Here is a little piece I started a few years ago and never completed. It is for Tenor Sax lead. It includes: RealTracks-Drums, Piano and Bass GPO3 Strings and me on Tenor Sax The piece reminds me of a Film Noir sound track or at least a 1950's gumshoe movie. (You know "It was a dark and rainy night...then she walked in" type of movie.) I hope you enjoy it at least half as much as I enjoyed recording it. https://soundcloud.com/richrayer/noir-timesp.s. I would make the url link fancy if I could figure it out in this forums setup but clicking on the "Create a link to a webpage" doesn't seem to do what I expect it to do. Anyways...Enjoy!  RichR

"Nothin' a little bourbon and soda wouldn't fix"---That's a line from Woody Allen's Bogart parody PLAY IT AGAIN SAM. This tune put me in the Bogie mood. Really well done!! Great melody, and the sax playing was superb to my ears. Nice one!! Take care. Greg

Rich, very nicely done.
Your description as a film score fits exactly as I imagined too.
Enjoyed the listen.

You put a mighty fine ensemble together for your sax to play over. Enjoyed this from start to finish.

Thanks all for the nice comments. It was fun to do and I just wish that kind of inspiration happened more than less of the time.

On top of the usual varieties we offer for Piano, Guitar, Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet, Bass, Tuba, Trumpet, Trombone, and more - our RealTracks library also offers a nice selection of Shakuhachi and Kalimba - there's even a Koto RealTrack included in Set 212!
Kalimba: RealTracks Set 271

Review - Loops-with-Style PAK 2 for Band-in-a-Box® 2020
"Dr. Dave" Walker is at it again! You may remember his recent reviews of both Band-in-a-Box 2020 for Mac and Xtra Styles PAK 9 - now he has something to say about our Loops-with-Style PAK 2 - check it out: Click here to read...
With money being tight for most musicians, this is a wonderful gift for those on a limited budget. At $29, it offers months and years of fun and experimentation, bringing many ideas to fruition as songs with enough variation so that your audience doesn’t jump to "aw, that's a computer!" while still keeping the power of the software in your hands.
-"Dr. Dave" Walker
Thank you again Dr. Dave for the great review!
