Meet Me At The Crossroads - AndyR Original

[Geir]

Finally, at last... I've got something finished...

And finally I got to listen to it !!

WOW Andy !!

Fantastic, absolutely fantastic!

For several weeks I've had the Bon Scott era AC/DC studio albums on rotation on my mp3 player, figuring out his phrasing, backing vocal techniques, etc. Then 2 or 3 times a week I'd get home from work, come up here, plug a mic in and try to become Bon Scott. I usually taped the last effort on each day, and I could see how it was improving. Next morning on the way to work, I'd be listening to AC/DC again, trying to pick up some more clues...

Now that's dedication !!!

Flawless! Sounds like it was recorded in a pro-studio. Incredible guitars, vocals and arrangement. And the solo is mashed Billy Gibbons / Angus Young brilliance. A really hot track. Awesome.

[Farrell Jackson]

This is a better than good rocker Andy! A stunning mix and performances. Everything sits exactly where it should be and your words/voice have a definite Bon Scott vibe to them with a killer chorus. Lastly, your guitar solo has all the tone sweetness and phrasing to put the song over the top. Nice work!

That is great rockin' song!!!

A super "two guitars" riff, love the vocals as the AC/DC great ones
Frankly, a stunning performance, the guitar solo is truly awesome

Andy.this is great. As far as I'm concerned any song that has the lyric "Standing there In your underwear Saying that you need some food" can never be bad. But seriously this is top notch stuff......good work here and a great guitar break too.

Putting this one on the big sound system tonight, sweet man, real sweet.  You channel old school rock very well.  Sounds very good.

Thanks folks

Now the dust has settled on it, it's kinda grown on me too... (I tend to go through "oh wow! this is fab, listen to me" as I post, then "oh well, I'll do better next time" after a few days, and if I'm lucky, I end up with "ok, I'm quite happy with wot I did there..." ... this seems to be one of those for me).

This made me laugh:

As far as I'm concerned any song that has the lyric "Standing there In your underwear Saying that you need some food" can never be bad.

It was getting that couplet early on that gave me a "song" worth finishing over the rocking stuff that was kind of in place with a title and not much else.

And what's even better - it's all true!! (Except I don't really have a teddy bear, he's entirely metaphorical... oh, and I haven't smoked a pipe for 30-odd years!)
