Hello Cap'n ...

Yep - I liked it a lot. I read most of the other reviews, which I don't often do, and read a variety of comparisons you other artists. I tend to agree with the Buffalo Springfield suggestion. Nonetheless, it just sounds like what I've come to anticipate from you. I was not disappointed.

Great lyric, band, vocal and presentation/delivery. I enjoyed your vocal very much. Nicely doine in all respects. Take care and be safe ...

Hello CaptainMoto,

The lyrics are awesome and so true. The tone of the voice lends itself wonderfully. The arrangement is pleasant and the tempo well calibrated to the message.

Kindly regard

Hey Alan,
Thanks for taking the time to listen, read and comment.
The Buffalo Springfield comparison is a new one to me.
Given I generally hate my voice, I'll gladly take any positive comparison.

Thanks

Hi Captain,

What a pleasant surprise hearing you sing this. I liked it immediatly!
I had the impression your vocals would sound more 'massive', but they did nothing of that at all. Nice, gentle and sensitive, with all kinds of twists in the words you sing. Very cool.

And the lyrics? I am afraid they are so true nowadays in your country, or am I talking politics again...

Enjoyed listening very much,

Hans

Thanks Hans,
I'm always struggling with my vocals so, positive reinforcement is always encouraging.

Politics???
I wish there was something else grabbing my attention but, these days even life and death has become political here in the good old U.S.A.
The onslaught of disinformation and deliberate confusion being spewed is overwhelming.

This is great from note one. Hooked me from the start. There are some songs where you just know it's gonna be good right off and this is one of them. That groove you created was just irresistible, like a slow moving river. For some reason, it makes me think of Eric Clapton - something in the sound.

Great song - very much enjoyed!

Hi Captain Moto,

This is a great song... well written, excellently arranged and presented with pizzazz! The topic material reminded me of protest songs from the 60s. As others have said, the mix is excellent and you've got your vocals sitting very comfortably in among the instruments.

This is definitely one to be proud of.

All the best,
Noel

Captain,
I am yet to hear a weak tune from you. Excellent tune, fits perfectly into the theme of your album. Lyrics say it all. Good vocals and guitar work. I too hear (perhaps unintentional) JJ influence. Listens very well, but I do agree with Ray that some d-esser on vocals would benefit this. Also, maybe up the vocal just couple dbs.
Enjoyed my listen. Thank you for sharing.

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.

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."
