A Petal From A Rose

The first instrumental I ever did with BIAB. Recorded this in early 2012. Unfortunately, I no longer have the tracks or style I used. But, it is all BIAB. I created it using BIAB 2011. Thanks for listening. Will be by to listen to all of you tonight.

Hey Rob ...

Great to hear from you! I've not been around much the past couple of weeks. Fortunately, it wasn't my wife's health this time. Real life has a way of stealing your time. But, I should be around a bit more for a while.

Thank you for those very nice comments. The chord progression for the chorus is a bit atypical but it just fell into place. Sometimes I get lucky! Thanks again.

This is really lovely, especially for a first tune from the program! Really well textured and melodic - and nice and easy on the ears.

Thanks for sharing with us smile

Thats sound excellent Al.

I also joined that year and I can barely listen to some of the mixes I did then.

You started strong and have maintained a high level of excellence.

Nice progression and that clean guitar sounds very melodic. You choose your tracks very, very well.

Enjoyable!

This was a nice piece and interestingly from 2012 !!.

Just shows what was achievable in the program then.

Enjoyed Thanks

Hi Deryk,

Always a true pleasure to hear from you and all the great folks at PG Music. It wasn't the very first song - the first was "Burning", a vocal by my wife. But this was the first instrumental. So glad you enjoyed it!

Hi Folks!

That was so nice of you to say. Thank you sincerely. It's so rewarding to know the effort shows through on some of my songs. Wishing both of you the very best ...

First BIAB instrumental, but maybe even your best. That chord progression is absolutely superb and the guitars create beautiful atmosphere from those chords. Has both jazz and pop feel, which is great to my ears.

I was using 2011 until a few months ago - a strong package from BIAB and this demonstrates it's capabilities well.

Great progression that moves and carries the guitar well. A very enjoyable listen.

Hi Scott ...

Glad you liked it! Actually, it wasn't my first song - it was my first instrumental. Our first song was an RnB vocal by Di called "Burning". Glad you liked it!

Dear Alan,

even if this tune had been posted anonymously I would have immediately known that it's a song of yours. Soooo nice and sooo well played - wow! Just beautiful . And timeless.

Best regards to Di and you,

Stefan

Hi Alan,

Once again you had me sitting back in my chair, feet on the desk, eyes closed and, inside my mind, sailing along on the sound of your wonderful music.

You are a master of chord progressions. I love the way that you lead me along so smoothly and so effortlessly.

Another terrific listen.

All the best to you and Di,
Noel
