This reminds me of something the Moody Blues might have done. Really trippy. Great poetic lyrics and really puts the listener in the communal house. Fantastic backing track with very unique chord changes. What a great listen and unlike anything ever posted here. I quite enjoyed it, Tom Tom, Thanks for your listen and comments.I had a few days of going back to that time and this song as well as Blue Medicine came from the remembering. Robert Very nice. You brought back some very interesting memories from my youth. Well done. Super vocal and harmonies,. Just loved the backtrack , Some very cool sounds there. Another awesome lyric. Well done Thank you, Scott!

All it's missing is a sitar. Just kidding! This is great Robert! The lyrics and music really capture the vibe of the hippie house.

Great job Robert! You ALWAYS inspire me to be a better lyricist (You are great at this). The song is another good one with some clever twists and turns! Thanks, Torrey Torrey, I like that about this forum; you know someone is listening and getting inspired - as I am every day by the real musicians like yourself posting here Many thanks for your kind review! Robert Hello, Robert
ElectroFlutes is very effective. It has become a wonderful seasoning for folk style melodies. I always admire because you creates a magical sound every time. Your vocal is very comfortable as usual. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi Hi Shigeki, Those electro flutes have a unique sound - this was a good place to try them. I`m happy you heard some magic in this song! Robert

Wow! That was retro, without sounding derivative. Nice write. Thanks David! All it's missing is a sitar. Just kidding! This is great Robert! The lyrics and music really capture the vibe of the hippie house. Josie, I`ll add the sitar as soon as there`s an RT...or someone offers to play one for me. I`m glad the vibe came through! Robert

Takes me (Bud) back to my almost obligatory trip to San Francisco in 1968...a bit late for the summer of love but close enough If only the lyrical quality of the tunes of that day had been this good. Outstanding with the write and vocal and production to present it all in such a wonderful, shall I say trippy, package! Much enjoyed it! J&B

J&B Bud, The Ritz had a very West Coast woodsy vibe -perched in a forested cove with those window eyes being visible from boat traffic.By the time I got to Haight Ashbury many of the houses you saw in `68 had been given an upscale makeover. I had fun trying for a period sound on this song- thanks for listening and giving it your thumbs up! Robert

Robert, This is an outstanding listen. I found it very emotive in music, words and performance. So many memories came flooding back into my mind as I tagged along on the music's journey. I loved these lines and the way you used them to bookend the lyrics. - floor is tilting
roof is rising windows are watching
The first two lines set up the third line beautifully. I was hooked after these. Then, in the chorus when you say... - you can`t get lost can`t get lost
if you come from nowhere
... you made me think about existentialism. Wow! But the above are just some of the incredibly inventive lyrics you've written. These words are a literary feast. I'll think I'll go and have a drink of abracadabra now! This is a sensational creation! All the best, Noel

Noel,
I appreciate your listen and positive comments. Those Brits were quite the chemists...abracadabra recipe calling for expresso blended with some powerful oils!

Very well thought out lyrics. Very profound lyrics and thoughtful melody nicely paired. The somewhat simple accompaniment works well. I really like the dreamy harmonies. Nice song.

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."
