Nice and simply done. Simple is usually best. As a nit pick I would have liked a "resolve" at the end. Maybe something but not exactly like "So choose your ground with love and care. Don't cast your dream any old where." Vic

<,..snip...> My wife has some idea what some of the things I have are worth. If she dies first, I don't care what happens to the "stuff" when I die. <...> If my wife goes first, I don't care where my stuff goes either. It definitely won't be my problem. My main asset is my house. I bought wisely. For 60K in 1990 I bought a house one lot away from the Indian RIver Lagoon. From living in FL, I observed the closer to the salt water, the greater the rate of appreciation. It's actually on 2 lots. The house is on one, and the other is vacant (I've re-wilded it with native plants that grow here, and a gopher tortoise built his den there). A house on a single lot, but 2 lots farther from the water, similar to mine just sold for $399k, it was sold in a week, and the buyer didn't even barter on the price. If Mrs. Notes or I, whoever is the last person standing needs money for a nursing home, my double lot should do. If not, whoever inherits the house is paid well to clean up what we left there.

Izzy. Bags full of punch here gives a great rocking, foot tapping sound. Well done. Vic Late Apology 🥺 Cheers, Vic! I’m glad the bags of punch didn't just end up being bags of air. Glad to hear the track is foot-tapping. I was worried it might just be foot-shuffling-to-find-the-off-switch , so this is a relief! Thanks for taking the time to listen and comment. best Izzy.

It's a pity that the problem persists in the Audiophile version of BIAB2026.

Hey, all. I bought the JGMC a few years ago on sale but held off until I was better. I tried it last night (love that Windows 3.1 interface) and right off the bat, Oliver Gannon says something about chord sheets with Xs to indicate muted strings. I clicked everywhere but can't find any traditional chord charts to print out. Am I looking for something that doesn't exist and I'm supposed to just follow the animated fretboard? As far as I can tell, there's the toolbar, a piano keyboard, the guitar fretboard, and then a huge window where I can either have help tips or midi notation. Am I missing something? Cheers, doogiet

I have purchased the bias 2026 for Mac and it seems that the Guitar Chord Diagrams feature in the notation window has been removed. Is this a bug or am I missing something? ![[Linked Image]](https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=download&Number=32749&filename=Screenshot 2026-06-16 at 19.57.14.png)

Man, i really really like the melody and the progression. Great chord movement that takes the melody to exciting levels if engagment. I also really like your old description of it: "A real fairy tale: the main character becomes free from the author's leash". All the lyrics in this are swell (as Andy Hardy would say). Very different, and i really enoyed the video too. Thanks Marty for your pleasant comment I'm glad to hear what you said about the chord movements. Janne

Excellent use of BIAB, sounds very pleasant and smooth, like a breath of fresh air from the 70s. Very nice chord progression creates a comforting mood despite the sad subject. Janne

Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.
Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.
