Drummers have always seemed to be the most difficult to find people in any band I have ever been involved in. Greg is one of the nicest people I have ever met in the music business.

It is greggdrums2@gmail.com, just in case you want him to play on one of your tracks.

I.m acquainted with a couple of drummers and they are cool - probably the best all round musicians I know too.

Those are two impressive tracks! Dang! Talk about Playa's! What part/s did you have in the projects? I'm guessing guitar but is there a way I would know what's you?

Very cool to hear these btw! So well done!

I am not sure at this late date who did what. Well, other than Gregg played drums, and Lewis played lead guitar. There were a lot of recordings that got done in those years.

Paul English played B3 parts, and the recording was most likely more than fifty tracks deep. The recordings took place in three different studios over a period of a year. Lewis and I have played all these songs live with the band. The live gigs were never exactly like the recordings.
We all did whatever we could to support each other. Musicians come and go, so we always had to adapt to what we had to work with.

I usually have been responsible for the harmonic structure on the guitar, among other things, and some horn stabs on the keyboards over the years. There are also copywriting restraints that prevent me from posting some things I would like to post. There are also some very complex health issues involved that are very private.

All this took place in Los Angeles and Arizona, and Texas a good many years ago when we were much younger. I have been lucky to have been able to play with some world-class musicians.

Gregg is ten or fifteen younger than me and is still working as a studio musician.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

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.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

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.

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."
