I think this is my favorite of all your songs I've listened to. The simplicity of the backing tracks was just what this needed. Your vocal was spot on. That was a real sweet listen! I enjoyed my listen very much.

Well done. _________________________ Cheers rayc "What's so funny about peace, love & understanding?" - N.Lowe Pop on over to The Recording Rebels for positive, honest commentary, critiques and support. https://therecordingrebels.com

Sometimes less really is more, and for me this is a shining example. It is gorgeous, and flows extremely well. You can really feel the emotion here. You should be proud of this one - thanks for sharing _________________________ Cheers, Deryk

One of those nothing left to add nothing left to take away mixes that we like. Just what the nice write and vocal performance needed to "speak." Well done!!

The steel is nice (but there are a few notes that seem to cut off real fast (not a typical thing for a steel to do). A good listen. It has "heart". fj _________________________ 150+ Songs produced using BIAB RealTracks And 50 more... and some more...

The vocal is sweet and heartfelt! I loved Crazy Heart myself (huge Jeff Bridges fan!). This captures the style of his character. Love the music and lyrics of this part: MAYBE OUT THERE IS SOMEOME AINT GOT TO MANY MAYBES LEFT MAYBE ILL FIND THAT ONE THROW OFF THESE CHANS OF REGRET Beautiful!!! Take care. Greg

Nice straightforward backing, strong vocal, all nicely put together. I think I might want the vocal to come forward just a tad, at least in spots, but regardless this sounds great to me. Super job! Kind regards, Deej

The vocal seemed a bit low to me - some of the words seemed hard to make out. On the other hand, subdued vocal really fit the feel of the song. _________________________ -- David Cuny My virtual singer development blog Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it.

Band-in-a-Box® - Boxing Clever - Sound on Sound #TBT

Did you know that Band-in-a-Box® is more than 30 years old? I stumbled across this 1990 magazine article explaining the relatively new program, and think it's an enjoyable read for any Band-in-a-Box user - it really shows that we are always listening to user feedback when developing our program!

Read the article: Boxing Clever: Band-In-A-Box Software

A few of my favorite statements:

"The intention of PG Music's Band-In-A-Box package is to couple that speed and convenience with the improved flexibility of the personal computer. Versions are available for the Atari ST, Mac, and PC compatibles. Have the programmers succeeded? And can they rid themselves of the stigma of the auto-accompaniment section? Given the above state of affairs, the first hurdle that the program has to overcome is one of acceptance and, frankly, a name like 'Band-In-A-Box' is a bad start."

(I think our name was a great start!)

"The final results are, to say the least, impressive. Band-In-A-Box achieves something that most hardwired auto-accompaniment sections have never been able to do - inject a degree of feel into the music. It really does sound more human than so many of the computer generated pieces I've heard."

"...I'm quite convinced that PG Music will have a winner on their hands. This is one piece of software that you can get more out of than you put in."
