Im nearly 60 and I have never seen this guy miss a note. I have heard it said that simple bright clean music is the very hardest to do as there Nowhere to hide. Shadows music is the epitome of this. Im glad you guys made a bunch of cash using hard work dedication and skill enriching the lives of millions for decades.
It is NOT just "classical music". :) We were all taught in music school the development of musicianship, that is being able to play "musically" is developed first and foremost, through being able to play a single line melody with as much grace as a singer would sing it. Especially with slower tunes, ballades, etc. Classical and jazz guitarists learn this "the hard way". :) There is no disputing that what Hank plays is technically simple and easy to learn. But from the original recordings 60 years ago, to ALL of the films on YT in which he plays these pieces....he NEVER deviates from what he has done and always plays these songs the same way - -and with absolute precision. You are correct....people do not comprehend how good someone has to be to be THAT "consistent". Excellent observation. :)

When I first heard The Shadows in 1959 I had just started senior school and I was hooked on that special sound and as I get into my dotage my love for The Shadows is still there it has never waned God Bless Them for giving me and so many others over the years so much pleasure.
From Italy: In the 60s I learned to play the guitar, both solo and rhythm, thanks to the Shadows. Besides, Hank taught many guitarists who later became famous; his playing, his touch of the strings, are inimitable and unmistakable. Even today the music of the Shadows arouses emotions. Thanks forever.
The older you get the better you get. Thank you shadows you just brought Cliff Richard and my youth days back. I feel young again. Love from Mauritius.
Такая светлая музыка. Какие исполнители, спокойно с достоинством. Браво. Впервые услышала где то в 1972. Года три назад случайно нашла в интер теперь слушаю регулярно.

@hslee7253, sorry to disagree with you but in music, specially instrumental, there's not perfection just good or excellent interpretations cos each version it's good on their own. Remember everyone is different and what is good for you, it could not be for other, so...
Merci à vous, du fond du coeur, Hank, Bruce, Brian. Vous avez enchanté et accompagné ma vie depuis 1964 . Mes 18 ans se sont envolés depuis longtemps mais vos mélodies sont toujours aussi présentes et accompagnent bien souvent mes parenthèses nostalgie. Merci encore.
The Shadows' sound is impeccable. They are all superb musicians and Hank Marvin has defined their sound with his use of the tremolo constantly in his right hand as he plucks the guitar strings. So perfectly clear and artful. He is wonderfully supported by the precision of the others. This band is all about precision timing. Brilliant.
Started listening to the Shadows in early 1960's.and 60 years later they're still as good as ever.No band has stood the test of time like they have.Magnificent! So many great memories of my youth,🙂
I love it. These old guys have been doing this for about 60 years. They're famous. They dont need the money. THEY PLAY BECAUSE THEY LOVE TO! That is a Musician.
Well, I gave this a BIG THUMBS UP, because I'm a child of the 60's growing up with this stuff. This music is what started the big change in music from what it was and post war and into the 50's. A change that was only going to grow from here; And it did! We have 15 times more thumbs up than thumbs down. I THINK it's because the thumbs up people are like me and totally appreciate where this music came from. The Thumbs down people, I'm sure are music loving guys and gals but they're from a different era and they don't fully understand the evolution of music like the Shadows began and what grew from here. The thumbs up guys and gals are the lucky ones because we lived these times and loved every minute of it. My view, I've lived and loved every minute...Thanks to The Shadows.
bil haley started the change in music in the 1940's. His 1st record came out in 1943 and is considered the 1st rock'n'roll record ever made. It was a mix of the big band sound and country music that became known in the 50's as rock'n'roll. Rockabilly started in the mid 50's and is often mistaken for rock'n'roll as its simular but based on country and blues mixed together which is what Elvis actualy recorded. All of Elvis early stuff was rockabilly not rock'n'roll. The shads started out as the drifters in the mid 1950's and were a vocal group not instramental. They became the backing group to cliff richard. His 1st record has cliff and the drifters on the lable but as a US group was called the drifters they had to change their name to the shadows a name they came up with outside a pub when they were trying to think up a new name. They were sat in the shadow of a tree which is where they got the name from. They were already a big name before they became know as the shadows in the UK doing live concerts but not making records. They became more famous as the backing group for cliff richard and thats when they got a record contract for themselves. On some of their albums they have got recordings of them singing as well as playing. mary anne, and dont make my baby blue, being 2 of them.
