If you have not seen this... watch (or listen)!

It is incredible on SO many levels.

What a shame that we just "throw away" the greats...

Hi, Floyd !


I did both (listen and watch) !
If I´m not mistaken this is
one of his absolute last tunes
(and one of his best too) !
It is an old man´s settlement
with his life....and in the end...
what do we have to carry with us ?
What have we really achieved in this world ?

Being 66 I consider myself young,
but every now and then (
nowadays maybe even more often than earlier)
you run into situations like this, especially
when your old schoolmates and aquaintances
are starting to walk into the unknown !

But Floyd, this might have sounded
a bit cynical, in reality I am an optimist
living one day a time thankful for
each new morning I can still jump out
of the bed and run around on my own two
feet !:))

Cheers
Dani

floyd,

I remember this the 1st time I heard this, but have never seen the video. WOW.

thank you for reminding me of that and then his version of Personal Jesus.

My wife, soon to be ex, took the album.

I love the song and the performance was as good as it could get. Great sing and perfect fit for Mr. Cash.

I very often do this tune in my live gigs.

Thanks for the post.

What I always admired about this was Johnny's willingness to try a project with a hot young producer out of his genre. And it brought him a whole new generation of young fans.

PS. About throwing away the greats.... We did a special on the air when Conway Twitty died and you wouldn't believe the number of irate calls complaining "why didn't we play more of his music when he was alive". Today there are classic country stations and with the internet, streaming and youtube, depending on the strength of their fanbase of course, I think artists have a shot at more musical longevity now than they've ever had.

Some fans though have a "garden party" attitude. They only like the old hits and reject the newer stuff as the artist changes... I guess that's for the shrinks to decipher...

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.

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."
