New Shoes Blues Band https://www.newshoesbluesband.com/ Dan Gorrell, Vocals & Guitar (founding member) Steve Schaefer, Vocals & Bass (founding member) Steve Lopez, Vocals & Harmonica, Sean Donoghue "Crossroads" Cream Producer Felix Pappalardi Track 10 on Wheels of Fire 1968 “Crossroads” is a song originally by Robert Johnson, written in 1936. It’s a blues track, and the most popular iteration is by Cream. It was the first single of their Wheels of Fire record in 1968 and featured a live video of the track. A portion of Johnson’s “Travelling Riverside Blues” also exists in the song. The lyrical intent has been debated over the years, with some saying it signifies selling your soul to the devil, while Samuel Charters, noted Blues historian, see’s a racial angle, with references to racial segregation in the second verse. Clapton has used the name “Crossroads” repeatedly in his life since this release. His Greatest Hits release was titled Crossroads, and he created the Crossroads Guitar Festival in 2004, to help benefit his Crossroads Centre, an institution to help with drug addiction in Antigua. Crossroads Lyrics [Verse 1] I went down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees Down to the crossroads fell down on my knees Asked the Lord above for mercy, "Take me, if you please" [Verse 2] I went down to the crossroads tried to flag a ride Down to the crossroads tried to flag a ride Nobody seemed to know me, everybody passed me by [Verse 3] Well, I'm going down to Rosedale, take my rider by my side Going down to Rosedale, take my rider by my side We can still barrelhouse, baby, on the riverside [Guitar Solo] [Verse 4] Going down to Rosedale, take my rider by my side Going down to Rosedale, take my rider by my side We can still barrel house, baby, on the riverside [Guitar Solo] [Verse 5] You can run, you can run tell my friend boy Willie Brown Run, you can run tell my friend boy Willie Brown And I'm standing at the crossroads believe I'm sinking down [Spoken Outro] Uh, Eric Clapton lead, uh, vocal
