Just finished this Covid 19 inspired tune in the style of B.B. King / Chicago blues. Be well!

Authentic Chicago Blues. Good number. Really loved that electric guitar and harp.

HI Tom ...

Nice to "meet" you! This is the first of your songs that I've heard. Sure am glad I did! Nothing like a good walking 4/4 Blues number. And this is a really good one. Nice lyric and excellent guitar playing. You put together some real nice backing tracks for this one. The tone of your guitar is perfect ... has a 335 or 355 feel. I've had two 335s but never a 355.

Nice job on the harmonica, too. This is a real sweet listen. Thanks for the great entertainment!

Best to you and be safe ...

Alan

Thank you Al David. I am so glad you enjoyed the tune. I had a blast creating / performing / mixing it.

I have many high end guitars but tI always wanted at 335. The prices are ridiculous and Gibsons reputation has been tarnished in recent years. So I found an alternative made by Ibanez that is a wonderful semi-hollow body guitar called the Artstar 153 AYS. Its a fine instrument. I am glad I discovered it and it was just right for this song.

Tom ...

I've not had a chance to play an AS153, but yours sounds great. For my jazz numbers, I use a Stromberg Monterey semi-hollow body. I'm pretty happy with it. I don't do a lot of my own lead work any more because of a medical condition that affects the control of myhands and fingers (Focal Dystonia). I usually use a BIAB RT. But, for what it's worth, here's a link where you can here the Monterey, if you're interested.

I enjoyed this - the tone of the guitar is awesome, and it flows tremendously well. The harp fix snug in the mix as well.

Nice work - thanks for sharing smile

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!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

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."
