Back To Carolina

Going back to Carolina to a little place that I know
If you're running from the Devil that's the place you oughta go
Nobody's looking for you when you're living at the end of the road

Got to get out of Chicago big city’s mean and cold
You'll get a pocketful of dollars if you're willin to sell your soul
Nobody's looking for you when you're living at the end of the road

Hell hounds howlin and the night is black as coal
Tired of all this running its feeling like a heavy load
Nobody's looking for you when you're living at the end of the road

Tom,

This is great! Off the charts in ever way - love the guitar. I can hear Levon Helm singing this one.

Excellent!

Tom,

Love your guitar and the kick-[*****] feel of this... and the lyrics are pretty cool too:

If you're running from the Devil that's the place you oughta go
Nobody's looking for you when you're living at the end of the road

Nice way to end the year!

Tom,

This is a very solid rocker.
The intro is one of the best I've heard on this forum so far.

This is cool... it reminds me of Savoy Brown Louisiana Blues but more modern.


Enjoyed it.

Tom,

A cool intro, indeed. It's the added touches that set songs apart...

A good blues-rock write. And a great set of RTs to pull it off. (those drums are perfect).

Your guitar work is excellent - again, adding the extra icing...

A classic sound. terrific vocal. excellent mix - crisp!

Super cool. Looking forward to what you do in '17!

Yeah, Smoking track! Great hearing you cut loose on the guitar.

Reminds me of that Freddy King tune "Going Down", similar riff.

Loved everything about this, enjoyed the listen!

Wish I could! But, listening to it at a "desk volume" still sounds amazing (...and doesn't distract the PG Team workin' hard at their desks!)

Robert, Thanks for mentioning the lyrics. They just sorta rolled out. Mostly it turned out to be a guitar jam. Happy New Year. Tom

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."

Our Customer Service hours this weekend are:
