NOT TURNING BACK

Sorry for my absence lately! I thought I had better drop back in for a song or two! I'm also sorry I've missed some songs by you all, but I'll try to catch up!
This instrumental tune is an uptempo Jazzy type of thing that I hope you all enjoy! Thanks, T

Glad you're back Torrey.
Very cool Instrumental piece... great melodic guitar lead, and I love the background vox too.
This is an outstanding arrangement, but I do miss your always spectacular singing voice & style...
Great to hear from you again.

Very awesome my man.

Reminds me of the glory days of Jeff Beck and Jan Hammer.

Makes me want to play more instrumental music like this too!

This is a fantastic instrumental

Ah, when Jeff was trying to sound like a keyboard & Jan a guitar.
I saw them in Sydney on the tour than produced "Jeff Beck with the Jan Hammer Group Live" I think.

Yes Torrey, very Jeff except you use recognizable Torrey Bliss melodies which ups the game.
ACE!


Cheers

Welcome back Torrey, you've been missed. Another good tune. You have a style all your own and I like it. I sure like the tone and effects you use on your guitar. Great playing and good melody. I like how you blended all your musical thoughts on this one, great mix.

Wow, excellent guitar playing Torrey! A very bright yet full guitar sound you've got there.

You surely are "walking" over that guitar neck with great ease :-).

Nicely done, Torrey!

Love that little melodic hook you came up with, definitely stays with you after the song is done.

Excellent composition, arrangement, and playing.

Loved it!

Quite different from what I was used to from you, Torrey!
Only in the ooh's I recognized it was you.
And what a guitar solo you played. Impressing!

Wow, Torrey, top-notch all the way. I really like your singing, and, man, you can really sing on that guitar, too. LOVE this style of song, and you present it so well. Truly amazing artistry. Of course, I left your Reverbnation page up while typing and have been Inside and on my way to Upside Down. Yep, you are a terrific singer.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Thanks for the cool funk instrumental, pleasure to listen to the leading groove which then turns to a melodic pop tune and later comes back to the nice fusion bridge. Enjoyed the chord progression, the arrangement and your stylistic guitar playing.

Hey Torrey ...

Beyond cool! You got some ice water to dip those fingers in? I first listened this last night, I think it was. But wasn't feeling well and didn't comment. But I'm very pleased I came back to it to let you know my thoughts. Sweet!!!

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."
