Here is the sixth weekly release for my 52 Tracks Project: Coming Out of Memphis in the Spring. http://52tracksblog.com/2016/02/11/track-6-coming-out-of-memphis-in-the-spring/I used the CSWNGMP style, from which I selected the 540 Swing Electric Bass (165), Nashville Swing 8 Drums, and the 976 Clean Electric Guitar Rhyhm Swing Guitar. I dug out my Telecaster and played rhythm and took the solo. I raised the tempo from the styles 140 bpm to 170 bpm. Thanks for listening.

Great guitar sound and vocals. I really like the song a lot, and to me the guitar work and vocals really shine through on this one. Great job.

Good guitar sound Fred and your lyrics tell an interesting story. I like your voice and you did a good job with the RTs.

Fred
Another really nice song in this series. The guitar solo on my system was really low in the mix. Everything else sounds good.

Thanks, Peter. I will note the lead guitar level for possible remixing down the line.

Fred,
A solid write. Interesting all the way through.
The production is nice. Simple, but plenty to carry the song. Nice job on the solo - the clean tone works well.
I really wanted there to be some harmonies on the two ending lines every time it came around.
Good mix. Enjoyed it.

Thanks, Floyd. I agree a harmony vocal would add a lot. On my to-do list!

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!
