Great sound throughout. Very cool organ! An infectious rhythm in those guitars. Hot solo.

Good write.
"You haven’t said a word all day
Itching for a fight
Then off to bed without a word
Or a kiss goodnight"

...excellent.

Great mix (as always). A great listen. Hot.

well, I was getting ready to say it reminded me of a mix of the Eagles and Santana, but the first two comments beat me to the punch. So, just to be ornery, I said it anyway.

Been away a long time, but when I do return for a listen, I never leave without finding something you've posted. You never disappoint. You have the gift that only comes from time spent in front of live audiences. All of your songs are home runs. I especially appreciate the fact that you play on most if not all of them.

I used to make an effort to comment in great detail about what I had just heard, but in your case, I found myself saying "wow that was awesome" so much that I guess I stopped listening analytically and just started listening for pleasure.

I've been in a bluesy mood lately, so this song really hit the mark for me. Thanks for posting. Good stuff.

from trees taken down last summer !
...and as my barn is snowclad
the fire won´t burn it down when
you do it during high winter !
I enjoyed this tune truly much !

Stay Safe and Take Care, Tom !

Cheers

Dani, thanks for stopping by,Tom

Thank you Leon. I always enjoy hearing what you have to say,Tom

My humble regards,

Deej
Thanks for all that. I appreciate it,Tom

It's a loud mix but that's fine - it suits it well.
Terrific vocal and guitar performances.
I did note, very early on, an ESS going a bit haywire but it didn't recur so I assume it was a oncer.
Excellent.
Ray I’m glad you liked it, Tom

Man, that Tele is SMOKING.

Great vocal and a killer lyric. You have a way of taking a common
love lost theme and presenting it in a fresh way -- quite the gift we say.

And as always the mix is a clinic in how to make it all work, i.e., the soundstage is perfect.

Worthy of many listens!

J&B
Thanks Bud & Janice. It’s always great to hear your comments,Tom

Greg, l think I just pushed the vocal a little harder than usual. Thanks for the very kind review,Tom

Awesome sound all around.

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."
