"Is it dog-eared and battered It's not torn beyond repair One more journey on the water Don't let your heart despair I'll be waiting for you there"
What a chorus! That one will stick with you, indeed. Great vocals and a really cool supportive arrangement. The percussion is perfect. The ethereal sound of the harmonies really fit with the entire vibe. Great job all the way around!!

I hope you all don't mind instead of responding to each of you who've commented since Bob has already done that and it's been a long work day for me that I just type this to thank you all very much for your comments. I appreciate all of you very much.
Bob was so sweet in giving me card blanche with his cool original lyrics and BB file on this song. I just loved the pictures he painted in this. So after a little rearranging of verses tweaking the overall arrangement and then a little rewriting of the chorus, I was really glad he related to the changes and we were on the same page. The harmonies were playing in my head so it was fun to finally hear them with his final vocal which he sang so beautifully. It was also nice to find a mandolin RT that played off the bongos really nice with a just a little editing. It was kept purposely simple instrument wise to stay true to the underlying folk vibe. Bob choosing the ethereal sound when he did the final mix added an air of freshness I thought was a nice touch.
It was a fun collab after not doing one together for a while. We'd been planning on doing a new one for some time.
Oh yeah, no pitch correction, no harmonizers - (not that there's anything wrong with that) - this one - true to the genre - is all us. <grin>
Thank each of you again for all of the positive feedback, Bob and I appreciate it very much.
Josie

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."
