Back in the 70's, a local radio station was giving away promo discs and I found one by the group “Unicorn” An English band trying to do country rock (produced by Davis Gilmour) I loved it then as now so a year ago, I took a crack at recording a cover of one of their songs. I dont think I ever posted it here. The real band stuff is below. I punched in a lot of the guitar, bass and pedal steel parts that I couldn't get with BnB. I did all the vocals. I hope you like it and search out some Unicorn albums. There are a lot more gems on them.

Sleep Song
Guess we all get those days when it pays not to speak But to keep out of sight and to stay 'neath my sheets In the safety of sleep, in the safety of sleep
There's a man in my mirror face of death morning white Memories of last night hanging over his head I was reaching too tall, I was riding to fall But I climb to my feet for my challenge to greet Though tonight we will meet in the safety of sleep
But it's alright, it's okay, only morning anyway It's alright, it's okay, just another part to play
Fishes float in the breeze I guess to put you at ease But he's already here and I bet he's got plans For the drill in his hand for the drill in my mouth Staring into the nose of a white dental man Hanging onto his seat like a leach or sea clam But he carries on Lord like he's fixing a Ford Come on inject my blood with your merciful drug So my mind may retreat to the safety of sleep
But it's alright, it's okay, only morning anyway It's alright, it's okay, just another part to play
Guess we all get those days when it pays not to speak But to keep out of sight and to stay 'neath my sheets In the safety of sleep, in the safety of sleep
There's a man in my mirror face of death morning white Memories of last night hanging over his head I was reaching too tall, I was riding to fall But I climb to my feet for my challenge to greet Though tonight we will meet in the safety of sleep
But it's alright, it's okay, only morning anyway It's alright, it's okay, just another part to play
Some of us may not have heard the original "Sleep Song" by Unicorn. I know I hadn't so I looked it up on YouTube and found +++ THE ORIGINAL +++ for comparison. Neat song and a nice cover.
Unicorn is a group I hadn't heard of so thanks for alerting us to their music!
To my shame I'd never heard of the Unicorns. Very 'Monkees' in style I thought. Haven't heard the original so I can simply say I enjoyed the song and its well put together using RTs, my fave use of BB. Great job Bests Ian

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.

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."
