Brilliant! I really love the vocal harmonies. I had to listen again to hear the excellent lyrics. First time through I was too busy listening to how the voices sounded rather than what you were saying! Excellent arrangement and mix.

I loved Echo in the Canyon. The covers were done quite well, so I had to buy the soundtrack.
This has a nice laid back feel--very reminiscent of that place and time.
Very well produced and performed.

Just fantastic. You're really singing my heart here. I hope I was hearing some electric 12-string arps in there, but I heard them either way. Line after line of sweet refences tempered with wisdom, but still allowed to be. Love this so much. Thanks so much for those kind words! They mean a lot to me!! Take care. Greg

Hi Greg
Haven't looked in a for a little while, so just catching up on a few songs. It's all been eloquently said already about this one, so I'll simply say I agree. A sublime tribute to the Laurel Canyon scene, beautifully written and performed.
Regards,
Leon

Hello Greg,
enjoyed the vocal with the double voice. It is very successful. Certain tones recall this mythical group the birds. The guitar solo finds its place and the arrangement is great.

Greg,
Love the sound of this one right out of the get—really tight, rich harmonies—and the melody and arrangement really soars. You can hear a lot of the influences here. Excellent mix, so smooth from start to finish. Outstanding work, Greg.
Kind regards,
Deej

"My heart was in the canyon and my head was in the clouds." Wow, what a great line. Another winner by one of the best here on the Showcase. Loved everything about this. Fantastic vocals as usual. Need a lyric sheet, might be some other great lines I missed. Liked ending the song with a guitar solo. Thanks so much for that wonderful review!! It really means a lot to me!! Take care. Greg

WOW! You have outdone yourself with this one, Greg! Lyrics really spoke to me being a child of the 60's/70's, just an exceptional write. And I'm certainly getting a Byrds vibe with those (sublime!) vocals/harmonies. I watched that movie too a while back, thanks for the reminder, I think I'll watch it again tonight. I'm with Tangmo; Fantastic is a perfect one word summary! Loved it  Thanks so much Dave!! ALWAYS love your stuff!! Take care. Greg

BEAUTIFUL.
In every regard.
Songwriting - Beautiful! Top-shelf. A real Knock Out.
Vocals - Beautiful! All those guys rolled into one - the Byrds, CSNY, The Eagles, a little Beach Boys, the Mamas and the Papas...
Production & Mix - Beautiful.
Don't ever let go of that dream!
SO damn good!!
fj Thanks so much my friend!! High praise from you means so much to me!! Take care, Greg

Greg, This is great! It certainly has a real 60s sound if that was your goal. I love Carole King as well. What a writer. Love this tune, my friend. Keep it up! Nothing but the hits!!

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!

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."
