I just finished a new jazz tune inspired by jazz guitarist Kenny Burrell, called "Kenny's Blues". Ive had a gas exploring the jazz music realm for this piece.

Great place to find inspiration, Tom, and an inspirational result. Kenny Burrell is a favorite.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Hi lasvideo,

this is something to lean back, close your eyes and listen quite concentratedly. Very impressive and an enormously pleasant listen!

Stay healthy,

Stefan

Very impressive! This is something I would expect to find on a good jazz album. I'm not familiar with Kenny Burrell, but I'm going to check him out. Meanwhile, I'm hearing some Dave Brubeck vibes in there, with some of those chord progressions, and the chord and rhythm patterns. Super easy listen all the way to the end - wanted it to go on forever, or at least to the next track if this was part of an album.

Hi Tom ...

i thought for sure I'd commented on this. Obviously not! That's what happens when you get old ... just turned 73. Yikes!

This is so well conceived and delivered. Excellent sound and flawless playing. I really enjoyed it! Congrats on a job well done!

Wishing you the best. Be safe ...

Alan

Hello Tom,

It felt as if the leadguitar was playing in a chair next to me, the double bass a bit behind and the piano in a corner of the room. So very close. That was a nice feeling. A rolled back my chair, closed my eyes and enjoyed listening to it all. A pity it ended...
So, to me you did a very good job!

Thanks,
Hans

This is a nicely understated swinging piece of smooth jazz. You've that late-night Kenny Burrell sound down pat.
Look forward to hearing more from you.
Cheers,
Mike

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.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

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."
