Hello I'm Andy Evans Formerly from the band Atlantic


Andy "Van" Evans

Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone,

I was lucky enough to play Guitar on an Album called "Power" with a band called Atlantic (many years ago) with Phil Bates and Simon Harrison and I got to write and play 90% of the Guitar Solo's and some of the guitar on it.

I am a Heavy Metal Guitarist and always will be, but on the Atlantic Album the brief was 'Tasteful' Guitar and so I had to tone down what I normally did and I think I became a better guitarist because of it.

Anyway, I have been writing songs myself now for a while and I have been coerced into putting the songs up I have written/played and recorded myself on Youtube by people who say they like what I do. 

Here are the links.  See what you think.

I hope the Links work.

Keep Rocking

Andy Evans

Thank you.  It's quite expensive I believe to buy now.  I never really got any money out of it. Not sure if Phil and Simon did either.

I have the tapes of us rehearsing it somewhere.  Also some of the singles on record of "can't hold on" which is a slightly different version to the one on the album.

Hope that you find someone to release Power on vinyl!  Love it!

When lockdown's over  I'll tattoo that cover artwork

It would be good but I have no control over the Album Power by Atlantic.  I just played Guitar Solos and some Guitar Parts on the Album. I have no idea where all the royalties go for the album.

    • I wonder what control they have over the releases? That have promoted the BMG individual releases. The 2009 reissues were by original label, EMI. And this boxset seems weird being issued by Cherry Red. And I have not seen the bands social media promote it at all. I wonder if the reason the BMG ones were lacking in the bonus tracks from the previous reissue was EMI holding onto the rights, but have now allowed Cherry Red to release them. I know EMI used to be the distributer for Cherry Red, so they may be more forthcoming with the material.  
    • Yep, cracking indie release of which there are so many but this one is actually really good.
    • I have been a Band Maid fan since their early days (2015) as I really don't mind foreign vocals as long as the music is great, but I always kinda avoided Babymetal as I saw a video of them once and really wasn't impressed with the kiddy vocals, so never gave them another chance. Fast forward to now and on the back of the collab with Electric Callboy I have decided to give them a go. I thought they had a huge discography as they have like 25 albums, but on closer inspection it is only four studio albums and 21 live albums. As I am not a fan of live albums anyway, I decided to buy the four studio albums as they are all quite cheap. Have to say there music is a mixed bag, but overall really enjoying a lot of it. Not sure if I just picked the wrong song to start with, or if it is just that I have adapted more due to getting into a lot of weird and wonderful foreign bands over the last few years, but I am glad I finally gave them a proper go. Have to say, if this song was sung in English I think they would have a lot of fans on here  
    • Babymetal - Metal resistance Babymetal - The other one
    • Enjoyed their last cd "Human Nature" remind me of a mellower Black Stone Cherry, similar to Little Caesar.
    • BlackRain - Hot Rock Time Machine Lee Aaron - Bodyrock
    • Now theres a blast from the past  I'm lucky enough to possess 
    • Another i'm still awaiting the arrival of...same day release/delivery my arse Amazon  Still this is sounding like their best release thus far...they are gaining and getting better...although I did enjoy the last few albums also...but the sound/production from this one is excellent.
    • Still awaiting mine to arrive...should've been on Weds  or according to my order that was the case anyway
