I like that you change to minor key in the chorus part.
But you return to the major key again soon.
As for me I wanted you to continue the minor key a little longer.
But that is merely my taste, please do not mind.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Hello Shigeki. When I used the minor chord I couldn't find another minor chord to go along with it so I changed back to a major chord as you mentioned. Thank you for your great comment.Rob

All together a very professional sounding tune - thanks for sharing smile

Very cool tune.

This immediately hit me as having a Blue Bayou kind of groove. Roy Orbison as David said, is dead on. This also is right in the same vein as The Mavericks. Easily one of my favorite bands that never really got the acclaim they deserved.

Yep... nice work

This may be may favorite performance and mix of yours, Rob. Really, really good.


Roy was immediately what I thought!! Even some of the unusual chord changes and the rhythmic groove are very "Roy". This is really cool, and vocals are wonderful!! Take care. Greg

Rob,
I listened to the intro a few times.I don't mind the guitar starting the song over one the side at all, when the 2nd one comes in it doesn't seem to quite match it for tone but that's OK because the bass & drums come in pretty quickly to fill the space.
I reckon you could duplicate the strings and put a set on the other side with a slight change to time, (a delay of a milisecond or three would be enough), or tone to get a BIG O effect. As they are the higher violin sounds closer to a pedal steel. I guess that's the difference between a string quartet and a clutch of violins. Alternately you could use an Automatic Double Tracking plug like https://www.kvraudio.com/product/adt_by_vacuumsound to do it for you. It takes a little fiddling to get the thing right but it's easier than actually double tracking.
The solo is excellent but ends a bar short. You could copy & paste the last note and extend it so it plays out or generate a tag part and import that to fill the empty bar.


Cheers

Wow Rob,

If ever there was anybody else here on the forum, trying to create an evergreen.
I forgot, because you are clearly the master at that.
Very cool sound!

Late to the party and all's been said.

This reminds us of one of Janice's favorite singers -- Raul Malo

Terrific vocal and a nice production to show it off!

Enjoyed it!

Sounds really good Rob! I agree with David that it's in the Roy Orbison style! That minor chord change you put in makes the song much more appealing to me! Thanks, Torrey

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

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."
