Dappled Posted June 29, 2006 Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 Glad All Over brings back memories from school dances when I was 15 or so. Every local band seemed to have that song on their repertoire. And a lot of Shadows songs of course! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted June 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 Dappled, the magical guitars of Hank Marvin and Bruce Welch of The Shadows couldn't get them a solo Hit in the U.S. They only had a couple of minor ones there backing Cliff Richard. But America liked the Dave Clark Five ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dappled Posted June 29, 2006 Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 Darryl, Cliff and the Shadows visited our little town (20000 souls or less) in summer 1963 and I was there. They were absolutely great and I saved the ticket for years and years! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted June 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 I would have loved to have seen The Shadows. I had/have somewhere just about every single they released in their golden years. Wonderful Land was the #1 British Hit of the 60s, ahead of The Beatles, Stones, Elvis, etc. :guitar: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted June 29, 2006 Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 The discussion elsewhere about Screamin' Jay Hawkins got me thinking about Arthur Brown. Here's a 'snowy' Fire video. I love this song... Here is the video of "I put a spell on you", Screaming Jay Hawkins... I posted it somewhere else too, it must be on its thread... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
