Hi all, here's a blues song about a girl who plays mandolin. Her music can be useful to forget her sadness...... RD BossaBrushes RT 713 Acoustic bass RT 573 Electric guitar RT 626 Blues harp RT 1864 Mandolin RT 1648 Solo guitar Hey, Charline, laisse tomber ton spleen et prends ta mandoline ! La musique est pour toi une mine, elle regorge de vitamines. Je suis là avec ma guitare. Ton blues, on s’en empare ! Si celui-ci, ce soir, t’anime sors donc les notes qui l’expriment. https://soundcloud.com/christian-devienne/le-blues-de-charline

Nice mix and an interesting song. I enjoy hearing your voice as you have a lot of natural vibrato.

Thanks a lot, Jim, for your comment ! For this song, I've tried to translate the lyrics and sing it in English ! I did what I could...... https://soundcloud.com/christian-devienne/charleens-blues Charleen’s blues Hey Charleen, please give up your spleen and take your mandolin ! Music is for you like a mine, dig and you will feel fine. Next to you, there is my guitar. Your blues, we’ll send it far ! If, this evening, it worries you play all notes which are blue !

Salut Chris.
Très bonne chanson. J'ai écouté à les deux version et je dois dire que je préfère l'un en français.
C'est difficile toujours à traduire une chanson et préserver le rime. Tu a le fait trés bien. La ligne première est peut-être un peu bizarre, mais les autres marchent bien.
Mais qu'est-ce que je peux dire? Mon français est pas génial!
J'aime beaucoup ton travaille.
Cordialement, ROG.

Hi all, I've made a new version for this french minor blues. I've changed and added lyrics. I've also modified solos. Christian
Hey Charline, qu’est-ce qui te chagrine ? J’aime pas quand tu rumines. J’aime quand tu chantes Janis Joplin et que tout s’illumine. Quand le blues sort de tes entrailles, c’est un " chant " de bataille. Tu produis par ta voix mutine une bonne dose de morphine.
Hey Charline, rejoins-nous sur scène, la salle est presque pleine. Tu pourras y briser tes chaînes, faire le plein d’oxygène. Si le blues te colle à la peau, viens le chanter bien haut. Dis-toi que quand ta voix résonne, y’en a qui en frissonnent !

Christian, Nice arrangement - very well constructed. Cool lyric - I didn't know mutine was the verb of mutiny - I'd always known it as mutiny - too perform a mutiny. I've learnt something again today. Enjoyed the song - Charline's a great name for a modern French Janis.

That is an interesting and effective mashup of RTs.
The mandolin works really well in your arrangement as does your nice vocal.
Well done and we enjoyed it!!

Thanks Ray, In the lyrics, " voix mutine " means " rebellious voice " like Janis's voice was ! Christian

Thanks Janice and Bud, I really think a mandolin can sound very bluesy. Christian

Really nice work on this one The mandolin was a wonderful addition, and your vocal performance is top notch. The natural vibrato in your voice is really apparent on this one. It flows smoothly and has a really nice groove. Thanks for sharing!
Cheers, Deryk

Great voice and song, sounds like it came out of a film, love hearing TJ Klay get some work on the harp.

Christian, I don't recall hearing your voice on a tune before....you should do it more often! It's a very intriguing song that holds the listeners attention all the way through! Loved the instrument choice, especially the bass! Thanks, Torrey

Nice work Christian! This is beautifully put together and engineered, crisp and clear. The vocal is just right. I loved the gypsy jazz feel.

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."
