[RJFSHADOWSMUSIC]

RIP Jet, you true legend.

I think this is one of the best tunes ever!

[KEEPONROCKINKID]

He always had a laugh with his fans throughout his illness. RIP

Why did you leave the group, Jet?

Greetings from an old fan in DK

I've still got the 45r.p.m. of this! 'Driftin' was the 'B' side...and they were, of course, still 'The Drifters' in those days.

I have been led to believe that the great Jet Harris was the first to play an electric bass live over here which created a lot of interest in the instrument.Previously the 'coffin' double bass was the order of the day.A brilliant player and a top bloke to boot I hear.

I have met Jet a few times and you do hear correctly a very nice modest guy. What a combination Jet and the Rapiers make. Brilliant video.

I love Shadows music,particularly when Jet was part of the setup.Following his partnership with the late great Tony Meehan,he seemed to disappear from public view.They say that you should never meet your hero but I would love to see Jet play live.Thank you so much for being in touch.

Am sure Jet had the first six string electric bass in the uk,what a sound he got out of it,excellent guy as well.

I love this number by Jet. In fact we called our band "Jet Black" in recognition of it. I've rated it awesome. Please check out some of our clips, ie.

Jet Black - Sleepwalk,

Jet Black - The Savage

Jet Black - Apache.

We are based in Perth W.A.
