Alan...I really enjoyed this...so great to hear lyrics (especially well written ones) with one of your compositions...love the Basa nova feel to this number...you're right the piano is excellently done...really good vocal work...I think adding a BiaB instrument(s) along with an existing track helps show and advertise the coolness of BiaB and should be part of the forum's value and appeal...old songs are not old to those of us who have never heard them...great work!...Dan Good Early Morning, Dan (it's 4:20am here in Northern Alabama) ... Your comments are always so kind to my music. I appreciate that very much - puts a smile on an old guy's face! As I mentioned to Greg, it is a bit of an unusual arrangement for a Blues number. But, that's what the muse brought with her when she dropped in. I try not to argue too much with my muse - I like her in a good mood! And thanks for your input on the older songs. Wishing you and yours everything good. Alan

A good write, Alan. That piano is the perfect addition. Pleasing mix and vocals. Love the lyrics. My favorite: A tangled web of heartache, a case of full-time blues No color in my rainbows, just the darkest hues
Well done, Alan. Fun listen --makes me wanna play along.

A minor key song I like it a lot. And I mean: a LOT. Dark and brooding.

Well done, Alan. Fun listen --makes me wanna play along. Hey Marty ... Thanks for your time to listen and the very nice comments. And yeah, when I auditioned that piano track, I didn't need to look anymore. It was a perfect fit for the sound I wanted. I'm not sure what genre to call it - maybe Minor Blues With Pop-Rumba Feel? Hey, if there isn't as good descriptive available, invent one! Again, many thanks! Alan

Alan, I am glad that you brought this one out of mothballs! This sounds great. Super groove with a very strong vocal. Great mix, especially considering the era it was recorded.
My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not.

Just a question: If I simply added an RT or Drum Track from BIAB to those songs, would that be considered "gaming" the forum? If so, I'll discard that idea. Well, there's the "letter" of the law, and the "spirit" of the law. Obviously, this forum is for BiaB users (thus the title). The rules don't require BiaB be used, since they say: If Band-in-a-Box or RealBand have been used... Given that you use and frequently post songs created with BiaB, I don't think it's a great breech of conduct to occasionally post a song you created without BiaB. (I've done so myself on occasion). That's my opinion, for what it's worth. As for the song - nice! Clever write, nice vocals, wide panned drum fills.

Hi David ...
Glad you enjoyed the song! Thanks.
And yeah, I have always been aware of the "If" factor in their narrative. That leaves a bit of a gray area, So thanks for your input.
I have three or four songs for which BIAB has nothing even vaguely close. Thanks for your input - I appreciate it.
Take care,
Alan

“A tangled web of heartache, a case of full-time blues No color in my rainbows, just the darkest hues”
We love that!
We’re so glad you got this one out of the vaults, Alan.
Your vocals are great but we also thought what a perfect fit this song would’ve been for the Eagles for Glenn Frey.
Nice mix and fine piano too.
Enjoyed it!

J&B Hey Folks ... Why thank ya so much for all that kindness! I hadn't thought about the Glenn Fry connection, but I think you might be right. A real shame he passed away not that long ago. I was enjoying some of that Big Band stuff he was doing. Glad you enjoyed the song. Thanks for letting me know! Alan
