Thanks Lawrence. Am basking in the praise.
Can't remember how the intro got there but must try it again sometime.
Must use that backing some more also. Cheers.

Hi RnAM. Thanks for checking it out and yes the celtic air RT really captures the feel of the Chathams in the 70's somehow. Cheers.

Very nice production... and well performed.

Excellent on many levels (did Charlie say that, too?)

Richard,

Like everyone else before me, this is a showcase song on so many levels. I wholeheartedly endorse floyd's comments. Definitely a song to be proud of.

Regards,
Noel

Very sad song, and beautifully delivered!! This is my favorite arrangement and delivery of your songs. Your vocals are really coming along. Love the dark minor chord at the end. You are an amazingly colorful writer RichMac! Always enjoy your stuff. Great job!! Take care. Greg

Thanks Greg. I'll never be a singer but do get a lot of satisfaction from making the effort.
Real Band is a bit like a meccano set. I play with it. Put bits together. Cheers.

Wow!, great storytelling! fantastic imagery, I felt I was there.
Instruments sound so good, your voice is the perfect vehicle for this sad tale. I enjoyed this very much.

Again proving perfection is not when there's nothing left to add
but rather when there's nothing to take away.

The leanness of the production really drives the melancholy
lyric home.

Powerful.

Thanks J&B. Have been trying for a while to resist the temptation to keep adding instruments which is so easy to do in RB.
Must try for a light happy song next! Am getting a bit morbid in my old age.
Cheers.

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."
