Top notch yet again from you two. Two of my favourites on this forum. What can I say - you've knocked it out of the park yet again. Whatever you're doing - keep doing it :-)

Hi Floyd & Tom,

Belated HAPPY BIRTHDAY greetings guys.

A super rolling blues track, with excellent vocals and superb guitar work.

A BIG sound in the chorus, which was my favourite bit.

A nice clear mix, but still powerful.

Cheers,
ROG.

Floyd & Tom,
Love the tradition you honor musically, that swamp style and edgy lyrics; the "escape velocity" phrase is cool.
As others have noted: Killer Chorus!

I've got to try that topline writing method sometime.

Solid song and production. Great vocal and love that guitar. Very enjoyable all around.

I think you came close to 'escape velocity'. Drivin' Blues, yes.

Happy somewhat belated birthday, gentlemen. You've marked the occasion with a very enjoyable song, as one would expect. Great writing, playing, singing and mix. A lovely gift for us all. I was one of those, incidentally, who on first hearing Purple Haze thought Jimi was singing 'scuse me while I kiss this guy' - now a commonly cited example of a mondegreen.
Regards,
Leon

Happy birthday to both of you! Mine's coming up real soon (22nd). #74 - YIKES!!!!!!

I expect nothing but the very best from either of you - and together, well, it's just magic in a song. For me, on the music side, the baritone guitar and drums put this on a path to some really good stuff. The vocals, mix, lyric ... and all that technical stuff ya'll know how to do (I don't know) created one fabulous song. I could keep raving on and on, but I'll wrap it up and say if it gets much better than this, then new boundaries will have be established for greatness in a song.

Best to both of you. Take care and keep entertaining us.

Alan

Wow, that chorus really adds the cherry to this outstanding birthday celebration. Love that guitar --those guitars. As I was reading I figured I was going to have to do some research to find your previous birthday collabs. Wow, thanks for that, too. Happy belated birthday, Tom & Floyd.


Enjoy whatever happens!

This was great fun to listen to. Great groove, a real funky dancer. Vocals and guitars rode it hard and put it away wet. That last vocal note killed me. Nothing swampy about the mix, even at it's busiest. Nice work.

A happy belated birthday to the both of yas.

Why do we have to wait a year to hear two of the finest writers and producers on the forum collaborate?

Spin the high accolades wheel and pick one...it will apply.

We hear two great vocals (nice blues feel fj) and superbly tasteful guitar.

And the write? A clinic in How. To. Do. It. Well. Period.

We could randomly pick a line and it would be a fine one.

We hope y'all had happy birthdays 'cause you two certainly gave us a fine gift!

J&B

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."