The younger generation doesn’t understand what a musical instrument is , that’s what the problem is. They think it comes out of a computer. They also don’t realise how long it takes in time and practice to master these instruments. I think it’s called ignorance. Sorry to be so blunt but that’s it.
I am a 78 year old Canadian Lady and I have always loved these gentlemen since I was a young girl they are the best . who else could fill a huge stadium with instrumental music
Absolutely magnificent, they have got to be one of the greatest bands of all time. Loved them when I was a young boy and they still send shivers down my spine, bring back the 50's 60's music today's music is second rate.
Música muy limpia , transparente que hace recordar personas , lugares , mi esposo cuando éramos muy jóvenes ( aproximadamente 50 años ) compro un dísco pero no eran : las sombras ,quienes tocaban se llamaban los Indios Tabajaras, y si eran como indios pero no recuerdo si eran de la selva de Brazil o por ahí en un país ,de Sudamérica ellos encontraron un avión caído entre la selva entre lo que encontraron fueron unas guitarras , un Radio y así fue como ellos escucharon la música con guitarras y aprendieron a tocar solos sin que nadie les diera lecciones de guitarra , alguien , algún turista los escucho , la portada del disco que teníamos estaban ellos ataviados con vestimentas y maquillados tal como era su Comunidad Indígena

Wow, so many memories of my younger years, I actually love and appreciate them more now as I realise what great musicians they are, only improving (if that's possible) with age and experience. I saw them live (with Cliff) at the London Palladium in the early 60s, my first time at a theatrical musical performance and was blown away. I would go anytime to see them live again, if they still perform.
Los mejores del rock instrumental. La primera vez que los escuché fue cuando tenía 10 años por un disco de Vinyl que tenía mi mamá que en paz descanse, traía la de "te veré en mi batería" desde entonces empecé a buscar más rolas de ellos. Ahora tengo 42 años y me sigue gustando mucho sus rolas. Ojalá y vinieran a México, que Dios los bendiga.
Been a Shadows since 14 years old now 76 never tire of their music met Bruce face to face when I was a page boy in Caledonian Hotel Edinburgh couldn’t speak remember he wore leather jeans in 1961!!
As usual the brilliant Hank Marvin, the best in the world. Hank how do you make it look so easy. ? The best of the best guitarists by a country mile. So clear so distinctive sound. You just can't buy it. It's God given talent.
Tình yêu của tôi dành cho ban The Shadows vẫn nguyên vẹn như thuở ban đầu vào đầu thập niên 60. Tôi nay đã qua tuổi "...thất thập cổ lai hy." nhưng mỗi khi nghe lại ban nhạc The Shadows trình diễn tôi thấy như mình trở về thơ ấu của mình vậy. Mỗi khi tôi muốn trở về tuổi thơ của mình thì tôi vào UA-cam và tìm đến ban The Shadows. You're the best ! I'll never forget you.
I am 77 now, I heard shadows records first time when I was 17. I was so impressed, I started learning guitar. Their popular numbers were Apache, walk don’t run, Zambezi etc. Today, I am trying to teach Apache to my 11 yr old grandson. Hank, my favorite guitarist
What an incredible and unforgettable band one of my favorites when I was a teenager in the 60's. For a short time I had a band and the songs of The Shadows were with which I started my path in music, which was interrupted when I entered university and then I was for more than 40 years in the world of work as a Software Engineer. Now that I am recently retired, I have bought a humble Squier Stratocaster and have started to pick up this beautiful path starting with the songs of this master that is Hank Marvin and his wonderful band. Life is just beginning in my early 70s. Thanks The Shadows for the inspiration.
If you want that sound and that tone you must get a Vox amp! They are using the Vox Ac30. But the smaller Vox amps can make the signature tone as well.
So great to watch and hear people who know what they're doing and seem to enjoy doing it. No histrionics. No tortured guitar solos. No drama.Just confident playing. Assured sonics.
