Happy New Year to the three of you.

Thank Al. Bud had a lot of valuable input from Peter including his guitar work and Leon’s lyric was a wonderful gift.

Y’all have a great new year. Take care.

Thank you very much Scott. Comments like this make it all worthwhile. We all appreciate it and Bud throws in an extra thanks for mentioning the mix.

Leon, those were some great lyrics!


Thanks Mario. We appreciate those kind remarks. Yep, Leon handed us an excellent lyric for sure.

Happy New Year!

J,B,P&L, this one hits a lot of high marks in your respective roles. Great lyrics and melody. Perfectly performed vocals and guitar. A stellar mix and arrangement. The idea to drop the drums from the pre chorus was particularly inspired. Love the guitar tone. This shows the power of collaboration with highly accomplished people in their specialties. Well done Again! Tom

That vocal has such a nice presence in the mix. Good vocal performance--soft and heartfelt.

Love Leon's chorus. That's a gem of lyric writing.

Guitars: what can I say? Fits in the song organically.

Nice arrangement, that Pre-Chorus especially is very effective.

Janice sounds awesome as usual, really loved what she did at the outro! And nice job developing the melody and changes.

And of course I always enjoy hearing Peter do his thing.

Great way to start off the year, well done guys and gal!


Did you ever put a smile on Janice’s face!

Thanks Dave.

Great write. Music-then-lyrics is how it happens with me, so I'm always impressed when someone can take such good lyrics and come up with such great music. Outstanding production, Bud --as always. Well done everyone!!!


Enjoy whatever happens!

Late to the party..... Nice country groove going on.

I enjoyed listening. Lilly got up off the floor and started jumping on me and barking.... I don't know if she was commenting on the song or what....

Yep, good one. I like those vocal slurs up.....

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."
