Lol, It's Hank Marvin one of the greatest rock and roll guitarists ever. A guitarist whose style of playing has been copied over the years by many of my friends and relatives.
You have to be joking, they just toured Australia as part of the 50th Anniversary, had hit singles for another 15 years and Album hits up to the present. What do you want? The Beatles were great but are gone, they also don't get any better by putting down other acts.
@BeatleSongPlayer You need to do some research, they are still going, have the occasional hit and for at least ten years AFTER this were one of the top bands around. Don't put them down, educate yourself instead.
According to British Hit Singles & Albums (19th edition), The Shadows are the third most successful UK charted hit-singles act, behind Elvis Presley and Cliff Richard.
Just got back from Mauritius. Well, The Rage Band were playing this song and I couldn't help myself but Rockin'n Rolling until I found myself singing and dancing on stage... with them
This was'nt bad but the pulsating piano, the sparse drums, the thumping upright, the twangy guitar solo, and oh yeah, those BONGOS! I prefer Bobby Freeman's original.
great to see this video,first time I`ve seen it,good to see Jet Harris in the line up,must have been recorded just before he left.what show did it come from?
Good thing none of the guitar players bothered to finger sync the solos. You wouldn't want music to get on the way of such marvelous dance number. Two to the left, one to the right ...
It looks to me that from 0:46 to 1:11 all the great sounds of the sixties are squeezed into a few seconds. Amazing! Cliff and Hank are so great artists
I'm not a great of fan of Cliff (preferred Billy Fury), but my mum has been a great fan since her teenage years (gonna email this to her) and this is such a happy clappy song....Hank & the boys were brilliant
holy fucking shit u dont no who ramones are?!!?!?1 search their the creaturs of sound of punk rock joey ramone the lead singer is ounk godfather! their legends go quickly and search their music !
My favorite is the Bobby Freeman original made in the 50's. Check it out on Youtube. Type Bobby Freeman Do you wanna dance. No actual film of Freeman though, just animation. Still the best.
This dates between Sept 1961 when Tony Meehan left and April 1962 when Jet Harris left.Footage of this line up of Marvin Welch Harris Bennett is quite unusual.
@simonlilley Looking at the video, it gives a clue as to maybe why they left. ------ Three 'stars; at the front & two 'nobodys' at the back! ------ Just like Status Quo! Not very nice!
@namigw I like how you made the distinction between 'popular music' and music in general. Popular music really was much better, as it should be, Rock and Roll was relatively fresh and exciting. Most commenters on youtube fail to make this important distinction and generalize modern music as being generally terrible. It really isn't, you just have to look for the new bands that are actually great because mainstream radio sure isn't going to play them.
maybe shown in 1963 but thats jet harris on bass so probably recorded in 1962 just before jet left. Amazing clip though, its just fantasic for all us cliff and shadows fans that people have all this footage as so little remains... espechally the early stuff... on film, and little is released on video/dvd. Thanks for the posting

I have a doubt: Was Cry For A Shadow a tribute or a parody?
I ask this because most of the press treat Cry For A Shadow as a parody.
However, I know The Beatles covered Move It at the end of the 60´s.

anybody who thinks the beatles were not influenced by the shadows is daft.
epstein took the beatles to see them .hows that not influencing them .
i love the beatles but as musicians they were not in the same league as the shadows.
as for cry for a shadow it was a tribute not an insult .
there was a curious epidemic started in the 60s namely 10.000 instrumental groups. . who didnt want to be TONY MEEHAN .
HANK MARVIN . BRUCE WELCH. OR JET HARRIS.
