Hi Bob,

What a great arrangement! I really liked listening to how you sweetened the mix with musical flavours... it's something that I don't do enough of in my mixes.

I enjoyed the write, your performance, and the production too. Everything worked for me. You managed to create a sense of nostalgia and memories of 'what used to be' in my mind. It was a pleasant journey.

All the best,
Noel

Bob,
Dreamy with rhythm. Very cool images in the lyrics and a perfect arrangement - you left lots of space between the pedal steel embellishments.
I could just loop this and watch a moonrise!

We think Noel described this perfectly. Great job, Bob!

The Atmospheric Pedal Steel was just so danged cool. And as kenny mentioned, the bass line was terrific - sort of a modified "Under The Boardwalk" feel to it. All your backing tracks were spot on. Everything in its place and added exactly what was needed. Thanks for a great listen.

Hi Bob.

This is simply inspired.

I just loved EVERYTHING about this song.

The lyrics a little bit mystical, the backing simple but varied, the perfect vocal delivery, just EVERYTHING.

Going back for another listen right now.

Cheers, ROG.

Really pretty loved the build up and very melodic.
A very nice song with an inspired use of the pedal steel.

Bob, I've heard a lot of great material from you on the forum, but I think this is my favorite one from you! This has such a great feel to it and that pedal steel makes this song really shine. Thanks, Torrey

Gorgeous!, Bob...

As always, your lyrics make one stand up and take notice...

The production on this is killer. Great RT choices. The acoustic strum is excellent. The bass good enough to carry the song alone. The steel is exquisite. The drums... truly "POP!" - Super well done!!! And a great mix.

A great listen. One of your all-time best!

Hey Bob,

You always have such great lines, and such an inimitable vibe that is all your own.

However, this one does remind me an awful lot of one of my favorite bands of all time--Television. I may have may that comparison before, and I mean it as a high compliment!!!

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."
