I like how you take those old songs and make them new again.

Thank you Herb and the drum comment is much appreciated as, yes, it does take some effort. But for us tweaking an RD to work with a specific tune is enjoyable.

The girls' chorus created by Waves Harmony is wonderful.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Thank you Shigeki!
Good to hear from you and we look forward to your productions this year.

You three make some fabulous music! Great arrangement and delivery. Of course, Peter's guitar work just shines. And what can be said about Janice's vocals that hasn't already been said? She just knows how to sing - and we get the immense pleasure of listening to it!

Everything is spot on. Music doesn't get any better than this!

Take care,

Alan

The girls are killin' it.

A Stunning Mix. You don't even think about it as it plays. It's just Right.

Nice album cover.

This is as good as anything you have ever done.
That's saying a Lot.

FAB.

Thanks Ray for your comments and continued support over the years. And we are sure Peter is, as we are, delighted that you caught the Hendrix vibe.

Cool!

This is your wheelhouse - find an old song, and breathe life into it by throwing Janice at the vocals.

Of course, Peter's not slacker, either! That's some impressive guitar playing!

I wasn't sold on the BGVs being realistic because they were a bit too parallel... But I was sold on them being exactly the sound the song called for. It brought to mind some of those 1920's cartoon, and I had the image of a chorus of inanimate objects singing out the BGVs while some Betty Boop-esque character chides the audience with her Janice's voice. laugh

Love it!

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

I thought for sure you were going to break into All Along the Watchtower after that intro!

Wonderful vocal! And smokin' hot guitar solo, I could hear shades of Jimi during the solo too.

Love the ending with that held note!

This sounds great you three, I love the way you take these old classics and put your own spin on them.

PB&J,You've done it again! Terrific performances from Janice and Peter. Chops galore. The mix is perfecto. The rhythm section is kicking. The drum sound is big and powerful and together with the bass moves some air. Great arrangement, great vocals and great guitar work! Among your best work, Tom

1,001 degrees Fahrenheit all around: guitar, vocal, production (mix and mastering sound impeccable).
I concur with all the other comments. This is one exceptional performance and recording. I think my headphones melted.

And that guitar solo is one of the best I've heard in a long time. Tasteful shredding.
Top work from all of you.
Keep it coming...

Thanks man! And we agree that Peter took it to another level for sure.

I made a mistake of listening to the original song first thinking you can't top that.... But you made the song totally your own (although I wished that you had used similar instrument shots in the "I don't want no two-time stuff..." section).

What a great blues rock shuffle, really hot arrangement with punchy drums and hotter than hell guitar solo by Peter, probably the best shredding heard on this forum. And Janice's singing is so powerful and fiery that I can see even the devil himself dancing and crowd-surfing in the audience, those harmonies are also pleasantly evil smile

J&B and Peter,
Super rendition. "A" class vocals, fun fx BGVs! One hell of a solo by Peter! Lots of good energy. Production and mix is very PRO. Listens very well, no complaints. Fun picture too smile
Thank you for sharing.

Nice bluesy song. Like the vocals very much, its sounds like Bette Midler song especially on the BGVs parts. Great overall production. This one works on every level: Song, Lyrics, Vocals, Production, guitar tones and groove. Very nice listen.

I love how you folks do thiese PD songs.

Thanks a bunch Marty! You are a blues man and that makes us even more appreciative of your kind and supportive comments.

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."
