Everything is right with this: vocal, energy, composition, and mix.

Nigel,
Yeah, this one is pretty cool. Love that drum—the snare really resonates; drives the tune forward. Terrific vocal as well. Easy to imagine sitting in a smoky blues bar listening to this played live. The place would be jumping! Great work!
All my best to you,
Deej

Hi Dewey,
Thanks for your comments - as with all my songs I render around 7 takes of each of the solo instruments and then cut in paste in my Daw (Reaper). Obviously very time consuming but worthwhile.
Best Regards Nigel

A fun listen, fun lyrics and great execution of vocals. A good showcase of using Band in a Box backing tracks.

Nigel, this is professional all the way
Super groove, had my foot tapping from the git-go
Outstanding vocal and lyrics
Excellent use of the blues harp.
Loved it
PS - I would not post the Realtrack musician's names as those without BiaB would think that those musicians actually in the room recording with you.
I want my last spoken words to be "I hid a million dollars under the........................"
64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware

Hi Hans,
Thanks for all your very generous comments.
Drums - I think the Real Drums (BluesRockShuffle^2) are already quite bright and upfront. I mixed the drums quite loud and gave them a short medium sized room reverb (not a long large room or hall reverb) with a saturation of 14%. I then had to roll off a little of the highs because the drums were jumping out of the mix.
Mix - I try and make all the instruments and vocals sound like they are recorded in the same room at the same time.
Best Regards Nigel

Nigel,
This track is smokin'! Pro quality mix not to mention exceptionally good harp and guitar! Your vocals are the icing on the cake! Everything sounds like it's sitting where it should be! Thanks, Torrey

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."
