John Lennon's "Imagine" is beautiful but her rendering of "Rainbow" tends to showcase her fabulous guitar work.

She gave me permission to share with my PG Music friends.

Robert,

Nina was the guitarist for the late Kate Wolf (qv) for 14 years until Kate's death of leukemia. In Kate's short life she had written and recorded well over 200 songs that have been covered by recording artists in many genres.

Search "Kate Wolf" on YouTube for much more of Nina's awesome guitar work.

This will get you started as a "Kate/Nina" fan.

Lambda,

Another great artist to explore is Isla Grant (qv), A Scot/Irish Country singer who has 11 gold and 3 platinum albums to her credit. She has such a beautiful voice.

Isla has chosen one of my BIAB tunes, "Isla's Waltz" that her band plays during audience transitions during her worldwide concerts. It does not appear in her set-list.

Let me know what you think of Isla. Again, she is a very prolific writer and wrote most of the songs in this playlist.

Enjoy!

Deryk,

I'll be chatting with Nina later today and I will be sure to pass along your complements.

One of the albums feature countless artists (19) covering Kate Wolf's music. It is just wonderful. The album title is: "Memories Left Behind" probably available from most online sources.

PS: Nina looks like a wee snip of a lassie in the pictures with Kate.

I didn't intend to neglect the beautiful vocals. It's sung by Chris Webber of Sabbastapol, California. She and Nina have an album out called "Duo".

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.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

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."
