Hi all. Had some fun with this great style. (POKEY.STY Pokey Pickin Rockabilly Swing) I put some distortion on the "don't come round" vocal. All comments welcome.Rob
Well don't come over to my house and push me all around. Oh don't come over to my house and look me up and down.
Your wicked words wont break my bones mean not a thing to me. You keep banging on the door to catch a glimpse of me don't come around.

Well don't come over to my house the curtains have been drawn. Oh don't come over to my house now you have been warned.
Your wicked words don't mean a thing not one thing to me. You keep on banging on the door to catch a glimpse of me don't come around.
Bridge
Well don't come over to my house I soon will be gone. Oh don't come over to my house you'll never right your wrongs.
Your wicked words wont break my bones mean not a thing to me. You keep banging on the door to catch a glimpse of me don't come around.

This reminded me of early Violent Femmes as much as Rockabilly. Though the femmes used a big acoustic bass guitar rather than a slap stand up. I really enjoyed the sound and the narrative. the structure was unusual - but that's cool too. Cool stuff Rob.

A cheerful song (in a way), but I thought you always like people in your house. Did that change? (joke) But I liked the way you sang it, the doubles, the radio-voice. Nicely done! I have one tiny point: The instruments were a bit soft in relation to your voice. Especially the piano. But it could be my ears...

Thanks for the encouragement Ray. Also thank for the video I really enjoyed the song. Rob

Hello Hans. You are welcome to come over any time. Thanks for the tip on the volume. Rob
Terrific tune . . . love the vibe, the feel, the whole thing . . . some nice production touches throughout (e.g., the “megaphone-like” backing vocal that chimes in from time to time). Really slick . . . and I love the vocal on this one. Loved it!
Yeah this is different and a great use of this style, loved the vocals.. and this is all fitting neatly/tightly on my monitors going for another listen with the headphones now.
Thanks

Rob, the swing/rockabilly feel in this really works well! Just a really neat tune with your standard excellent vocals! That guitar solo was a great choice! Thanks, Torrey

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."
