Gary,

An excellent use of BIAB. Great BAND. One of the best uses of the crooner horns I've heard.

Good vocals. Solid mix.

And a good "simple" write that works perfectly.

Really well done all around.

Hi Gary,

Original spoken intro and outro. Your well-paced composition is well mixed. I like your well put voice that comes out well. Good use of biab realtracks. The whole is well done. I appreciated.

Love it, Gary. Perhaps you are stuck, but, man, not stuck for creative expressions. Outstanding vocals and harmony. Wow, those horns sounds great. So hot. "Sure makes a mess of this box of candy." Excellent from start to fade.


Enjoy whatever happens!

There are a bunch of really excellent styles in BiaB that I know I'll never use, and it's a kick to hear people use them, especially when it's done so well, like you do here.

Great write - fits perfectly. Good singing, even if it's reluctantly done. wink

The horns, the solos, the phrasing, the harmonies - everything comes together to make this a fun recreation of this style of music.

And the spoken bit is - dare I say it - a hoot. laugh

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Gary,

I liked that old time radio sound intro! That's a cool song idea and production! I think your instrumentation choices were beautiful for this! That clarinet was perfect for this! Take care, T

Hi Floyd
When posting a new song it is always a nervous wait for the first comment. When I saw that the first respondent was you Floyd I was even more nervous .
I am overjoyed to read your positive comments which mean a great deal to me. Thank you Floyd.

Hi Ronnie.
Yeah biab is a quality product. I've been using it for well over twenty years (we havn't always seen eye to eye) and I feel I have only scratched the surface of it's capabilities.
Thank you for you kind words Ronnie.
cheers
Gary.

Great sweet melody and the old time mood dance together nicely. I very much enjoyed the vocals and feel good lyrics. The band is excellent and the clarinet solo made me wonder how Woody Allen would use this song in his movie.

That spoken word intro (and outro) was unexpected, but fun!

Good song, you captured that era pretty well I thought, well done!

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!

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."
