I imagined him wearing sunglasses to disguise himself in the recording studio! This made me laugh because when I play with a Southside Johnny tribute band the horn section and I wear all black with sunglasses, and to stay true to the "Asbury Park NJ" homage I get introduced under a double entendre alias name and that I am from Tenafly NJ. I would go so far as to play off stage with that band because my role in the band is to augment the 3 live horns with my sampler/synthesizer horn section. 3 of them out front sounds like 8. THIS is us from a show in July 2019, the last time we played due to Covid restrictions. It's a collage of video form cell phones, movie cams and a drone.
I am using the new 1040XTRAEZ form this year. It has just 2 lines.

Well done!!! That guitar sounds so tasty. I too really liked that section at 2.04. It tickled my ears with pleasure.

Fantastic blues man! Love that guitar and bass line. Eddie's singing, know that it hurts me to say this, is fantastic. Great job Eddie! This had a real live feel to it and that isn't easy to do.
Great work gentlemen!

Hi Rog,
It's a very catchy blues rock. The rhythm is pleasant. I liked the double voice on some passages. Well done.
Kindly regard

In my view that's a classic blues lyric you guys modestly dismiss as not warranting listing. And an excellent blues all round, really well sung and played (including by the sax guy). Much enjoyed.
Regards,
Leon Hi Leon, Many thanks for the positive comments, especially about the lyrics. I'll pass your praise on to the sax guy. Cheers, ROG

Hi Rog,
Had a listen to this yesterday but didn't have time to comment.
This is right up my alley, love this sort of groove.
Great tone on the tele! Cool licks as always and love the interplay between the guitar and the sax.
Best part of the song for me was the bridge at 2:01, nicely done.
Enjoyed! Hi Dave, Many thanks for the review. Coming from another Blues Man, it's greatly appreciated. Cheers, ROG

Happy (belated) birthday, Eddie! Welcome to the better 70s. Love the blues, and, man, you guys have mastered them. Excellent vocal. Cool blues riff throughout, and a great solo. Good job getting the sax guy to play along as if he was right there in the same room with the tape machine. Hi Marty, Thanks for the listen and the positive review. The sax RTs are amongst my favourites - I can't believe how good they sound. Cheers, ROG.

Hi guys,
I'm just a couple of weeks away from turning 70 myself and it's so good to hear that age doesn't seem to matter much when it comes to making good music.
I've loved the Blues ever since I was ten and, no siree - just can't get enough of it.
A wonderful Blues shuffle, well-sung and played - just great. And like Nigel said: That part starting at 2:04 is marvellous!!!
Take care,
Stefan Hi Stefan, Yeah, when it comes to the Blues, age doesn't count at all! Thanks for the listen and the kind comments. Cheers, ROG.

You're gonna always grab our attention with a blues shuffle and this is a good 'un.
Nice vocals/guitar/bass/keyboard performances.
We loved the interplay with your guitar and the RT sax.
The lyric you dismiss actually fits quite well in world of blues writes. Eschew over sophistication and just express yourself vocally and instrumentally.
Enjoyed it!
J&B
Hi there J&B, Thanks for the listen and all the positive comments. The RT sax parts are great - when you're playing together it's just like the sax guy is in the room with you. Pleased you liked the lyrics. Cheers, ROG

'eddie1261'... What gorgeous footage that is! It captures the wonderful vibe of people enjoying live music being performed on a summer's evening. Love that wide-legged 'outlaw' stance you took in the photo displayed at the end of the video!  .

Hi Rog and Eddie,
A nice classic Blues sung with a dark gritty voice. i can underline wath Bluage said on that, even as most others.
I was only wondering why you had waited so long to listen to your own song?
Indeed, an excellent band, like Floyd wrote.
I liked it a lot!
Hans Hi Hans, Glad you liked it. I'm not sure myself why it took us so long to list this one - sometimes we have a few projects on the go at the same time and things get overlooked. Anyway, many thanks for the review. Cheers, ROG

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."
