Hi all. Here is a new one. All comments invited. Not sure if Ive over done the delay on the vocals. Hope you like it. Rob Took My Love Took my love I took my love into to town. I took my love into to town. She spent my hard earned money on things not necessary. When I made a protest she seemed derog atory. Bucket loads of money and things Ive never seen. Even bought a washing board to wash my old blue jeans. I took my love down by the river side. I took my love down by the river side. She scared away the catfish mosquito's buzzing round. She shoved me in the water man I almost drowned. Complained about spiders and webs in all the trees. You know I couldn't stand it bought me to my knees. Took my love to the ocean blue. Took my love to the ocean blue. Complained about the sea birds gliding through the air. Cursed the coastal breezes for tangling up her hair. Said she her skin was peeling wanted to go home. If I had only known I took my love into to town. I took my love into to town. She spent my hard earned money on things not necessary. When I made a protest she seemed derog atory.

Even bought a washing board to wash my old blue jeans. ****** Song Summary ************* Title: I took my love into to town File:I took my love into to town.SGU Key=C , Tempo 130, Length (m:s)=2:31 2 bar intro, 76 bar chorus, from bar 3 to bar 78.

Fun tune!! Very clever and well done. RTs were jammin'!! Got a kick out of it. If I were you, I'd lighten up on the verb on this one. Very cool track!! Take care. Greg

Very nice Rob. Almost a traditional kind of sound somehow. Love the lyrics. They certainly ring a bell with me. And great job on the vocals and harmonies. Cheers

Regardless the genre, you get an authentic traditional vibe in your songs as well as anybody can. Bluegrass is a personal favorite genre and I have no doubt any traditional bluegrass radio station would play this tune over and over. Charlie

Nice job Rob. There are some well crafted lyrics here. Too much delay on the vocal. You have a good feel for this genre. Another great vocal. Tom

Very cool and as a long time bluegrass picker I know the purist will argue about the vocal effects...so be it. It's cool to hear something different. Great job! J&B

Hi Rob, What a great listen! Bluegrass is a personal favourite of mine and you did it justice! As others have noted, there are some truly inspired lines in these lyrics. I'm heading back to another run through. Regards, Noel

Rob,
Your songs are always so much fun to listen to and this one is no exception. Your songs are always so descriptive that it's easy to imagine the scenes. No one else has mentioned it but that is an outstanding ending. I don't know how you did it but it sounded like the mandolin and fiddle doubled each other.

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."
