Hi Ed Your vocals are hitting it for six (cricket parlance) . I think in the USA you say hitting it out of the park . I could not think of another way to compliment your excellent vox. Ed wrote <"Starting to get the hang of the R-16">
Yep , sounding good.
Keep 'em coming Ed (btw do you do requests? Closer Walk with Thee )
cheers Gary.

I got up to 1:40 and figured it was an instrumental. I enjoyed the listen - thanks for posting!

Thanks, Gary. I have this one, that to my surprise out performed the rest on Drooble. It is instrumental & about time for it to get the vocal track. https://drooble.com/song/3029693Hey, David. it is: V1 Ch1 -- Instr. Piano V2 Ch2 -- Instr. G. V3 Ch3 -- Vocal If you were to rearrange, what would you? I confess, my arrangements today are based on what I feel are the best takes. Not a good system. Thanks for the comment.

Hey, David. it is: V1 Ch1 -- Instr. Piano V2 Ch2 -- Instr. G. V3 Ch3 -- Vocal If you were to rearrange, what would you? Just because a song falls outside the norms doesn't mean it should be changed. Generally, there's nothing wrong with having a short vocal song. I'd have probably dropped the long instrumental, or put it at the end. But would it have been an improvement? I wouldn't say that. I didn't comment because I was complaining, just that I was surprised. Unless you've got someone who skips your version because they don't find vocals in the first half - and that's not likely a real problem - I see no reason to change it.

Thanks Floyd. Thanks, Scott. I'm finding a work flow -- do a public domain, do an original. Going with that.

Hi edshaw,
Nice very catchy composition. It is soft in the chosen arrangement. It's pleasant and well done.

Ed,
It’s a pretty arrangement, and your vocal is really strong (though I’m wondering if it should sit back in the mix just a little bit—it’s a little too forward on a couple of notes). I think for me among the best I’ve heard from you.
I do think David has a point about the long “intro”—not sure the casual listener will stay with it (unless they are a fan of instrumentals). Mind you, it works as is. If I were to think about an alternative way to do it, I’d shorten the intro (maybe to 30 seconds or so) and then use the break after the first verse (at 2:32) to go into a longer instrumental, finishing up with that last verse and ending the song just how you do.
As David said, that’s not necessarily an improvement, just a different approach to cater to the dwindling attention span of many of today's listeners.
Good stuff, Ed!
All my best to you,
Deej

Thanks for the listen and comment, Deej56. Points well taken. Thank you, Greg. There's this undiscovered treasure trove of bluegrass gospel on YouTube that has been helpful.

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!

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."
