I'm working on an album of slow moody blues called "Alone And Blue". This is one of the new tracks: https://soundcloud.com/captainmoto/02-captain-moto-lost-and-lonesomeI usually use BIAB for drums and bass. On this one I also used a B3 organ. Drums - BluesMonday Bass - Electric Bas #564 B3 - #1039 Rhythm Guitars - Collings I35, Victoria Silversonic amp, Captain Moto Lead Guitar -Same Captain Moto Vocals - Captain Moto, trying hard Lyrics: I'm lost and lonesome, Dream'n about those long lost days When you brought your love to me, in oh oh so many ways But now I'm lost and lonesome every single day I'm done cry'n, I aint got no tears And my heart is empty, after all these years Oh I'm lost and lonesome, lost and lonesome without you here ~~ Guitar Solo ~~ You're out on your own now, liv'n a new life I'm all alone here, just aint feel'n right I'm lost and lonesome, lost and lonesome day and night I'm broken with sadness, drowning in my sorrow And I know this emptiness, will be my only friend tomorrow I'm lost I'm lonesome, lost and lonesome that's all I know Oh No

A touch of the Gary Moore's. Your guitar playing stamps this well. BIAB does a lot of cool things but emoting isn't one of them the guitar licks do that really well. . Cool.

CaptainMoto, enjoyed this very much! Your guitar work puts me in mind of some of John Fogerty's work on some of the early CCR albums, particularly the longer jam type songs. The attack of the notes and tone are very similar! Take care, T

Hi Captain,
this is the kind of music I've been loving since I was 12 (and that is loooooong ago). No tricks, no frills, just the beef. I really dug your guitar playing: very cool fills and solo.
Very well done !!!!
Take care,
Stefan

We are blues folks.
This is blues.
Voila -- we love it!
Blues vocals and solos either have soul or they don't. Period.
You do in both categories. Guitar and vocals are testifying!

Revisit: Eyes on Success featuring PG Music Inc., Band-in-a-Box®, and the Updated JAWS Script
In the past, Eyes on Success featured an episode that discussed our company history and Band-in-a-Box® program with Tobin, our chief development officer, including how Band-in-a-Box® is even more accessible with the help of their JAWS screen reader scripts!

It's a great idea to pair the two episodes together!

User Tip: How to add drum fills without changing any other tracks
MarioD has shared some great advice when it comes to adding drum fills without changing any other tracks in your song:
There have been a number of questions asking how to add drum fills without changing any other tracks in a song. This is especially important if one is holding a chord for a few measures and wants to add a drum fill prior to the next chord. The following is how to accomplish that:
1-get the instruments/tracks to play like you want but don't worry about the drums for now.
2-generate the song.
3-freeze all tracks
4-unfreeze the drum track
5-add your fills where you want them
6-generated the song again - note this will only generate the drum track and not the frozen tracks
7- when you get the drums like you want them freeze the track

Review - Band-in-a-Box® 2023 for Windows is Overflowing with Features!
Dennis posted his very thorough Band-in-a-Box® review recently, where he dives into some of the new features added with version 2023: Sound-Guy's Band-in-a-Box Review
Read his thoughts on the Download & Install Manager, partial track regeneration, Playable RealTracks, Audio Editing, the addition of SynthMaster, the VST DAW Plugin, and more!
"Band-in-a-Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is, without negative connotation, a monster of a program. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. No DAW can do some of the things BIAB does, while BIAB can do a lot that DAWs do."
