Some Of These Days Another update of an old public domain classic. Some Of These Days - Shelton Brooks 1919 Shelton Brooks and "Some of These Days" was brought to Sophie Tucker's attention in 1910 by her maid, who insisted she meet Brooks and hear the song. Tucker instantly recognized its hit potential, performed and recorded many versions throughout the years, and eventually it became her signature song—including landing movie appearances to perform it. Tucker first recorded the song along with others on wax cylinder format in 1910–11. In 1926, on 78 RPM record format and backed by Ted Lewis and his band, Tucker recorded her classic, million-selling 1926 version, which stayed in the #1 position on the charts for five weeks beginning November 23, 1926, and re-affirmed her lasting association with the song. "Some of These Days" has been recorded by many other artists, including Ethel Waters, Louis Armstrong, Cab Calloway, Bing Crosby, Bobby Darin, Ella Fitzgerald, Diahann Carroll, Judy Garland, Leon Redbone, and recently by Janice Merritt. Janice – Vocals and arrangement. I played some guitar and arrangement. Bud recorded Janice and mastered the track.

Peter, Janice & Bud,
This song was a real treat! In the late 1970s I worked at a radio station out on the east end of Long Island, NY. I always used to play the Darin version from his "Darin at the Copa" album. I have not thought of this song in years.
Love the version you guys have put together. An absolutely awesome vocal by Janice - just perfect! The track selections are stellar and fit great with your guitar.
Bud, as always, mixes to perfection! A clear and punchy sound that really brings this one home.
LOVED IT!
Bob

Bob Thank you Bob! And I’m happy it brought back memories. I’ve enjoyed versions of it all my life. I was delighted when Peter suggested this “jump blues” style. Thanks again for the kind comments. Janice PS Bud wanted to mention that Peter handled the mixing while Bud mastered the result.

YEOW!! Saw this one listed and couldn't wait. Nobody does it better than you three. Great acoustic solo, terrific arrangement. I'm really loving the collection of PD songs you guys are doing. Each one, including this, is better than any other recording before it. Seriously. Love the feel of this. Everything is so good from upper left to coda.

I've never heard the original, but I would have guessed it was from the 1920s. Sounds authentic. Great upbeat vibe and of course fantastic work by all involved. Oh, and I LOVE the "vocal" solo or whatever you call something like that

WOW, you three did it again!
Another masterpiece.
As usual outstanding vocal, guitar, and production.
Loved it
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.

So cool! Everything fits the era and mood of the song. Janice's scat singing and the intentional breaking of her voice in a few places are really special. And the piano track puts the perfect icing on the project. And Peter's guitar is spot on (isn't it always?).
Very nice, folks! A most enjoyable listen!
Alan

Bouncy and driving! Great vocals, and some tasty guitar playing as well! I could tell Bud didn't do the mix because the FX chains weren't listed in the notes.  Nice work, all!

Oh, and I LOVE the "vocal" solo or whatever you call something like that Thanks for the positive and supportive review! And, hey, that “solo singing” is called “scatting” and was popularized by Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald … way back Janice

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."
