Trios are fun...played in a couple. A lot easier to come to agreement smile

You guys just keep on delivering some of the finest music on this forum...heck, some of the finest
compared to the blues rock playlist we listen to ALL the time on Apple Music.

Cool to see you with the lead vocal and write on this. Excellent.

Great melodic guitar...tone and chops and very nice piano also!

Did somebody mention the bass? smile Oh yeah! Nailed. And we love that even tone you
get...every note right in the pocket and cutting through the mix in the best of ways.

Fun!

I'm glad that you decided to sing this as this is right up your vocal alley. You sang the hell out of this one! Of course we all knew there would be a killer lead from Dave and Christiane's piano was icing on the cake. The mix was fantastic.

You all should be very proud of this one.

Thanks, jptjptjpt. Right? Not only is Dave a top-notch guitarist, but, man, he is good with a mixing board.

I also agree with the comment that the piano could have been more up front. But, as I said ... really sweet as is. Glad you found that style and went with it.

best to ... all three of you. Be safe ...

Thanks so much, Alan. I really appreciate your comments. Be well.

Very impressive!

And a great band too. Dave's excellent guitar work in all the right places and
some beautiful piano from Chris.

All wrapped-up in a great mix.

Loved it.

ROG.


Thanks so much, ROG. Dave & Chris are really quite amazing in how they work together, and at the same time can make me feel like I was always a part of it. Never been in a band this pleasant. Who knew that long-distance bands would be the best thing ever.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Marty, Dave and Chris, your sound on this is fantastic! The mix is wonderful and your vocal is perfect for this! Chris made the right call in deferring to you for the lead vocal and that's saying something considering her great talent! Everyone involved offered up a pro performance here! Thanks, T

It's obvious that this one did the trick. I like how you used the name of the style in the song. cool.

Nice work on the bass, piano and guitar.


Thanks, Herb. You're right about it getting to me. I wrote some chords then auditioned some styles, and when it came to this one said, "Sweet, Devilish Style." Next thing I knew, the lyrics sheet was done.

Thanks, Mario. You're right. Chris's voice is way too angelic to be devilish.

C'mon, Dave. Do it, man. Chris could be the rose, and we could be the thorns surrounding her. What a contrast.

Thank you all!! I read and appreciate every comment. But rather than bumping it to the top when the post is lost on page 2, I'd really prefer to listen to YOUR new stuff. So this will be my last reply here, although I'll still read any further advice or comments. I composed a little ditty with this sentiment in mind --"Bump Me To The Top", on my SoundCLoud page.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Marty & all at Blue Attitude,
SweEEt vocal on a very cool lyric- some of the styles do have well chosen names.
I like the way you really got into the spirit for the vocal and all the usual wonderful Blue Attitude quality backs you up. I`m glad you were persuaded to lead out on this!

Robert

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."
