I wrote this song when I was 25 but just finished a few months ago. I used my Rickenbacker 320 for the Rhythm track and played the bass track on my Hofner copy or a Jay Turser Beatle bass....I used to be in a Beatle Tribute band called "Revolver" so I have a lot of Beatle gear.

Anyway...I used Real band for the rest of the backing tracks...Got Brent Mason playing the lead on this one...

Here's the Link.... [Link no longer valid]

Thanks....Horst

do you perform live by any chance? (if not, have you in the past?)

There's something to your songs that's a little different than you normally hear hear from song writers who aren't also performers.

Anyway, I really liked the retro sound of this... it's very lively and would make a very danceable song in a live venue.

I liked the sudden stop at the end... (kinda like my parachute didn't open...)

Thanks Pat...

Yes I am a performer....I have been since I learned how to play the guitar when the Beatles came out....They're my heros...

I've also been writing songs since I was 14....so I have tons of songs....

I'm glad you enjoy them....My wife and I are currently working on a album on Real Band 2014....hope to finish it soon and upload it to tunecore...

Thanks again...

Horst

Loving it Horst. I have a song that uses a similar guitar sound and progression that Charlene and I wrote back in the 80's. Fun stuff. Really enjoyed your song, great arrangement and vocal.

You've got a fan here.

This one catches your attention fast. Really nice production and mix. My only complaint is I'll be walking around the house the rest of the afternoon saying "Hey Mama" to everybody and everything.

I enjoyed everything about this. Thanks for posting.

This has a great vibe.....

It starts off like a Johnny Winter song.... his cover of I Used to Love Her but it's All Over Now. I was singing that right along.

Nice work...I like this.

Your name sounds German. Have you got German roots?

see how my response includes your post? And it also includes your name? That's what happens when you click the QUOTE button.
As far as I can tell QUICK QUOTE does exactly the same thing.

REPLY and QUICK REPLY just pop you into an empty message box so you can write something

CONTACT MODERATOR is a button that lets the forum members help to moderate the forum. When spammers post off-topic messages, click the moderator button to notify them to remove that post.

EDIT reopens one of your own posts that is less than 24 hours old so you can edit mistakes. After that, you can't make edits.

I think there was formerly a difference between the buttons that do the same thing, but apparently that changed.

So if Quote and Quick Quote do the same thing why do we need to have two buttons for it...???

and the same goes for Reply and Quick Reply.....Why the extra buttons...????


Should we notify the Moderator about this?

I guess you could... but at this time of year everybody at PGMusic is probably rushing around trying to get ready for the release of BIAB 2015, and it's not in our best interest to distract them with other tasks right now.

The difference between quick reply and reply/quote and quick quote is because reply/quote expands and allows more advance editing options from the basic quick quote/quote post. For example, reply provides the option of File Manager to attach a photo or other file to your post.

You also have posting icons and a tool bar for additional options with Reply. The same with Quote and quick quote.

Ho Horst ...

When I saw your first post and name, I told my wife, "I'll bet he's originally from Germany." I lived there 12 years in the 70;s and 80's.

This a super song that takes me back in time in various ways. I hear Johnny Winter, John Fogerty, a bit of George Harrison, and some Freddy Weller.

Nice vocals and the music tracks were spot on. We really enjoyed our listen! Best to you ...

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."
