Hi you all! This song is a tribute to my former Band: QED, world famous in our home town , and especially our girlfriends, who supported us throughout, and eventually became our wives! Right at the beginning, through the mists of time , you'll hear the band on a live gig (1984) ... Then BIAB kicks in! A Lot of Love

With a lot of love... a lot of love With a lot of love... a lot of love
My friends in the arena of rock and roll you are allright sometimes we had a fight but we didn't care the girls were there to save us we loved them allways being around we made the sound, they made us fond of... A lot of Love!
With a lot of love... a lot of love With a lot of love... a lot of love
When your lonely, give your love a call few hours later, you're sitting in her hall give a lot of love and have a ball! give a lot of love....
So why don't do it go right through with it will make you feel allright The finest thing there is it would be a shame.... to miss...

hey Fred,
I like this quite a bit, for several reasons...
first and foremost because I identify with it! I married my band girlfriend too! Hats off to all the girls who support their guys in the band!
The song is very lively and catchy, but I think the star of the show is your vocals! perfect! Did you use any pitch correction? Because I don't hear anything remotely off in the vocals, and that's somewhat uncommon given the kind of sustained notes you're singing! Awesome! I also don't hear any artifacts to indicate that pitch correction was used, so I'm assuming you just nailed the vocals!
Clever idea introducing the song with a snippet from the original band!
Anyway, nice song all around! I like it a lot!

Pat, Thank you for listening and your kind comments. I do sing all the vocals almost in tune ☺. But I'm not a professional singer, so Melodyne finishes it off. Again, a good observation! Isn't it great to share those memories with your girlfriend/wife? It does make me curious to know what music you played. See you around, Pat! Fred hi fred smoking good job on this love this great job on vocals and guitar solo everything thanks for sharing eric Eric, Thanks for passing by! Coming from a great guitar player, I'm humbled by your compliments. See you F

Hi Fred. Wow. Sounded like the Beatles when it first started. LOVED the harmonies. Did you do them yourself? Great job. We want more...I was just about to ask if the was all BIAB and then I saw that you did the solo guitar.

Hi Fred,
A really nice rock song that made us get into the groove almost immediately! The song sounds solid in every way. We especially like the backing vocals! Really features that 60's/70's sound. Funny to see your song's specifics in Dutch!
Rob and Anne-Marie

I really envy people who can carry a tune, where's the app for that? Great harmonies, well written and performed. Catchy song.

Hey Fred.
That is a SUPERB track. Loved every minute of it.
The vocals are just perfect and you've got a great balance between the lead vox and the harmonies.
Everything hangs together in the mix and the track plays really LOUD without sounding over-compressed which is the sign of good engineering.
Wonderful song!
ROG.

Fred,
This is spectacular. Your production is stellar. You are quickly rising to the top... This is so nicely laid out... like a Nick Lowe production... it reminded me of The Knack. Or Badfinger... Super. Your "sense of Pop" is brilliant.
Stellar vocals. Nice, simple guitar solo that fits the song perfectly.
Several listens. It deserves that.
T O P.... N O T C H
(Great mix, too!)
Stellar!

Great tune!! Love that vintage Brit sound. I have never heard real tracks sound more "live". Excellent job with everything (write, vocals, arrangement). Thoroughly enjoyed it!! Take care. Greg

It's been said above and I agree -- very Beatlesque and the harmony absolutely nails that feel.
The write, the vocals, the arrangement, the guitar playing, the RT choice and the mix are all top notch.
And it kicks on my monitors!
There's a huge amount to like here.

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."
Happy Easter! Holiday Hours...

Our Customer Service hours this weekend are:
