Mike, thanks for listening and commenting. Man I love my studio musicians. What can I say? They are the best.

Thanks

Tangmo I agree with Jim. Those are stand-out lines in an outstanding song. I really enjoyed listening to this. It just bounced on into my soul. Still "playing" in my head as I type. Vocals and guitars are beautiful. Well-built production too.

Man, this is good! Love the guitar work, excellent! Lyrics are very well thought out and expressed. Vocals are great, and love the background vocals.

Great collab! Nothing not to like here.

Misha, Scott, Tangmo, and Steve.... thanks guys for the kind words and we're so glad people are liking this song and finding all sorts of gems in it that grab them and keep them interested. This was a labor of love for both David and myself as we worked on this and debated the details.... what to leave in and what to leave out, as Bob Seger said in one of his tunes. Thanks for listening and taking the time to express your comments to us.

This is a pro song, all the way. It's hard to pick any particular part out (although the guitar solos were standout) because all of it's at the level of excellence - writing, production, singing and playing.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Herb and David, this is a great sounding country rock tune! Great job on the vocals! You can't go wrong when David has input on a song (speaking from experience) ! Loved that twin lead solo! Thanks, Torrey

Wow - you guys did some really good work on this! A really well thought out tune, both lyrically and instrumentally. It really packs a punch, and that chorus is delightfully catchy as well.

A solid write all the way around - you guys should be proud! Thanks for sharing smile

Very nice song! I enjoyed listening. Thanks for sharing.

I don't know if you want to publish it, but it is probably produced a bit to loud (volume wise) for places like Spotify and YouTube.

Nice collaboration. Very catchy chorus, good lyric and some excellent guitar playing.

Very enjoyable.

Yeah... thanks for listening.... Here recently there have been a number of Eagles concert videos on the tube... and my wife and I both love the Eagles... so this song got a bit of influence from those guys. We sure enjoyed working on this and David really didn't have much of an idea as to what the final version would sound like as we were working on it together.

Thank you all for listening and commenting. Dave and I appreciate the kind words.

Hey you two, dunno if y'all were intentionally shooting for that Byrds/Eagles/Pederson/Hillman sound or not but it is certainly there.

And in our book that's a good thing!

"The clock, turns so slowly, but the years flew by so fast
Trying to find someone to love, but it never seemed to last"

I like that juxtaposing how at the moment things can seem so slow but in retrospect it flew by quickly.

Nice production, guitar/vocal performance and band. Guitar solo gave us a bit of a Don Felder feel contributing even more to the Laurel Canyon feel.

Good one for sure!

Yes, definitely has an early Eagles feel to it. Sometimes hard to believe that was almost 50 years ago.

It's great to see and hear all the comments coming in on this song. Thanks for listening.

I apologize for such a short reply with so many responses in one post. I might be gone for a few days and wanted to get everyone in and responded to before I leave. Just found out my sister is in the ICU and is unconscious. They have her in an induced coma after being admitted and attempts to wake her this morning failed 2x. She passed out a few days ago after calling 911 and was not breathing when medics arrived. How long she was with O2 is the question no one knows. Keep us in your prayers and I'll see you soon.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first?

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."
