Thanks! I think I got lucky with that banjo but it was a bear to splice up.

B&J, I have been a fan of song of this song for a long time. This version stands up against any that have been recorded in the past.

Just the right amount of crispness and low end. Definitely a lesson in how acoustic instruments should be processed. Who knew a banjo could sound so funky. Outstanding work! Oh yeah you too Janice. Tom


Well fromr somebody whose mastering I really admire that means a lot. Thanks Tom!

The duet is great. Loved it. Oh, and add great job on that mix too Bud!

Thanks Josie. Back in my bluegrass band days...."what do you call 5,000 banjo players on the bottom of the ocean?"
"A good start!"

Every one of them a pure joy...

Bud's artistry with the RT palette.

Janice's incredible vocal.

Joy.

Thanks for letting me be a part of this, guys!

Wow, that means a LOT floyd. And a big thanks to you for helping convince me not to shelve the project. I wasn't even planning on backing it up!

I coulda swore I commented on this already..... but I can't find it... I might have clicked off the page.... I've done that before.

I remember writing about the line "If the river was whiskey...." That's in an old Savory Brown song called Louisiana Blues. Savoy had just broken up, and Foghat was the new band that came out of the breakup.... man I loved that song.... and when I went to the Foghat show, their hit song at the time was, "I just wanna make love to you", they didn't really have many other hits, so they covered a bunch of SB tunes and Louisiana Blues was one of them and they jammed it out to fill some stage time.

Your version is cool... nice instrumentation and vocals.

I'm late to the party, glad I came and really glad you didn't toss this one out!

It's all been said so all that I can add is I loved it!

This is a keeper.


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

OMG! Wow! this B**c* ROCKS!!!

You guys (and gal) hit a sweet spot as far as I'm concerned. I would put this up there with the best of Zeppelin stealing and re-arranging to create something unique and original. (not that you stole this!)

There is so much energy, I don't know what else to add.

Surprised to see this one pop up again but glad you found it. I'm glad you liked it....it took me months to warm up to it before I posted it. I guess it was because I'd heard the song by so many artists over the last 50 years that I was worried about "doing it justice." Thanks!

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."
