SPEECHLESS! I found out about this group about 3 months ago. I can't stop listen to The Shadows. I'd say... Hank is a miracle. Bruce does a great job as well.
@oddball2036 sorry man but NO NO NO.....you clearly dont understand skills i think...Hank is ok but for sure no Clapton at all...come on man....Oh and yeas i like the shoddows to!!!
@aponcapone clapton was lucky enough like knopler to see and hear hank playing the guitar,a lot of his styles have influenced the greats who came later.So no one can say one is better than the other.They are all good players who respect each other.
no one will ever equal the shadows.i remember them well when they first started they were a sensation over night.record companies couldnt keep up with demand.shops were sold out ,even just 2 hours after a delivery.im 71 now and still enjoy listening to them.thans for bringing these memories backto us.
Modern aint always best. This is poor, poor, poor, and it is due to the lacklustre sound they are pushing out here, and have been since the 80s. After having said that, more recently they have put some of the tub thumping blood and guts back in, and are once again better for it. But the 80s Shads were plagued with this sanitised high production.
that's what I call true music. without heavy distortion or overdrive guitars or powerful voices. humans should keep quiet more often when making music!
My school sports days in South Africa, Durban, Chatsworth would never be complete without a Shadows tune, even Birthdays, Xmas, New Years, Concerts in the streets - Roads 514 & 512
The Shadows are great, but they were not the first. Duane Eddy (Rebel Rouser) and Johnny & The Hurricanes (Red River Rock) played instrumentals before which became very popular around the world. Modern rock guitar instrumentals have mostly defizits in melody and song character. But I love Carlos Santana.
The Shads are the best in the world! The Ventures are good, but the Shads are in a class of their own....Hank is the Master of the Strat guitar! Rock on!
I think we are of one mind about the Shads,one more thing if anyone else on the planet did that footwork they would look corny and old hat but The Shads make it look super cool
sirpeter1946 thank you for the uploads, The Shadows and Ventures are a big hit in our country even today they are still played and always will be the favorite instrumentalists
sorry i cant see a comparison the shads have got a unique sound that no one else can do and get right...if you played lots of diff sounds to most shads fans...they would pick out the shads sounds every time..cant explain why but its unique
I like The Shadows a lot but don't forget The Ventures. I am not saying that the latter are better - just that there is good reason to listen to both of these groups which overlap in some respects.
yes Sir Peter i do have most of their cd's and videos , but i can't find the live cd from this concert and the song in an MP3 version of True Love Ways that i really like .
i was hoping to show this girl who i feel strong for as she loves this type of music and i could win her heart.
@sirpeter1946 I have 3 Burns Cobras, and they are great guitars they look like strats but the pickups are cleaner and sharper. I also have strats and the sound is different, but you can set both up to make great Shadows music. But i will never be as good as Hank and the Shadows, i feel in love with their music 20 years ago and then found Mike Oldfield who is an amazing guitarist, who started influenced by Hank, amazing
@Spankypenguin1 Actually for a long time in the 60's they used Burns with Burns pickups. He also played Burns in recent tours along with his Strat which is fitted with Kinman noiseless pickups.
The Sound of the Shadows has been comming along with me since I was 14 years old. I am now 58 and I will love to listen to them until the last day of my life.
Me again - I wonder how many miles they've done with that famous 'Shadows Walk' over the years! LOL The Shadows! - The best (certainly at what they do, anyway!). :-)
there are so many talented young peoples and if i see ,who commenced my songs,i can see,that also young fans still love the kind of music,shadows performing
They have lost nothing. Damned good.

The shadows were the Cliff richards backing group.. Cliff Richards and the shadows..
Cliff Left the group and most people thought that was the end of the shadows...
but Hank Marvin had better ideas..
they are probably the only Non Singing group to have made it in the world..
Their music is unreal - written and played by Them...
