  • Rauhoittavaa rautalankaa !!!

  • As good as the original, well done!

  • Beautiful played :D you can hear it's passionate

  • Just listen to Santo and Johnny extended version if you think this is good. The originals are usually best!!

  • @thimblerig this actually the first "different" version I've heard, most are the same as Johnny and Santo

  • je craque....tout simplement.

  • @25Metamorphose

    Salut ! tu craques pour les images ,ou simplement pour la musique de ce groupe formidable LES SHADOWS ?

  • Beautiful song and a beautiful touch to the strings!!!

  • here's one i recognize

  • i love almost ALL shadows music

  • Just a beautiful song ............

  • Faltou só o Brasil! As praias brasileiras mereciam figurar entre essas!

  • @jacsalgado Concordo com vc ...

  • super shadows que de tout bon musicien tout ma jeunesse

  • Just superb. Johnny and santo's version is so good but this is a supreme version. Trust Hank and the shadows to put their stamp on this and create the best version !

  • szép

  • Maravilhoso.

  • Wonderful sound.

    Oh dear I remember it in 1961 and that's a long, long time ago.

    Music is a different world away now but there is some excellent sounds and artists today.

  • Is this the original version by the shadows?...Wow! very noice!!!!!

  • the dislike button is useless on this kind of music

  • I was 12 years old and living in Japan when this came out. (My dad was in the Air Force) I remember the original Santo & Johnny version very well. This version is just as good as the original.

    Every Saturday night at 8 Armed Forces Radio had a show called "the Top Twenty" and they would play top hits from back home.

  • una de mis canciones faboritas solo escuchar la melodia me traslada hasta muchos atras donde di un mal paso en mi vadapero todo tiene una recompenza great the sahdows

  • If you're not a dedicated Shads fan, then I guess  you're among those three that dislike this. How sad,.

  • dit is en blijft één van de mooiste uitvoeringen van dit nummer.Was op de begravenis van mn neef te horen,was net als ik een shadows fan van het eerste uur en dit vond hij ook één van de mooiste nummers.

  • Perfekcja, brawo

  • This is such a lovely, dreamy song & the pictures transport me to some remote island, somewhere......

  • Thanks for the beautiful song.

  • Wonderful performance

  • Veel herinneringen aan vroeger toen ik nog jong was.

    Heerlijk om naar te luisteren. Zo romanties.

    Tosca v.D

  • Les autres versions sont belles aussi ( Les Ventures...etc),mais c'est ma préférée.

  •  Un des plus merveilleux instrumentaux au monde ...... par le meilleur guitariste de la planète ... Hank B MARVIN ....

  • Hank Marvin's guitar playing is like nobody else's. It is sweet, subtle and powerful all at the same time. Once you hear it, it haunts you forever (in a good way)!

  • la zorra!!!

  • so... now we know where modest mouse got their sleepwalking song from. i've just found out about these guys from researching "The Dandy Warhols", Totally worth the time it took me to find out about The Shadows.

  • Thank you for posting the video, and mostly, the pictures are beautiful! And, thanks for putting on there where the pics are from!!

  • The Shadows version is much smoother and listenable compared to the clunky, bare, squeaky whining of the original. It has more fill and depth.

    This is the way it should be played - interpreted properly with a Strat!

  • santo and johnny s version still can never be duplicated For 1 every other version has trouble mastering it note for note. Secondly they cant match its mystery eerieness and thirdly vant duplicate its warmth and sexiness. People can draw comparisons all they want but this is simply incomparably the best.

  • Escuchen la De satriani.. es muy buena!, sacando la original obvio!..

  • Superb, but I think the original by Santo & Johnny still has the magic!

  • @thimblerig The steel pedal guitar has much more colour, but this still sounds beautiful and can be played on a regular guitar which is much easier.

  • This turned out to be a real easy song to transcribe to guitar. Both lead and rhythm.

    A good song to learn just for fun. Takes a while to setup the effects. 

  • Es la mejor, mas completa version , que se puede oir ,no hay otra, son palabras mayores, The Sadows, tienen sello propio dentro de la musica instrumental, NO HAY NADIE, MEJOR QUE tHE SADOWS, QUE LA VIRGEN OS GUARDE POR LA FELICIDAD Y PAZ QUE NOS DEJAIS CON CADA INTERPRETACION, OS QUIEROOOOOOOOOOOOOOO........

  • Muy bien ejecutado. Añoro la música de The Shadows y la copiabamos para despés ejectarla en los salones de bailes de los años 60 en la ciudad de Sevilla (España)

  • Hi

    A very nice rendition ,an a nice collection of pic:-)

    best regards

    Hans - Studio Fenderstorm

  • This song just takes you away to a serene tropical place!

  • Great sound!

  • I don't think I sleepwalk... but if I would ... I would goright down to Manly Beach under the moonlight and danceby the crushing waves that slowly disappears in the white sand... tks. for these gorgeous photos... 5stars

  • sleepwalk is one of my most favorite instrumental i like it very much

  • this song makes me cry, it was played while my grandfather was brought into the chruch. ( dead ) =(

  • you are right Mr Spartica ... nice song though

  • eating food to this song is nt recommendable. i almost fell asleep. hahaahhaa

  • Uma das mais belas gravações dos Shadows,c/ Jim Adamns no baixo(formação original-inicial,a melhor de todas)Infelizmente não há um vídeo dos Shadows de qualidade apresentando Sleep walk.Valeu a montagem........

  • Owesome!!!!!!!!!!

  • Sorry Santo & Johnny, you're good at this one but HBM is GREAT. !!!!

  • listen to that tone. . what a group and what a guitarist. HBM

  • Certainly, there's no comparison between the sustain of the slide vs. the sustain of the bare fingers w/ delay (echo). This boils down to personal preference. The slide produces warmly longer notes while Hank's slow hand gives out haunting melodies from a mountain top. Thanks for posting.

  • My god Hank Marvins tone is just lush, it's to die for, i wish when i played i had a tone that had it's own voice, apart from the the shadows are ace, pity they don't do ewt now

  • Real nice cover!

  • This one is one of the most beautiful instrumental pieces I've ever heard. Most of the others (Cavatina, Apache) are also of `The Shadows', the best instrumental group ever. Long life to The Shadows!

  • original is from santo & johnny but this rendition of the shadows is nice

  • sorry mate . I compared both tunes at the same time. there is no comparison between the original by santo and jhonny and the shadows version.

  • the best versions thank you the shadows

  • this is fresh but the original can never be beat

  • however, this version comes much more closer to the feelings of pop era!

  • haunting brialliance

  • magnifique

  • this is absolutely brilliant

    rock on the shadows. best instrumental group ever

  • It is missing some Angra dos Reis islands.

  • i really like this version

  • i know this was originaly done by santo and johnny in 1959. but hanks ghostly echo sound on this shadows version from 1961 is by far way better in my mind beautiful and bruce.s rythum playing
