Likely at night. A bit of the kissin'-the-girls thing... though in a limited manner... Since Brent handles the leads, I'd venture to say that was a Telecaster... This will give you a picture of... UNCOMMON GRACE i'm shootin' pool and having some beers with the guys and my phone rings, i tell 'em that was grace, i gotta go they start whoopin' it up 'bout how i'm wrapped 'round her finger some whipped boy-toy led by the nose fellas, some things are hard to explain grace ain't no ordinary jane a careful collection of contradictions nothing sits right, nothing out of place not even trying, she's the center of attention that little girl grin, that movie star face that's the picture of uncommon grace well that took 'em back a bit they didn't know quite what to say room got kinda quiet as i headed toward the door i hear charlie say "man, she must be something" i say "you never seen the likes of her before" a tornado. a goddess. a full-out addiction. grace simply defies description a t-shirt and pearls, worn tony lama's hears her own drummer, sets her own pace stubborn like her daddy, a beauty like her mama rifle in the window rack just in case that's the picture of uncommon grace she's standing in the hall when i walk through the door that grin on her face, her robe on the floor a quiet storm, giving, demanding temp tattoos beneath tattered lace gives her heart with wild adandon any man would die for just one taste that's the picture of uncommon grace damn good picture of my girlfriend grace i've been graced.

Never thought I'd hear that from you, but doesn't it work well. Man, I just wish I could do that accent. Hey what a picture you've painted here. Sounds like a nice girl. I thought at first you were going for the old joke - he walked into the room with easy grace... Superb track which rocks along nicely. Great vocals and harmony and absolutely no complaints about the solo this time! Good LOUD. Loved the whole thing. ROG. _________________________ Free online guitar lessons.

Loved every bit of this, especially the drum production, for example, the little flourish of a two thump at the very end, and the drums rolls in the middle. How did you do that???? I know they are samples, but what's the technique?

I think it was the perfect touch for this song. I feel it presents it more overtly as a story. Loved it. Edited by Ember - PG Music (07/18/17 02:58 PM) _________________________ Cheers, Ember

Now Al...	hey Floyd, Di and I were wondering why this isn't on the radio ... then it dawned on us - it's too damned good! This sounds professional as anything out there. Great lyric, backing tracks and a splendid vocal performance. If it gets any better than this, we'd have to call it something besides a song. This is a bar of excellence that few, if any of us, will be able to approach. BTW, we liked it!

Anyway, this made me laugh...

Throw a Telecaster in there too and turn it up to 12. Just once I wish DS could spit out what he's trying to say. It's always soooo vague what he's lookin' for I have to admit, when I saw the title this was NOT what I was expecting. I may have been more along the lines of what DS was saying. Anyway, this song is so cool. The semi-spoken part is fun, and that chorus! LOVE IT! It's catchy! Really, really catchy. I would be you walked around with it stuck in your head when you weren't working on it? As far as production, I feel that may have been the tightest I've heard from you. I mean, it LINES up! I felt every instrument fit exactly where it should be. Loved the grove. Love the changed between sections. Just a lot to keep the listener interested! It's not my name, but you had me at "Mr. Snyder" _________________________ C.Aaron Madison I often get asked how to pronounce my name.

I thought that was an excellent idea. Well done. _________________________ You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.com Add nothing that adds nothing to the music.

Uncommon RealTracks Instruments for Band-in-a-Box®

Today is Uncommon Instrument Awareness Day.

Examples of "uncommon instruments" include anything from Spoons to the Wheelharp to the Singing Ringing Tree, and more!
(there's probably more instruments out there that we DON'T know than we DO know)

Although our RealTracks collection doesn't include many 'uncommon instruments', we do offer some pretty unique choices!

On top of the usual varieties we offer for Piano, Guitar, Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet, Bass, Tuba, Trumpet, Trombone, and more - our RealTracks library also offers a nice selection of Shakuhachi and Kalimba - there's even a Koto RealTrack included in Set 212!

Kalimba: RealTracks Set 271
Koto: RealTracks Set 212
Shakuhachi: RealTracks Sets 193 & 212

What's the most surprising RealTrack Instrument that you've come across?

Band-in-a-Box® 2019 Mac Update Ready!

Just because Band-in-a-Box® 2020 for Mac is here doesn't mean we've forgotten our 2019 users!

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!
