Don’t Answer Me (Guitar Instrumental)

“Don’t Answer Me“ is a 1984 song by the Alan Parsons Project from the album Ammonia Avenue. It reached number 15 on the Billboard charts in the United States and was the final Billboard Top 20 hit for the group. It also reached number 58 in the United Kingdom, the group’s highest chart placing in their native country. Instead of the art rock and progressive rock sounds for which Alan Parsons was well-known, Parsons crafted “Don’t Answer Me“ in the style of Phil Spector and his Wall of Sound technique. Eric Woolfson, the co-writer, handled lead vocals on the single, with Mel Collins providing a saxophone solo with a “soothing yet destitute wail“.
