Hi Scott,

Like the combination of the harmonica and the Resonator guitar.
A nice and relaxed song.


We are Rob Meulman and Anne-Marie Bovenkamp from The Netherlands.

Get those solos right... once again, this is too good to have anything "not quite what it should be"....

Very enjoyable.

Thanks Floyd. Yes, I spent a little more time on the drums now that I understand the style variations and so on:)

It's really an experiential thang regarding mixing sw and ev RT's. I frequently put a swing bass on our bluegrass compositions and although the BG tracks are ev it works fine. For years I'd play a swingish walking bass with our BG band and get away with it -- or at least I think I did smile I've mixed a few sw and ev RTs other than just BG and, in general, I can feel them fighting each other or at best gently tugging -- which may work.


So hard to know if the RT's embellishments and the riffs are too much or not enough. Glad the harmonica worked. On the ev and the sw RT's, yep, gotcha'.

The drums are sounding good. The vocal is good. The mix is good, but as others have said the solos need work. You are most definitely heading in the right direction. Keep writing! Tom


Thanks Tom. Actually, I'm somewhat in the minority too. I'm asking a lot from the listener to wait around till the end of the chorus to find out what the heck that 'Quite' meant. I took a chance there, I know....



Ya'll know I value your critiques and appreciate the listens. I hear what you're saying.

Thank you sir!

Mighty fine line listen. You know I gotta like it since it has the word "chemistry" in there!


Glad you enjoyed the song and the lyrics.

"Talk them apples right into the pie" indeed! That's a video I'd like to see.
Thanks for posting this one.


Thanks for that Sonny. The song came to me as an old timey country tune, but I never would have guessed Roger Miller or Tom T. Hall:)

Easy big fella stick to the script.


DA...


Ha! Thanks Eric.

I like your song a lot.

Thanks for listening Josie:) I really wanted some driving, twangy Nashville guitar to help nudge this song into the present. I'll have to give it another go.

Thanks so much for those kind words.

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."
