Hi, friends! I did this to the memory of my dearest late wife Benita, whom I had the privilege to be married to for 42 years and who died of cancer 2 years ago. http://soundcloud.com/dani-lindroos/my-dearest-harmonyhttp://app.box.com/s/j1hd9v6r4wftgywq81khWith some added harmony vocals: http://app.box.com/s/30neu464t54rqqh4jkxbRecorded thru zoom H4n to mixcraft 6 on my laptop. Style: Floridas 16 th bar Gospel Lyrics: MY DEAREST You were my dearest for so long, now I´m alone and I don´t know how I am going to survive, when you´re not around I grew accustomed to be close to you for I loved you more than you ever knew loosing you got me ever oh ever so down Blues, I´ve got the blues Don´t know how to shake it loose I knew you darling since that magic day we met and fell in love I´m still on that way oh, If only God had let us, let us choose We would have traveled on together and would have both gone on forever but your illness took your life, we were ment to loose So I´m alone, at least I thought so but that´s not really true, you know, though, you´re not around you´re still here with me You´re with me and will forever be in my heart and in my memory I will cherish all the time that you shared with me .... copyright 2013

I don't know about you, but I'm a big fan of amazing feats of rhyming in musical lyrics. My all time favorites are the problems of rhyming something with the words "tragedy" and "handsome." Here's how it's done in Put on a Happy Face: Take off the gloomy mask of tragedy, it's not your style You'll look so good that you'll be.........................glad ya' de-cided to smile!And here's how it's done in Someone to Watch Over MeAlthough he may not be the man some girls think of as..................................handsome to my heart he carries the key
How 'bout that? I consider Dani's rhyme, below, to be right up there. So I´m alone, at least I thought so but that´s not really true, you know, though, Damn, that's good. In its entirety, My Dearest is a masterpiece. Dean Clark (aka Aleck Rand)

Hi, Dean, my good ol´partner !:))
You are just all too kind, my friend ! Having loved a person for over 50 years and going thru the decline in your dearest health is an experience that will leave a mark on your heart and soul. Maybe it was there all the time and just wanted to come out, I don´t know ?
You know, my friend , that I do appreciate your more than kind words.
Cheers Dani

Dani,
A very sweet song. I like the backing tracks. A good acoustic piano track would be a nice addition to this one (IMO). The drums were quite nice! Your vocal was solid. (harmony?)

Hi, Floyd !
Thank you for your most kind comments !:)) In fact I pondered for a long time if I should sing some additional vocal parts but ended up without them.......but, it may be that I will add some yet....I really do not know, I think I would have to try it out. I do have an idea about them, though !:)) I will check it out, yes !!
Cheers Dani

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."
