I Didn't Love Her No HowA repost of a song Di and I wrote this back in 2012. It's a Chicago style Blues. Comments and suggestions always appreciated. Thanks in advance. Please be safe. I never did upload this one to Soundcloud, so this is a low bit-rate MP3, Maybe one day I'll quit being lazy and post it on Soundclick as a wave. File:Al - I Didn't Love Her No How - 2.MGU Key=G , Tempo 106, Length (m:s)=3:28 Song is saved with Volume, Pan, Reverb, Chorus, Bank0, Song is saved with bar changes for Volume Changes, Style is _ROADHSE.STY (Fast Even 8ths Blues (120 RS)) RealTracks in style: ~~572:Bass, Electric, Blues BB Ev 085 RealTracks in style: ~~577:Guitar, Resophonic, Rhythm Blues Crossroads Ev 085 RealTracks in style: 580:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm Blues Roadhouse Ev 120 RealTracks in song: 1543:Synth Pad, PopBelieve Ev16 065 RealTracks in song: ~~576:Guitar, Electric, Soloist Blues BB Ev 085 RealTracks in song: 1534:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm PopPowerPush8ths Ev 120 RealDrums in Song: RockBritDrivingEv16^1-a:Snare, HiHat , b:Snare, Ride I Didn't Love Her No How (v1) I left her standing in a steady rain A tainted woman crazy and insane That's the last time I ever saw that gal I didn't need her, I didn't love her no how (v2) No good at cooking, she wouldn't even clean Not only that, she was down right brutal mean She'd scare the devil, force him to stoop and bow Thank God she's gone, I didn't love her no how CHORUS Nasty temper, bad attitude Didn't want her then, don't want her now She was an evil voodoo vixen I didn't love her no how (v3) I tolerated all her selfish ways For two long years and twenty-seven days She was a heartache in a low-cut blouse Good riddance trouble, I didn't love her no how (v4) I got my freedom, got no regrets Ain't paying nothing but my self-inflicted debts I hear she's looking, for a new cash cow But that's her problem, I didn't love her no how REPEAT CHORUS X2 (c) 2012 Alan D.

"For two long years and twenty-seven days" Just great.
The band sounds great. That lead is inspired. Just the right edge to the vocals. Everything sits well with me, including how your narrator is at least trying to master apathy. Twenty-seven years and two days, he'll have it licked.

Sounds great to me, Alan, I love this type of blues.
Good lyrics, well above the norm for a blues write, and your vocal really suits the material too.
Yeah! Enjoyed.

Alan,
A good Blues song. Good tracks. Catchy.
The vocal is a little "too up front" I think (just a bit)... but I understand that this has been "in the can" for a while... well sung...
Listened through a few times (I don't get why Soundclick doesn't include a volume control with their player)
Nice.

Hi Alan,
A really catchy song with a funny story! And you sang it very well. I liked those endings of each verse and chorus.
Beside that the leadguitar was beautiful!
I wanted to 'like' the song on your SC-page, but that ended in me having an account on it now and you still have no 'like'.
When I tried it again, the whole page was gone. I hope I haven't destroyed it...
Still stay safe Alan! And Di as well,
Hans

Alan & Di, Nice teamwork! Cool and unusual chorus swing. Composition wise, you rock (or you bluez in this case)! "I got my freedom, got no regrets Ain't paying nothing but my self-inflicted debts"  Would be interesting to hear it in HD. Enjoyed it! Thank you for sharing. Misha.

Loved this Alan. Very cool delivery on this tune. I just amazed me how many ways there are to play the blues. Loved the vocal and your guitar work as sooo good. Very cool phrasing and licks. Well done

Very nice (worse than devil) evil woman story, good vocals and great sounding band, I surely like the Abracadabra chord.

Al,
A very well crafted lyric ( hard to find original lyrics for the genre- yours had me listening close and smiling!).
Sounds good as is ( especially that guitar lead), but sure, get busy and do a remix- the song is well worth the attention.

Hard to go wrong with J&B when it comes to the blues and this
is a cool one indeed.
And it's always nice to hear an even feel blues.
All good here Al, the vocal, the arrangement, the mix and the excellent
use of that solo RT guitar.
We are happy that you brought this one back!
J&B

fj Thanks a bunch, Floyd. And yeah, I agree ... the vocals needs to fall back a little. Appreciate the listen and nice comments. Best to you. Be safe ... Alan

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."
