Hi Floyd, So you lined up a few guitars again ☺ I counted 8!!!
Another song that I consider study material. But first... Enjoying the song! Great fun!
"that shirt he wears with f.j. on the pocket ya know your brother's name is clem device"
LOL!
You know I'm a fan ☺
Things are a little slow here indeed, 4 songs in the pipeline, but just bought a Gretsch ☺, and we're going caravaning near saint tropez for two weeks ... So I'm taking a little break. Hopefully there's wifi there.
I have prepared a dvd with the best of the user Showcase forum to take along.
Always near you all!
Fred
PS The link works great!
Thanks, Fred. I'm sure by now folks realize all those guitars are taking turns - all at once would be a train wreck... I am a little surprised that no one pointed out the mashup of SW and EV taking place... floyd, Yeh country as it should be!! and I can relate to them words There are some good lines in this song "but your brother's just a moocher five finger rendezvous" and "cause every time we visit him it looks like i'm at home" Good song floyd and Bill The new link works great, but then I didn't have a prob with the other one! Alyn Thanks, Alyn... Great comedy style write. Clever word-smithing.
Thanks, Herb...

floyd, This one has more guitars than my local pawn shop.... Tom Bwahahahaha....couldn't put that better. Just when after 2+ years of listening to the many versions of the "floyd voice" you throw out one that is just enough different to wonder: Is it your delivery? The processing? The mix? Dunno, but it really works well with this tune. Engaging and clever lyric, melody the above mentioned vocal and a fine production, i.e., the old fj usual. J&B

floyd, This one has more guitars than my local pawn shop. Great editing on the leads. Top write, mix, production and performance. Congratulations on another fine piece of work. Tom LOL... thanks, Tom... appreciate the "reverb help" and the lyric note... Hi Floyd,
very clever and funny lyrics. Arrangement and presentation are your usual high standard. Your consumption of guitars is amazing. My regards to Bill. A great collab.
Guenter Thanks, Guenter. Bill is an excellent lyricist - he has better prosody than some people who write both lyric and melody - sometimes I wonder how he manages that... Hi there Floyd,
This is a nice 'working' style country song. Steady as always, I also very much like the talking in the end, haha. Of course no soloist fits better here than Brent. It's the first time I didn't have to use the Windows media player on your website. This new slider works flawlessly in my browser.
Rob Thanks, Rob - appreciate all that... I wasn't even aware that people might be having issues with the old audio control... this new one is part of the html 5 spec - so I gave it a try - and I'm glad I did...

Floyd, I really like this. Excellent from start to finish! Although it does seem a little weak on guitar tracks. Greg HA! - thanks, Greg... I'll have to try adding more next time!!! Nice song. Funny lyrics and they always say the funniest stories are laced with truth. No problem with the new slider here.
Charlie Thanks, Charlie - appreciate the listen. This one reminds me of a "song challenge" write. Your given a topic, or title or some starting point and everyone in the group returns the next week with their take of the challenge.
I use to be in a group like that and I enjoyed it immensely.
So if the challenge was "Given Up For Lent" this song would have knocked all the other entries clean out of contention!
Simply a super reinterpretation and development of a lyrical idea! Thanks, Lawrence. Most of that was Bill's doing. I did some tweaking and polishing (and the music)... I did a "word play" song recently that was so over-the-top (with the word play) that my wife commented "If it were a competition, no one could come close... but why would they want to?" HA!

Hi floyd, That was a terrific listen!!! Very catchy lyrics, very catchy melody and the rhythm had my feet dancing around under the computer chair. The mix was crystal clear and the arrangement had a studio sound from start to end. There was nothing "BIAB" about this at all. Kudos to you both on a spectacular song. When I heard your vocals, it took me a bit by surprise. I don't know what you did but it wasn't the usual sound that I have grown accustomed to. Sounded fine though. I like it Heading back to play it again ... All the best, Noel P.S. Love the way you and Bill have worked this pun with the lyrics. It gives a whole new perspective on a very common phrase.

Excellent all round Floyd. Did you do something a little different with your vocal on this one? It sounded different but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. Maybe the country "twang".
Loved it.

Dunno, but it really works well with this tune. Engaging and clever lyric, melody the above mentioned vocal and a fine production, i.e., the old fj usual. J&B I seem to be getting a number of comments that my vocal "sounds different" in this... I'm not sure I hear it - but it certainly must be so... This was done before I moved to Studio One (where I have changed the way I process vocals) - this would be somewhat drier... but it also may be the "attitude" that this lyric evokes... so I guess you hit the nail - delivery, processing, mix. Fun song. Hi to Bill as well.
Regards,
Bob Thanks, Bob... Bill seems to have gone into hibernation... Hi floyd, That was a terrific listen!!! Very catchy lyrics, very catchy melody and the rhythm had my feet dancing around under the computer chair. The mix was crystal clear and the arrangement had a studio sound from start to end.

Love the way you and Bill have worked this pun with the lyrics. It gives a whole new perspective on a very common phrase. Thanks, Noel! The main pun was Bill's doing - and what drove the whole thing (obviously). Always good to hear that something "rises above" the BIAB "evidence". Interesting conundrum - we couldn't do this without BIAB - and we want everyone to know about it - but we still want to have a mix "get past" that... (see my comment to J&B about the vocal) - always glad to see you drop by! Where is the next Noel song???

Hey floyd, ...Where is the next Noel song??? It's nearly done! I'll be posting as soon as I polish up the raggedy edges of the mix. I'd love to be able to be as productive as you are! I'm a snail by comparison Thanks for asking! Noel

Thanks, Joanne.... I think it's mostly attitude - the lyric is a bit snarky, so I added that in...

There is a whole lot of right about this song. Prosody is great and the conversational tone of the lyric and the great word pictures make this song a showpiece for how to write a country song. great job guys.--Pete

Man, I'm slow. It took me forever to comment on this song. There's not really anything left to say - clever write, professional delivery, fun listen. Really, what more could I want from a song?

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."
