Kind of a long title, but it is what it is.

Not perfect, but just thought I'd get some feedback primarily regarding the song. My vocal isn't right on. I may redo this tune when I get completely over the flue. I couldn't stay in bed anymore LOL! Not sure about the mix either.

Anyway, give it a listen. Would love to hear your honest input.

Be Blessed everyone.

I wish I sounded that good when I was in perfect health! I don't think the flu stopped you at all on this! Nice, driving groove; simple, direct lyric message that really works. Your solo was right on. I really liked the stops you used in the chorus, plus how you 'snuck in' the organ right about in the middle of the track, then used it after that. In a 2nd listening, I can hear some high vocal notes that you probably want to tighten up. But, for the most part, I think this is real good as it stands. Thanks for sharing your work and your message.

Pretty good voice in spite of the flue.
I like the guitar solo. Is it yours?

Hi Guenter,

Everything in this one is BIAB. I was hoping to audition more solo's, but this worked ok, so I went with it.

I'll probably keep working on this one. Especially when I can get my vocals back.

Thank you for your listening and input.

Much appreciated.

WSE1,

This is very good. A few things are "backwards". Your vocals are terrific. Your tracks are as well. The rythym guitar is "too much out front". It's where your vocal should be. Swap that around. This is too good to have backwards. If that guitar is sitting at 9 (or even 10), your vocal is at 7. It neeads to be the other way around. Bring the vocal up a bit, knock that guitar back a bit. The organ could be up a hair. the lead guitar is at a good place...

I enjoyed the song. Your vocal is wonderful. It should be featured...

Excellent song, lyrics, vocal. The organ could come up some. Love the lead guitar. Thanks for sharing!

Hi Floyd.

I will get on it. When I redo the vocal, I will bring it up and get the strum down.

Thank you so much for listening and commenting. You're awesome !

A agree with Floyd on this one.

I will add that this song is way too good so completely polish it to the max.

Great lyrics also!

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!

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."
