I guess this is the "alt take" as I'm going with my guide vocal because I think it was more Dylanish than Leon's take. I tried to be on the right side of parody - hope it works. Leon - lyrics and backing vocal. I sang, played rhythm, and lead gtr & harmonica.

I dig Leon's vocals of course but you have something special happening too. Man, great lyrics! Love the harp and guitar work too. Enjoyed! Dave Blue Attitude Website Blue Attitude YouTube channel

Throughout. The production works well. Sort of "defines an era". This sounds like a lost track from The Band. The vocal is nice! The ending harp is terrific - perfect ending... Y'all always deliver. fj 150+ Songs produced using BIAB RealTracks And 50 more... and some more...

This is the first time I`ve heard you lead the vocal, Peter and I like your twang- sure its Dylanesque, but its still all yours! The rollicking backing is just right for the song - which is catchy as well as smart. Cool, very cool. Robert Last edited by Robertkc; 10/15/18 01:37 PM.

As Robert so well stated, "Leon does that wry observation thing as well as anyone I can think of" And, you nailed that Dylanesque vocal feel. Something we should hear more of! Nice guitar, write, vocals, harp...nice everything. Well done y'all!!! J&B J&B Videos J&B Soundcloud J&B Website

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.
