Jo, I want to applaud your efforts in defense of those beautiful creatures. As custodians over lesser animals, man(kind) has failed miserably.
I'm not sure what I can do to help but I would be more than willing to contribute a BIAB tune. You know my material, just pick one or none. I know how difficult such things can be, especially between friends.
Donny

I agree with all Tom said (as I so often do).
A terrific title. Nice arrangement. Well sung.
This is a great project to be doing!
floyd
For those who dont know how remarkable Floyd is, I ran the idea of doing a rhino album past him on a Thursday night about two weeks ago. On the Friday morning I woke up and he already had a song for the album that he had written while I was busy sleeping in South Africa. Thank you Floyd for all your support. I really appreciate it.

Hi Joanne.
I love the rhythm which you've created for this track - it got my interest from the first bar.
Great track with some lovely emotive vocals and excellent BVs.
ROG. Rog. Thank you so much. I also like the banjo rhythm. My friend who I am pitching it to plays the banjo so hopefully this will take her fancy. I have to admit that I sometimes just get lucky with the BVs and something just happens that seems to work. I dont seem to be able to recreate it though...

Hi, Jo !
You have such a wonderful voice
not only wonderful but as in this
tune so emotional and effectful !
Let us hope it will help the good
cause !!
Cheers
Dani
PS: I Loved the harmonies very much ! Ah Thank you Dani. You are so sweet! Lets certainly hope we can raise some serious money for this cause. The nice thing about this project is that if we can get all the songs donated AND we can get somebody to do the mastering and artwork pro bono then I have a sponsor for the first batch of physical CDs and I am sure other companies will be willing to sponsor some CDS. So the full retail price of the CDs will go to the Rhinose foundation. Here's hoping!

Nice song Joanne! It's wonderful that you have such a passion for this cause. I am an animal lover myself, although I do eat meat and struggle with the ethics of that at times. In the case of rhinos, it is simply unconscionable. I would like to contribute a song and have been trying to think of an angle that's a little different. Really enjoyed this song but I am puzzled by the Viet Nam reference. Keep posting. Love hearing what you're doing, and thanks so much for supporting me! Take care. Greg Hi Greg. I also eat meat and struggle with the ethics of that. I think we are not alone on that front! I would LOVE you to contribute a song to the album. If you have a look at their website www.rhinose.org or facebook page www.facebook.com/rhinoseday there may be some inspiration there. On the Vietnam reference in the song. I did a bit of research on this and Vietnam has become the biggest market for legal and illegal rhino horn coming from South Africa. The interesting thing is that this demand only really started taking off in 2008 when it was being marketed as "The drink of millionaires" and a cure everything from hangovers to cancer. I think the real danger is if this "myth" takes over in China then that really is the end for the rhino. So Rhinose is making a effort in the campaign to reduce demand. This strategy has worked in the past in other Asian countries. Let me know if I can help with a co-write. There are many interesting angles to this one...

Donny Don, Your support is always so appreciated. Just by spreading the word you are already helping. I think they specifically want songs with lyrics about the rhino but I will bear your kind offer in mind in case they do change direction when push comes to shove and we don't have enough rhino songs to fill the album.

I'm late to the party and everything that I wanted to say already has been said, i.e. great song, great backing tracks and super cause.
All I can add is that I think this is your best to date.
Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

I will give a +1 here. I especially liked the mix of vocals on the chorus and outro.

Just listened.... it will make a great addition to the project.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

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!

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."
