Bass n vocals could swap levels...a keyboard bass that far up front doesn't really fit in my head.
the rest of the track is great fun...well done with the solo too.


Cheers

Great, authentic recording. I'm impressed that you played all those instruments. The harmonica player is good too. Well written song. It sounds like it was recorded live in a big dance hall. Good cut.

Hello bloc-head,

It's a great beat.
It reproduces the rockabilly of the 50's very well.
Wonderful bass, guitar and organ performances.
The vocals are also very cool.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Brilliant guitar solos. Fits perfectly
Somehow I find the artwork very successful. Probably because of the great red of the oldtimer (I don't even know what model this is....)
Many greetings
Andi ;-)
Hi Andi... not sure 'bout the Hot-Rod, but the guitar pictured is a '50s Gretsch-6120.
Thanks for your ears and friendly words.

Brad...Thanks for the great feedback.

Impressive work on that list of instruments.
Cool Bass. I like the "subtle" drum track.
Killer guitar!
Loved that ending. Nice use of stops.
Excellent vocals and harmonies. (I thought they were perfectly placed in the mix.)
Nice job of getting the BIAB harp in there. Like it was made-to-order.
Music worth listen to. Many times. Chair Dancing.

Thanks Floyd... I really appreciate your encouraging words, and I'm diggin' your latest tune too.

The vocal effects does a good job calling back to older songs. The harmony sounds great as well.
Fun listen! laugh

I finally got around to listening to this again, and I agree... the Bass was a bit too loud.
Re-mixed & Trimmed some of the Bass Track's gain.
Thanks for the good ears Ray...

Thank you for that great review, I hope you still like it after the re-mix.

Thank you Elliott, the harp player is one of the great BiaB Magicians... I can play pretty good Cross-Harp myself, but it was much more convenient to use this RT, plus he's a really good player, and has that great tone...
Thanks again for listening.

WOW that caused a flashback to my leather jack, smokes rolled up in my t-shirt, DA haircut, driving my red convertible and playing Johnny B. Goode at every gig days!

Great 50's rock-a-billy, perfect in every way

Everything is top shelf

This is your best to date IMHO

Loved it

Thank you Marco... Your comments made my efforts all worth while... I was just stirring up some of my ol' memories of growing up in the 1950s & '60s.
I'm so happy you got it...

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."
