You had me with the word "Americana", on of my favorite genres.

That is some sweet guitar playing and a fabulous tone, a beautiful light touch. Very elegant and melodic. And that is a really hip chord progression.

I really enjoyed your tune. Fantastic.

Cheers,

Frank

Thanks a lot Frank for your super comment, made my day - very pleased you like my tune!!
The brain and fingers are not young any more (nearly 72), so it's great you thought my guitar touch was ok!

Hope you continue to enjoy Americana - I love it.
Cheers Frank, all the best from the UK. Carl

I can really relate as I am 74, but I must say your touch on that axe is fantastic. Absolutely perfect chops in this song. Your slide work is excellent also. Plus as a bonus you play keys equally well.

You are a multi-talented musician!


My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not.

Some really lovely melodic playing throughout and a lovely tone.
Liked it when the slide came in - very pretty.

Very nice all round.

Hi Mike B, Mario and Peter - thank you so much for your super comments, really glad you like my tune and playing.
When you get to this ripe old age, you do begin to wonder whether everything still works ok (I mean fingers & brain of course) - your comments are very reassuring!

All the very best from the UK. Carl

I didn't spot the slight distortion in V1 - here's a link to a hopefully clean V2:

Sweet tones. Nice mix. Very easy on the ear.


My music may not set the world on fire but if it causes a glow in just one person's heart, it has all been worthwhile 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.
