@BabuMusic - This is just great. The mixing and balance of the instruments is very pleasing to the ear. Great voice for blues too. I really like that twangin' guitar in there. Thank you, Ed. This software really makes it so much fun to put together a band. Marty,
my favourite lines:
I'll give up drinkin' and make you my drug.
I'm tired of sleeping on this filthy rug.
Robert Thank you, Robert. And, since you mentioned "filthy" instead of "dirty", you made it all the way to the end. Thanks, man. Hey Marty ...
doing a little side-to-side chair dancing as I listen. Uh ... it ain't a pretty sight!
Wishing you the best. Be safe ...
Alan Ah, Alan, it would be a very uplifting sight to me. Thank you. Stay well.

You know Blues!
Sounds a little country a little blues.
Enjoyed that.
Thanks, Captain. Marty, I love the fact that you threw caution to the wind and wrote new lyrics even though I didn't hear the first ones! These work for sure! You've got a great feel for blues for sure! Enjoyed it all the way! Take care, Torrey Thanks, Torrey. You, too! Your vocal performance sounds like the authentic experience.
I enjoyed listening to this one! Thanks, Ezekiel! Nice blues number. Good production. Bass well played. Thank you, jptjptjpt. Great groove! Great concept! Great voice! Great delivery! Isn't that what a great song is? The answer is a resounding YES!
I really enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing it.
-Caaron Thanks for the great comment, Caaron. I gotta say I really like your HearToLearn and your signature.

Marty,
This is great! Your skills in both performance and productions are stellar. Bass glues things really well. Vocals have a very "live" feel, not over processed, yet sit very comfortably in the mix. Quality stuff! Enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing.
Misha.

Marty, not only do you know the blues you can sing the hell out them!
I have huge blues collection, both vinyl and CD, and if I had heard this in a record store I would have bought it right then and there.
This is absolutely some of the best blues I have heard.
Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Hey Marty,
I nearly missed this song of your Blues feelings! I think to busy avoiding Covid attacks overhere (or making songs from poems).
And man, I think you know Blues, that's for sure! I wanted to write I liked the solopart with the leadguitar, or the story, but it turns out I liked everything in this song. Well... maybe your voice can be more raw. No, I'm kidding.
But I was also thinking you have no studio now and live in a misserable situation. If I had to live like that, Marty, see what blues I would make then! ;-)
Hans

Hi Marty,
Those who know me here know I love the blues and this is just my kind of thing.
A great relaxed blues backing with an excellent solo, all wrapped up in a perfect mix.
But the best bit for me is your fabulous vocal delivery. Shades of Joe Cocker in there, of
whom Ray Charles once said - "He's the only white man I know who can sing the Blues."
More please...
ROG.

This is absolutely some of the best blues I have heard. Wow, Over-the-top, Mario. I usually only play bass because I can't sing and play simultaneously. It's like I use my vocal chords (sorta) when I play, and use my fingers (sorta) when I sing. With your encouragement, maybe I should grab the mic more often. But then who would play bass? Thanks again, man. Hey Marty,

Hans Haha. Thank you, Hans! Dodging those covid bullets is a worldwide endeavor. Keep your shields up, brother.

ROG. Wow, ROG. Thanks you, fellow bluesman. That Joe Cocker reference blew me away, and I agree with Ray (almost). I always thought Joe sang like a bass player playing air bass.

It's no secret we love the blues and we love this! You've got the soulful voice for the genre...you either get it or you don't in our opinion when it comes to the blues. Not a lot of middle ground  Nice blues write and production and very well done RT solos. And you have some great bass chops to go with that vocal! Enjoyed the audio and video. J&B

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."
