Outstanding all around. Great vocal, perfect for this genre. Coulda been a hit back in the day. Still has a discerning audience today.

Hello, Greg. Yep, same here. Stuff happens. Lot's of good music being produced by these talented BIAB gurus though. That's for sure.

Hey, this is an excellent song with a first-rate arrangement. I listened to this the other day in the car and I was immediately struck by how good it translated/sounded. A professional mix and master. Curious as to the chain. Any outboard gear?

As others have said, lush, crisp, gorgeous, well done guys! Truly.

Standing ovation!!! Blooming etc. - wow, wow, wow. This is Sinatra-like, but dare I say I prefer your warm tone even to his? This is stunning, stunning, stunning.

The lyrics are so beautifully bittersweet ... one of these days I will write something half this good and dance with joy at the achievement! Bravo to everyone who contributed to this gem.

Greg & Eddie ...

Such a classy and well-written song. The melody oozes Gershwin and the vocal style has Sinatra dripping from it. As others have said, the sound of a true classic. Eddy ... great song concept! Greg ...a wonderful arrangement and a vocal so warm and captivating!

My kind of music for listening at any time. This is a true musical treat. Wishing you both the very best ...

You guys nailed it - thanks for sharing!

Greg,

Really nice jazz vocal song!
The melody is very beautiful.
The lyrics are also beautiful.
And above all your vocals are great.
It looks like I'm listening to Chet Baker.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

very nice music and inspired writing

Greg, you are downright Gershwin like.

Wow!


Thanks Kenny! There are few greater compliments than being compared to Gershwin. Your words mean a lot to me! Take care. Greg

Greg, I am absolutely blown away by this one! I like EVERYTHING about it. The backing is spot on. But your vocals are just perfect for this one!

This is one of my favorite songs I have heard posted on this site!

WELL DONE!

The backing tracks are perfect. Your vocal is exceptional - one of your best (among so many good ones). Well sung, well recorded, well mixed.

This is a delight to listen to. An instant classic.

Nice, smooth and classy. Reminds me of the great singers back in the day who sang in clubs. Very expressive and contemplative. Also love the concept of passing love and winter leaves. Nice collab.

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."
