This is one of my Government Protest Songs aimed at Corrupt Politicians, Bankers and Government Workers....

The drum track was imported from my (Ringo) drummer in Portland Oregon....he just played to the wma file I sent him and saveed it in a wave format...then I imported it into the song...I played my Gretsch and my Gibson J-160E and also played bass...my wife and daughter sang harmonies....and I used Realband to put it all together...

Enjoy....

Horst,

A very cool song. A bit Beatles, a bit Buffalo Springfield...

Terrific vocals and a nice mix...

And... Welcome! to the forum - good to have you - it will be nice to have those kinds of influences represented.

You will find, however, that your songs will get a lot more attention (which I think they deserve) if you do one at a time. Give it, perhaps, a week before posting another. Give people time to listen and comment before moving on to the next...(just a suggestion, of course)...

This was quite enjoyable.

yeah, what Floyd said! It really does have a 60's British rock sound in places...
a little bit Beatles, a little bit Stones, A little bit Gerry and the Pacemakers etc

Horst,

+1

Thought this one had a bit of the Monkees sound in there too. And enjoyed the family harmonies as well.

Nice song, production and mix. The harmonies are really nice and you do have a good handle on Beatles style rhythm. With tons of songs, it looks like we'll be enjoying your songs for a very long time....

If you find this subject inspiring, sad to say that you'll never run out of material. Like others, I hear a lot of 60s in there, and like others, I LOVE the 60s. Really wonderful organic sound! Loving your stuff! Take care. Greg

Ah, the British Invasion is back! The vocals, with the harmony, are terrific. We're not much on prtest songs, but we enjoyed our listen. the singing and backing tracks are terrific.

Best to you ...

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!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

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."
