The Orange amp is eye candy, and I'm going to use it in at least one more time in one of the videos I have in store.

All the best to you and your wife,

Stefan

Excellent protesting you angry old man smile You have written a long story, but full of truth like
"Instead of wisdom, moral and integrity,
the world is being ruled by sheer insanity."

and full of good advices like:
"If you think ‘My country first and screw the rest!’
Remember sunday school: The first shall be last’."

and references to Orwell etc.

I really admire all the effort you have put on all these words, music and that excellent video. Angry Finn - very nice surprise to see him on your video laugh

Hi Torrey,

thanks a lot for your very kind comment on JFTR - I always eminently appreciate your plaudits since you're such a fantastic song writer and musician.

You're the only one to mention the drum parts - took me some hours to figure out the fills the RealDrum track delivered and most of all memorize them smile. But since I do not play my drums very often (never, actually) that was a good oppurtunity to get back in that seat for a while.

Best regards,

Stefan

Band-in-a-Box 2026 Video: AI Stems & Notes - split polyphonic audio into instruments and transcribe

This video demonstrates how to use the new AI-Notes feature together with the AI-Stems splitter, allowing you to select an audio file and have it separated into individual stems while transcribing each one to its own MIDI track. AI-Notes converts polyphonic audio—either full mixes or individual instruments—into MIDI that you can view in notation or play back instantly.
