First: thank you ALL for your kind comments on my last two songs. I've been away for a while and didn't really want to bump the songs up individually to clog up the forum, haha ... but genuine thank you for your kind comments!!!

I've released my "second album", i.e. a collection of what I feel are my best songs over the past nine months or so. These include three remixes which I include here individually ... if nothing else, just to show that I do actually listen and take into account all of the feedback I get on here and actually do try to follow it to improve my songs! :-) Here they are - am very curious as to what you may think of the newly remixed tracks! Thank you so much for listening and for any comments!

The so-called album can be found here:

I'm sorry I don't have the band specifications for each individual song, but I've posted all of the songs on here before and they are to be found there - hope that's ok. I hope you enjoy :-)

Wonderful, James. A fine collection of tunes showing off your special talent. I'll listen to the whole album now. Streaming seems to be making The Album a lost art. You write some interesting changes and select the right musicians to play them.


Enjoy whatever happens!

James ...

I just realized I left you a comment on all three songs on Soundcloud but failed to leave you a comment here ... my apologies. Congrats on the album ...sounds terrific to me. You have a special talent that I enjoy very much. Your lyrics are always well-thought and interesting. You do a really good job of picking just the right backing tracks. Always a pleasure to hear you!

Wishing you everything good. Merry Christmas.

Alan

Thank you all so much!

BabuMusic: wow, I didn't expect you or anyone to listen to the whole thing, haha. You must have a strong resistance to pain! haha - but thank you! - and thanks for such nice and kind words!

floyd jane: thanks. It's not really an album ... nor a release, come to think of it ... just a few songs cobbled together and put out there, really - but thank you.

Alan: too kind as always. You always give me encouraging comments which, for good or bad, encourage me to keep creating :-) Thank you so much - take good care of yourself and have a wonderful and Happy Christmas. Thanks again - it truly is humbling and spiritually uplifting to hear such nice words about my songs from someone as accomplished as you.

James,
I tried to listen to the album but Soundcloud offered OOPS! I'll try again later.


Cheers

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.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
