great post sounds brill.

Great rocky job here. Nice interpretation of a great song, the rhythm guitars in particular sound great. I think the vox sound good, you just need to give them a bit more "welly" in the performance so they sound more like the lead vox. You can hold a tune well and your voice sounds good, you just need to be the lead singer a bit more - I'm sure you can do that. Production is very crisp and clear, well done all round.

Cheers,

Nigel

Welcome Pete,

Glad to have another BR600 user here.

This is a great tune, and you have certainly done it justice.
The guitars sound great, and you have a good voice too man!

Can't wait to hear some more of your stuff!

[Speed Demon]

Well done. The vocal needs to stand out a bit more in the mix, but other than that you've
kicked this tune in the butt.

Welcome.

Shameless self-bump.  3 years to the day since my first post on Songcrafters! And its appropriate for the Dead Rockstar Fest - Phil Lynott.

I'm glad I found this (with a little help from the what's ap group)!!!

to be very honest I never appreciated this song until I started to understand how iconic it is to the Irish.... then it was like a light bulb went on...and Thin Lizzy's version became the version for me... I like what TG said...angry fuzz guitars...yeah...good descriptor.

love the lead... The vocals sound really good... ain't nothing there to be ashamed of IMO...  I have become a believer in "you gotta believe in" your vocals...that sells it...no matter how good you are not everyone is going to love or even like them.... I have made peace with that now...
sing on and rock on brother....

Thanks for your comments Stephen. This was my very first track on Songcrafters and the first time I'd released my vocals onto the world wide web so I was feeling a bit self-conscious about my singing. 12 years on, with the support of this wonderful community, I no longer worry about how I sound. I give each song my best shot.. sometimes I get good feedback about my singing sometimes I don't - it is what it is ! Music is subjective and I appreciate that some people might like my singing while others may not.  I love being part of the SC community and the opportunity to form long-distance friendships with wondefrul people like you, and I'll carry on for as long as I'm capable of putting a track together.

Excellent Pete
I really like the two rhythm guitars behind the vocals
I had not heard this song recorded by you...in 2010 I was not yet on SC
[I love being part of the SC community and the opportunity to form long-distance friendships with wondefrul people like you,

I'm a fan of SC just like you
I love the principle of the BUMP which allows songs posted on SC to resurface among the ...17809 (!) topics (incredible) published
There are pepites in this  mine
