Dan, this is beautiful! The vocals are fabulous, and the backing track is perfect. I flipped back to the credits to see what that great piano RealTrack was, but it was you...that's really, REALLY nice. If I have a complaint it's that the song is too short. Ha!

Dan & Amber ...

Simply gorgeous in every aspect. As Bob said, soothing. I think I said everything I felt in those few words. Everything beautiful sums it up from here.

I've been in your part of the country in winter - mid-December a number of years ago. The wind can cut you in half!

Best to you,

Alan

Well, thank you very much, my friend. I just downloaded the whole album and have a couple hours in the car today, so it's Christmas albums from you, Greg Johnson, James Delsono and Gayle Snyder. I'll be in the slow lane with a smile.


Enjoy whatever happens!

HA! The last couple have been long. And to your credit, they Never seem Long. Talent.


A stunning vocal.

Beautiful piano. When the BIAB instruments are added, they blend in perfectly.

The mix is exquisite.

LOVE the lyric economy.

One Hell of a New Christmas Song!
WOW.

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."
