Hi all this is my first write for the year. Wanted to write a tune called the funky chicken and here is the result. All comments welcome. Rob The Funky Chicken I was up late last night commotion I was hearing. Was no hare nor a grizzly bear or army on a mission. It was a sight in the middle of the night just outside the kitchen It was my wife all dressed in white doing the funky chicken. She hoped two feet in to the air one sock one missing. She flapped her arms and scratched the ground she sure made a vision. It aint fare but she don’t care don’t mention finger licken. It was my wife all dressed in white doing the funky chicken. .................................................................................................. Well I don’t care what people say or what’s their point of view. If you think I'm crazy then maybe you are too. So come and join me on the conga line lose your Inhibition you'll be fine. .................................................................................................. Its do or dare don’t have that flare when wanting recognition. When they won’t do want you want them to, then clarify your position. When it aint right no need to fight just wait for intermission You’re up tight in the middle of the night doing the funky chicken. I was up late last night commotion I was hearing.

"Robert4580": LOL !!! "...If you think I'm crazy then maybe you are too..." Oh, brother, is that ever priceless! Why, this little ditty is so dang irresistible that I'd scatter my feathers all up and down that hoppin' "conga line" for a chance to hoof this one up with any female funky enough to do the "funky chicken" with me !!! Pure fun at 45 rpm, it surely is. LOREN

All I can add to what already has been said is this is absolutely fantastic
Two thumbs up for creativity, two more for originality, and another two for performance.
You put a vision in my head that will be hard to get rid of!
Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up. Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Rob,
That's a great sound... very professional to my ears. I have to compliment you on the arrangement, too. It's excellent. And you top it off with a fantastic presentation!
A terrific listen.
All the best, Noel

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."
