I'm enjoying searching YouTube and finding international talent that has hung their hat on the country music hat rack.

Bobby Cash has toured Australia, played on the Grand Ol' Opry and won a CMA award. He is a fine vocalist and guitar player. However, he really needs a better sounding acoustic guitar. The sound is harsh because of the piezo pickup. For that reason I choose +++ THIS +++ video. It is a studio cut and the guitar I hate is not used.

India' Top Country Entertainer? What? shocked

My business took me to India many times over the past 20 years. India, is very diverse and very regional. Things are different in the north, south, east and west, but I can tell you, the whole country has one thing in common, no one is listening to this in India. crazy

A three minute ad? I don't think so.

Sounds like the names that the scammers use...


I am using the new 1040XTRAEZ form this year. It has just 2 lines.

That is good country regardless of what country he came from.


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Perhaps that is why he spends time touring internationally, because his music is not appreciated in his home country. I've seen some videos of him singing songs from India with Indian instruments playing behind him. I haven't seen anything naming him India's Top Country Entertainer. I came up with that while trying to think of a subject header for the thread.

Bud, I don't understand the three minute ad remark. I don't pay for YouTube so I see a lot of ads. What I'm seeing is an ad, skip ads button and then the video. The video is a cassette tape with moving leds to simulate reel movement and oscilloscope audio signal where the clear window normally is. The audio is a studio album cut.

At least he doesn't start each performance with, "Hello my name is Bobby Cash" (Think Johnny Cash impression).

I thought the song was pretty good too Mario.

I’m very active on YouTube as we watch music on it about every night. Your link sent me to a three minute ad with no skip option. I moved the FF slider over and at the end it started over. You gotta watch all three minutes to get through. I’ve had this happen before but not often. I was logged into YT so perhaps I was being targeted by algorithms but I doubt that. I recently loaded all of our videos on Vimeo as I grew tired of folks having to watch a YT prostate ad - no matter how short. smile

Well.....

I'm a personal fan of Benny Lava. If you don't know, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCB-GMpQ4ko You have been warned.....!

As far as this Cash song and singer goes.... I haven't heard of him but I don't live in India either. That is country the way it was here back in the 70's and 80's and unfortunately, it's not what Nashville is playing these days.

I take it as an interpretation, an East India take on country.

Benny Lava didn't do much for me. I like Aki Kumar's music. For both, are there any examples of either of them singing in English?

I'm not being snobbish but one of the "selling points" of both Bobby Cash and +++ Shota Adamashivili +++ is they sing well in English even though English is not the native language for either of them.

Pretty good original song. The drummer and guitar player do a fine job backing him up. Not bad harmonica playing. Everybody seems to think you have to have that distorted harmonica sound when playing the blues. I disagree with that but I seem to be a party of one.

Thanks for the link. Great to hear Aki Kumar sing in English.

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.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first?

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."
