Thank you very much for those words of encouragement. We worked hard on this one. We're big fans of the Big Band era and drift over that way quite a bit with our writing. Glad it worked for you!

Good Evening Floyd!

Thank you so much for those great comments. I think you and we are the only ones who remember ole Vic! Yes, what a coincidence you thought about him as you listened before reading. I guess that suggests we hit the intended mark pretty close. Glad everything worked well for you. And yeah, near the end there were a few piano chords that rung a little too loud. Will remedy that with some compression.

Thanks again! As always, enjoy hearing your comments.

Hi Greg ...

It's always a pleasure to hear from you. Di and I are big fans of that smooth voice of yours! Glad you enjoyed the piece.

The third lines are the same approximate melody as the firsts, but I but I sang to the lower octave at the end of the third lines to contrast with singing to the higher octave on the first lines. We'll look at that again in the near future. Best to you ...

Hi Scott ...

Yep, novelist and composer! But the difference is I'm occasionally making decent money from the novels! We're delighted you enjoyed the groove. It's one of our favorites genres. Wishing you well.

Hey J & B ...

Always a treat to hear from you! Glad it works for you. We tried to capture the sound of the era rather than make it neo or contemporary. That's what the college wanted and it pleased us to do it. Thanks again. Best to the both of you ...

Kevin ...

Thanks so much for your kind words about the songs all along. And we're delighted to have BIAB!!!! there's still so much we need to learn about it but I read something from that danged iser's manual almost every day.

As far as the vocal, you're right about the pops and explosive blurts. Our good mic ( a very expensive AT condensor mic) is in for repair and we're using a $59.00 Peavey without a filter. Will redo this one, and a few others, once we have our good mic back. It's so much easier to get vocal compression with the condensor mic, too. Will resolve all that soon. Thanks again!

Hi Josie ...

Thank you for for the warm welcome back. And your comments were almost as pretty as you. We sure do appreciate them! We tried to be true to the eraq rather than modernizing the song. Glad it works for you!

I enjoyed a period of time where I composed quite a few jazz tunes with BB. In all of them, I never considered trying to write lyric or sing it. So, they all ended up as instrumentals. And that was probably for the best.

Nice work on this song.

Hi Herb!

Thanks for the very kind words ... glad you enjoyed it! Standards and big-band jazz are two of our very favorite genres. This would have sounded a bit better (actually, quite a bit better) had Di been singing. She's experiencing some serious respiratory issues and hasn't been able to sing for a couple of months and will still be a while before she can sing again. Until then, you'll just have to put uip with me and a bunch of instrumentals!

Thanks again! Always a pleasure to hear fromn you.

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!

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first?

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."
