This is my first song post. I used Realstyle BALFRED and tenor sax soloist 937. I can't sing but I wrote this song, like it, and wanted to see it to fruition. So I hired a singer on fiverr. It could use a bridge and I've written one, someday I'll add it. In addition to the usual Soundcloud link, I made a simple slide show video for youtube and that link is here as well. https://soundcloud.com/user-770148857/the-taste-of-her-name-by-tunemongerhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IEe4QQ_zewIAll that she told me was one little word, That which she goes by, is known in this world, That's all I needed, to take her in, savoring the sips, Cause I got the taste, the taste of her name on my lips. I know that she'll have a lot more to say, Next time I see her, maybe today, I could feel voltage pass through our fingertips, Exciting the taste, the taste of her name on my lips. Since the beginning, it's been this way, Man and a woman, sparked from the clay, And I've heard of warriors, launching a thousand ships, All for the taste, the taste of her name on their lips.

BeelzeBob,
A big WOW for this! A pure delight to listen to.
An excellent jazz-ballad write. So well penned...
"Since the beginning, it's been this way,
Man and a woman, sparked from the clay,
And I've heard of warriors, launching a thousand ships,
All for the taste, the taste of her name on their lips."
Killer.
The perfect BAND to carry the tune. Super vocalist that you found!
And an excellent mix to top it all off.
This is one heck of a first post! Welcome to the Showcase!! Really looking forward to hearing more...

Hi Bob ..
Great, great song for first post. My wife and I love this genre/style as much as any. So sweet and exceptionally well arranged and produced. All the technical stuff is stellar, in my opinion.
And wow, what a great vocal Christopher gave you ... excellent. You were fortunate to find him. I have used Fivr a time or two for non-musical stuff and was happy with the results - but this is a GREAT vocal! he gave your words and music a nice life beyond what you's already done.
Excellent! Wishing you the very best ...
Alan

BeelzeBob,
This is smoking . . . very old school and very killer. Impressive first song post—nicely done in all aspects. I actually don’t think you need a bridge with this one, that solo sax serves nicely in lieu thereof. Your vocalist does a terrific job.
Welcome to the BIAB forum! I’ll look forward to hearing more from you!
Kind regards,
Deej

Bob, Very nicely arranged. I believe it came out great. Ripe, delicious fruit  I like lyrical swing & poetry is very strong. Mixed and performed to the standard. Good vocalist! Thank you for posting! Misha.

Thanks to all for the encouragement. For years all I did was blues. I got bored and tried to do some other kinds of tunes, this is one. It's still a I-IV-V, but with jazz chords. I used BIAB to make backing tracks for a blues harmonica educational website for almost ten years. It recently closed down and it was a real bummer for me. So here I am. I play guitar and harmonica, nothing special. I sing if I've written a novelty/funny song, otherwise, I get someone else to do it.
I have a bossa nova influenced tune if anyone wants to sing it. Let me know!

This is right in our wheelhouse as we love blues and jazz.
You and the vocalist did a fine job in capturing a small club feel with a well honed band.
Excellent!

So true to the form, could almost hear the vinyl crackles. Beautiful. That title line is pure gold.

An excellent jazz-ballad write. So well penned...
"Since the beginning, it's been this way,

Absolutely!!! Stellar!! Love this kind of music. I think the vocal could use a little more verb (Sax as well). Killer song!! Take care. Greg

Notation Enhancements in Band-in-a-Box® 2019
Band-in-a-Box® 2019 for Windows was released in December 2018, and included many new features and enhancements - like the enhancements we made to our Notation window!
These include:
-Pressing the space bar plays the song from the current location.
-Double-clicking on the Standard mode Notation window (or on the time line in Editable or Staff Roll mode) plays the song from the current time location.
-The right-click menu in the Editable or Staff Roll mode Notation window has an option to change the current beat resolution. Previously, the only way to do this was to right-click on the time line.
-Clicking close to a stave line will put a note on the stave line instead of between stave lines. Previously, you had to click extremely close to a stave line to insert a note on it.
-In the Notation Windows Options dialog, the clefs split point asterisk indicates that C5* is middle C.
-The clefs split point can be set by the spin controls.
-You can quickly enter forced accidentals from the right-click menu.
-A new track type (Drums) is available for the Melody and Soloist tracks.
-Holding down the Ctrl key and pressing the zoom in/out buttons results in finest possible incremental adjustment in size.
-There's a keystroke entry mode -the "N" mode, which lets you enter a melody entirely using keystrokes. The keystrokes are N to enter a note, up/down cursor to change its pitch, and left/right cursor to move the time line.
-A new button in the Print Options dialog lets you quickly print a "chords only" fake sheet. You can also access this from the right-click menu on the Chord Sheet.
-You can now edit any track in the Event List Editor. When the dialog opens, it will show you the MIDI data in the current notation track.
There's detailed information on our 2019 notation enhancements here: Band-in-a-Box® 2019 New Feature - Notation Enhancements
Jump to the Notation topic in our Band-in-a-Box® 2019 new features video.

Attention Band-in-a-Box® 2019 for Mac users - a new FREE patch update (build 315) is available!
Review details and download here
Summary of changes for build 315 (Nov 15, 2019):
Fixed: Exporting MusicXML files was not working.
Fixed: When using "Auto-Hand split Piano track" feature, exported MIDI files contain wrong note durations on the Piano track.

Fixed: User should be prompted to save their song when exiting, if they had added or removed plugins.

My Favorite Things - Nudge Chords in Band-in-a-Box®
Love this time saving feature.
Ever fill in the chordsheet fully or for part of song, and then discover you want to add or take away an extra beat or more somewhere in the chordsheet.
Nudge chords (melody) from the Edit Menu is your friend here, the dialog will give you all the options either to remove or add beats where its needed.
Love it.
