"rsdean"...
First thing I noticed about "Baby, Get Gone", was the size and presence of the sound: "phat", steady, implacable and spacious-sounding drum work, sinuous and interlocking guitar lines, wave-like but subtle volume level changes that created the effect of the song moving around in space, surround style...I guess I'm trying to say that your production sensibilities are solid, imaginative. "Great sonic texture", as Greg Johnson said in his post.
The song itself is sensuous, stark, full of spare images that blossom in the mind, fade out, and then flash into life, over and again, with each line of verse. It just has that life-seen-from-all-sides sound to it.
Concerning your lyrics, I liked the brevity of the lines. You sang them as though your breath was halted by the emotion that each phrase conjured up.
Haunting, powerful, yet measured and reflective. That's how "Baby, Get Gone" affected me, "rsdean". If this was on a record, I'd play it last, for maximum effect.
Caught up in it,
LOREN (.a.k.a. "bluage")

This is the best song I have heard from you, nice pop melody with catchy simple chorus. Reminds me of Lou Reed, could be a perfect fit/hit for an Indie movie. Electric and acoustic guitar play well together. Excellent mix, your voice sounds very clear.

Wow, one of your best we think.
Everything sounds so right, the vocals, the guitars.
And we love that AltCountryMoody RT BTW.

Bob,
You've done it again! This song really pulled me into it. I'm with Bud and Janice in that the first verse lyrics grab hold and reel the listener in big time. There's no escaping the song after that. The backing is a perfect frame for your songwriting and your signature vocals.
Definitely one to be proud of!
All the best,
Noel

Bob,
Wonderful vocal on the very tight rhythm!
This song reminds me of John Denver's "Take Me Home, Country Roads" a little bit.
I agree with floyd.
This truly sounds like an opening cut off an album - an introduction that says "Listen up! You are in for a treat!" Cool album-cover picture to go with it....
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi

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."
