Alan,
Excellent resurrection. Fun blues tune! Cool, slightly detuned piano. Vocals suits well, Di was right, leave it in place! Thank you for sharing.
Misha.
P.S. There are some occasional harsh artifacts, pops... Not sure if it is my soundcard, your file or how soundcloud ate it...

HI Dani ... Thank you so much for your very nice comments. We're most happy you enjoyed the song. We are doin g everything possible to avoid the virus. Di's doctor told her if she were to get it, she probably would not survive it. Her immune system is fully compromised, she has several other major medical issues and she's 75 years old. So, we take every precaution possible - stay home almost all the time, wear masks all the time and clean behind ourselves several times daily. Thank you for your concern! And wed hope 2021 is a fantastic year for you. Warmest regards ... Alan & DI

Good blues song Alan!!
You have a good voice for the blues so I can understand why you write them.
Duane Thank you, Duane. I've only written a hand full of blues tunes, perhaps 8 or 10, over the years. I'm delighted this comes across so nicely. Thanks for your comments - sure do appreciate them. Wishing you well in 20212. Alan & Di

Alan,
One of your best vocals on a very cool song; I don`t really believe you were a misanthrope when you wrote this, but you sing the part so well here!
I was several years from showing up on this forum when you first posted this; makes me wonder about all the other gems on those back pages.
Robert Hi Robert ... I am the antipathy of a misanthrope. I love being with people and joining in their fun. Typically, the more, the merrier. Similarly, xenophobia has never planted itself in my brain. SO, your assumption is square on the nose! I'm extremely happy you liked the song. Thanks for telling me. And yes, there are many wonderful musical nuggets from back then. I occasionally go back and have a listen. I'm rarely disappointed. Best to you and yours in 2021. Alan

Cool, cool song. It's got a lot of drive. And I agree with the others---the vocal is fine and a keeper!
I love these lines at the end of the chorus: "Don't need nobody else/Just me and my self" Now that's a kicker! Hi Ez ... Thank you so much for all that kindness . Sure do appreciate it! That title line came from me listening to my best friend a few years ago. He was having a little difficulty putting a new roof on his garage. I asked him is he needed a little help. His answer was: "Nope, don't need nobody else. Just me and myself will get it done." Thus, the impetus for this song. Thanks again for your nice words. Have a terrific 2021. Alan & Di

Sounds good to me, Alan, right up my alley actually. Thanks for the repost, I guess I missed it the first time around  Hey Dave ... I'll bet I'd like just about everything up your alley! And I'm delighted this one fits up your alley. Glad you enjoyed your listen - Thanks! I was new to the Forum back then and a number of my songs didn't get a lot of attention for a while. But, it's been as real nice ride since. Thanks again for dropping in and listening. Wishing you everything good. Alan & DI

Thanks for the listen and your very encouraging words. I am very partial to the supporting role the piano provided. Thanks for mentioning it. Hope you have a wonderful 20212. ALan & Di

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."
