This is dedicated to all falling angels of the back street bars and Pasadena Texas honky tonks. https://soundcloud.com/planobilly/drinking-again-mp3-draft-2This was written on acoustic guitar which is not common for me.

Perfectly sung with that good ol' country sound. This is your last country song? Man, I gotta get out more. This is the first one I heard, Billy, so I got some catchin' up to do. Can't wait for what's next.

Can't wait for what's next. Thank you for the kind words. I see you have been to Iceland. I took Icelandic Airline from New York to Luxembourg about a zillion years ago. I stopped over for three days in Reykjavík. Icelandic was known as the "Hippie" airline back in the 60's for their low airfare. That's what got me to Europe the first time I went. Four engine radial prop plane that vibrated all the way to Europe...lol Cheers, Billy

Good ol' country played and sang exactly like it is suppose to be sung and played.
Excellent.
PS - I helped out a band by replacing their lead guitarist for one night in a bar called The Do Drop Inn!
Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up. Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Thanks Mario
I do the best I know how...sometimes chicken sometimes just feathers...lol
This a strange song for me to begin with. I don't drink and the only way to get me in a bar is to pay me to play there. Been happily married to the same woman forever and never was one to run around much even before I was married.
I do know Mickey Gilley and have been to that Honky Tonk a time or two, and no I never rode the mechanical bull there...lol

Well written. Everything fits nicely in the mix. Well done! Thanks for the kind comments. Is that country or western he jokelying ask.... I was trying for country, defined by, at one time at least, a deep, earthy, and universally respected genre of folk music embraced by people from all walks of life, and performed by heartland poets who wrote touching melodies and thought-provoking but subtle messages about life, love, and loss. I am certainly not sure if I hit the mark as I am not well known for being subtle. I also have listen to and most likely been influenced by the volumes of what now passes for country music coming out of Nashville. It's not that I don't like the new music, I really do, it's just not country.

Sounds like the real thing to me, with some good lyrics and a nice vocal to boot. Some of the hesitations in the melody lines I wasn't so sure about, but that's a minor quibble. Very good work!

Sorry for the late response. I have had a lot of issues at the farm to deal with. Retirement is just a idea that has not been very consistent...lol

Thanks for the feedback. I have done a bit of new work on the vocal to have it better phrased. If I ever get it like I want it I will repost it. Thanks, Billy

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."
