Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Howdy Nigel....

I'll genuinely echo all other comments.
It's a good reflection of the genre you note in the title.

Keep up the good work....

A man from the same era as me, I love western swing, the only thing missing, was a steel guitar, of course that's my opinion!!

Hi Ronnie,

You may be right - if I ever redid this song I might add a bit of Pedal Steel and maybe some fiddles.

Best Regards
Nigel

From Bob Wills to Asleep At The Wheel we have loved WS over the years
and have posted several.

And we played our share of it with friends and in a couple of bands.

All meaning we are not new to the genre and are, dare I say, qualified smile to state "Well done!!!"

Excellent job of capturing the feel with the fine write, vocal and mix.

Ah ha!!! As Bob would say.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
