I used the program 7-Zip available for free here, https://www.7-zip.org/

That worked out fine!
Many Thanks.

I was a bit confused since the other zip files opened ok with standard W10 explorer but not the music files.

I was able to open all the files except music.zip.003 and music.zip.005 with 7-Zip. Failed to open 003 and 005. I have reloaded the several times. Fault "no archive file".

Does anyone know what compression software that was used to produce these archive files?

I have retested and they are fine. With 7 zip you just click on the .001 file and extract from there.

Thank you very much.

I am downloading all the files now
Seems to be progressing smoothly.

Just wondering.

Is the real book file the one originally included with biab DOS released by PG Music on 5.25 diskettes.
I remember having that way back when. Sadly I no longer have it nor a 5.25 diskette drive.

In that case it works out fine.
Music.zip.oo1 extracts fine.
(I thought I had to extract each file individually)

Many Thanks for these!

Thanks a lot Allanah for your hard work in this Christmas Goodie, having a little trouble too extracting 003 and 005, but so much in the others, so a million thanks once again.

To unzip the music files you have to click on the 001 file and the rest will unzip automatically. Don't do them individually.

Dear Allanah,

First of all, thank you for this. It is a trasure cove.

But there are Viruses inside some of the RAR files (Software packages).
Can you remove those files, so fellow members will not be infected?

Best Regards

I have only found one infected file: Applied.Acoustics.StringStudio.VSTi.DXi.RTAS.v1.10_www.softarchive.net.rar, but as a precaution I would make sure you scan them before opening which is always prudent.


My wife asked if I had seen the dog bowl. I told her I didn't even know he could.

I have put together a collection of play-along (no melodies) Christmas music in Band-in-a-Box format. Like you have done, I would like to make this available for free to anyone who wants it. These are different from what you have in your Christmas collection. What is the best way for me to distribute these songs so that people who would like them can find, download, and use them easily? Would you consider adding them to your collection?

Yes, that would be very helpful... when I scanned OO1 with Defender it identified the mentioned file... and deleated it... I'm not sure if it's safe to extract the individual files in 001 and then re-scan.

Thank you for your generosity & effort...
