Thank you Floyd, Yes I think the Cello gives it an extra dimension otherwise it would’ve been a fairly flat track. I did try a violin, but that was totally at odds to the tune. The violin wanted to be the main instrument and no matter what track I used it just didn’t want to fit. Thank you for listening, appreciate your feedback. Kind regards

Hi Ray, I'm not all that good when it comes to providing useful critique, so I'll steer clear of offering suggestions. I just wanted to let you both know that I really like this. The arrangement and the production have a very polished sound. I agree with floyd when he said "this sounds finished". I thought that too. I love these lyrics and the way they flow. Steve's vocals worked for me. You have both created an excellent song. --Noel

Hi Andrew. I really enjoyed listening to this. I can definitely hear overtones of Motown, especially in that driving bass that you've got happening. The write (music and lyrics) is very well done, and the arrangement is very engaging and well planned. In fact, after I listened to your song I went had a listen to the Temptations! You entertained me  --Noel

Hi Bob. This is a beautiful and evocative musical journey. You and Joliz really shine brightly. DC Ron description was a perfect fit for how I heard this song. His words nailed it: "Gorgeous, Bob. Like eavesdropping on someone's most personal, private thoughts, but not in a creepy way at all. Super vocals by you and Joliz. Your voices mesh so well." As with all that you and Joliz do, this was a wonderful musical experience. To cap it all off, I really enjoyed watching the video that you prepared as I listened. Really terrific music. --Noel

Hi Marty. Now that was really enjoyable. The minute I heard the 12/8 rhythm, you got me! I love lilt that comes with compound signatures. You created and mixed a great band to show off your talents, too. Excellent songwriting that entertained me on a number levels. You have a creative flair that I envy. I'm a fan! --Noel

Hi Dave. You and Chris are a powerhouse of excellent music. This ticks all the boxes: great bass from Marty, excellent vocals from Chris, first class guitar work from you, and a truly satisfying mix to listen to. I really love your and Chris's presentations. Without exception, everything that the two of you do is top notch (and then some). --Noel

FANTASTIC blues song! Janice's vocals are absolutely perfect for this genre, plus I love Pete's guitar solo. One of my all time favourite blues songs, in part for the arrangement and superb instrumental break, is Moby Grape's "Miller's Blues" from the late 60s. I think Pete would appreciate the guitar solo. Thanks for the nice supportive review. Much appreciated! Yes Miller’s Blues is a great tune. We were familiar with it but had a revisit after reading this. They were packed with talent. J&B

Makes sense that this is likely Pipeline. He was memorable. Without my asking, he once built me a custom script to work around an intermittent BiaB dual screen bug that the PGMusic team couldn't help with. One hardware DAW and two BiaB versions later, I still use it. So that was a real positive experience. And another: Found his posts about Reaper integration with BiaB to be so inspirational that I spent three days or so trialing Reaper. Didn't work out for me. Still... On the other hand, his latest video is cool, but I don't think I have a need for the functionality.

Aha, this might work for me (what was said above): “You can sort the list of styles or listen to an instant preview by double-clicking on a style.” When I double-click on a highlighted style, BIAB indeed says it is auditioning it (and doesn't change my current style ... so far so good!). However, I don't hear anything. I hear the song fine in BIAB when I press the Play button. So, why don't I hear any sound when I'm auditioning a Style? If I can get this to work (sound-wise), I think I'd be good to go.

Listened a few days ago, giving it another spin now as I type. Nice arrangement Scott, great tone, nice variations on the melody, and I dig the modulations too. Good stuff!

Risi, firstly welcome to the forums. I believe that I follow your explanation, however, a video would be an excellent idea. As they say: "a picture is worth a thousand words" Also, do let us know what build number you are using (Help > About).

Hi David, As Brain already said, this is the exact opposite of the David we know. And I was shocked by the title of the other song here: "How great thou art" (I'm listening to it right now), because that title sounded so religious! If I focus on The Glade, I have to say that I really loved the guitar playing and the melody. Beautifully done! But that second song also gave me a very pleasant feeling, something like: David, "thou" are just amazing on that acoustic guitar! And right after that, a satisfied "sigh..." from within. But I do hope you keep both feet on the ground and remain "a rebel"! Beautiful instrumental tracks are one thing, but a song with a voice like a broken plate and lyrics so razor sharp... well, that will also be "how great thou art," I think I like that too! Hans

Superlative. In every way. One of your best, for sure. Incredible vocal, the musical and lyrical writing is spectacular. Bravo, Floyd. Thanks, James. Floyd. Great lyric and rocking production. And yes. I can hear your vocal in it. Vic Thanks, Vic. Wow, this sounds great Floyd! Love the heavy groove. I'm amazed at the vocal, I can sort of tell it was you but only because I'm listening really closely after reading your notes, I think if you hadn't told us I wouldn't have guessed. Makes me want to try it myself!  BIAB lead player is good, but I'm surprised you didn't record your own part, I think your chops are as good as his. Great music as always, Floyd, enjoyed very much. Really appreciate that, Dave. Thanks for the comment on "chops" - the BIAB lead seemed like what I would have played myself, so I saw no reason to swap it out (which I had considered)

Herb, this ex-country boy loves this song; I live in a housing track now and this is a city to me. But I miss my country living days. No bright lights, no neighbors, and the ability to shoot a 22 with no problems. I digress but your song brought back some very happy memories. I loved this song. I lived in a small town with an official population of 201 when I moved in with my bride to our new 100 year old home. When we moved out it had exceeded 1000 people easily. There's a lot to be said about front porch sitting and conversations with neighbors over the back fence about how the garden is growing, but there's also a freedom in not having people living 100 feet away from you and having their yard lights shining in your bedroom windows at night. Thanks for listening. Glad to be able to help kindle the old recollections.
