THanks so much Tom! Yeah, I love the feel of the solo trumpet. That was what got me going on this idea...when I heard that trumpet in Al David's tune. THanks again! Take care. Greg

Hi Greg,

Cheers,

Stefan

That paints a picture in the listener's mind. I could see this in a movie soundtrack.

So many good things about this from the smooth jazz to the melody to the lyrics to the production. It's all top bar stuff.

Simply marvelous! Such a beautiful song and holy smoke - that vocal. The velvet of your voice beautifully spreads itself over the lyric and hovers magically over the perfect combination of backing tracks. I wish I knew all the right superlatives that apply. Regardless, this is just so good and pro all the way. Love the trumpet outro. You are one of the best friends music has.

Wishing you the very best.

Thanks so much for those incredibly kind words Alan! You are a great composer/arranger/musician! I always find your music inspiring! Take care. Greg

Greg,

Great tune—very atmospheric, very tangible—you feel the darkness and the chill; it drips with loneliness. Love the melody in that chorus, and you just nail the vocals. Excellent stuff, wonderfully written and put together. That sax is sweet!

All the best,

Deej

Greg,

Very nice soulful jazz song!
Stunning performance!
Trumpet is very effective.
The melody and the chord progression are splendid.
It reminds me of "Cry me a river", "Sunny" and so on.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Wow Greg, what a fabulous song and performance! Stunning production, utterly professional in every respect. Reminds me of George Michael's big reverb-washed jazzy ballads. You have a similar voice timbre and 'yearning' delivery.
Are these BIAB RealTracks, live band or bit of both?
cool

Best

Really well done - thanks for sharing!

You have a feel for this jazzier style- so relaxed and a bit of smoke in your voice.
Al does write some very good instrumentals that invite lyrics... your inspiration has resulted in a fine song.

Robert


Thanks much Robert! Listened to your new one today.....very good stuff!! Take care. Greg

Love that line from you, I think it's the same for most all of us.

It makes me appreciate this group all the more.

Super arrangement, beautiful sound

Your voice works so well on a smokey ballad like this (and what a voice!)

like early Sting (post Police) he could a song this good now-a-days

excellent!

Kenny


Thanks so much Kenny! Really glad you're posting again! Take care. Greg

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."

Our Customer Service hours this weekend are:

Friday, March 29: 8-4