Who else on here loves to hear the sound coming from a Fender Stratocaster? Can’t beat its clarity! Fender forever! Thank you The Shadows🙏 A fanboy from New Zealand 🇳🇿
Sans tomber dans le melo dramatique, quelle époque, quelle musique, quels sons de guitare. Merci pour ces merveilleux moments qui nous ont faits vivre des instants inoubliables, incommensurables, de bonheur, joie, amour, flirts, liberté et respects.
I am 70 now. Loved them when I was 15. And I loved them still. Hank looks better now and is incredibly good now as before. Thank you H ank and Bruce and Brian . You make my day.
I grew up with this music. My dad played all of The Shadows music as a guitarist. I learnt all drumming techniques thanks to this group. Also listened to The Ventures, but my ultimate was The Shadows.
I grew up in the USA with music by the Ventures as well, but when I came to Germany in '61 and first heard the Shadows that was it, I was in the club. A genial group with genial music.
The group is fantastic as a whole, but Hank Marvin is truly a guitar genius....he takes guitar playing to another level and makes it look effortless. His smiles and the look of joy on his face make it obvious he loves what does. He is a treat to our ears.
I can’t imagine any rock band today with the talent to have a concert playing entirely instrumental music. This band is a real gift. Simply amazing!!! 👍👍👍
I heard that even Princess Margareth of the royal kingdom was fan of the shadows in the sixties. No wonder, she hat good taste and so she was fond of them. Bravo Hank Marvin and musicians, even Ben Marvin. You and your music are great. What a treat for us.
People very often praise guitarists like Clapton, Page, Jimi Hendrix, to mention but a few, but Hank Marvin is hardly ever mentioned , but he is a really fine and very talented guitarist in his own right.
that's only because he is different his style is more based on melody then soloing or scale running. his guitar is the singer basically. hank marvin the first guitar hero. my hat goes off to this man and the band. I am a street performer and I play there music and I just started a shadows band aswell. it is real music, music that makes people happy.
@@dionermen842 Best of luck to you and your band mate!![...in the 60's a band was exactly that.... a band.... ...brass!!...we were called "Pop Groups" "Rhythm Groups" "Rock Groups".."Rhythm n' Blues Groups"...but NOT BANDS!]..times change,but I am pleased there are people like you Dion,who still carry on the love of the Shads to the people on the street!
Wow! I have just watched this again and it has taken me back to when I was a sixteen year old boy entrant in the RAF and was entranced by Apache and FBI. I am now 72 and still love the music because it is timeless. Bought myself a Fender Stratocaster when I was 70!!
Approve your thoughts from a far away country like Sri Lanka. The Shadows and the Beatles were our school day musicians, and still enjoy their music even 60 years later.
@@mickbright8454 My brother was born with Spina Bifida and was unable to play sports. So he bought a guitar and taught himself to play all the shadows tracks. He and his wife went to more than a hundred of the Shadows' shows and were invited backstage to meet them. Bruce Welch also visited them at their home in Uxbridge in London. He turned up in his huge Mercedes and almost took out the gate post. My brother would have turned 78 this month but he passed away six years ago. I'm glad to see that you are still playing the Shadows' music.
I've always loved listening to the Shadows instrumental music. And I'm totally impressed by the fans in attendance, and the respect, and staying silent while the songs were played in their entirety.
à "douglashall2141" après l'âge canonique de nos rock😃 stars sur scène qui dansent très prudemment😁 il est essentiel de remarquer un public nombreux, assis sagement, et aussi d'un certain âge😂🙂
These incredibly talented musicians are still at the top of their game and still seem to be enjoying playing together as much as they ever did. They don't come any better than The Shadows. There'll never be another band like them.
Nem lehet nem imádni Őket , a zenéjüket ! 80 évesen is egyből életre kelnek a lábaim a zenéjükre ! Köszönöm , hogy léteznek , hogy ilyen talpalávaló zenéjük van ! Jó egészség , Szeretet és Béke legyen Veletek , Mindenkivel !

Wow, such excellent guitar playing (and drumming) from the entire band now in their 70's. Hank Marvin's smile says it all! Still, remember this band from the early '60s along with Roy Orbison playing on Mom's radio when I was only 5 years old.
Hank, my huge childhood hero, inspired me into playing guitar when I was 7 years old and my first single was Apache. Now, at 68, I am still playing in a band who is doing just great. Thank you Hank and The Shadows. Still get huge chills up my spine when I hear you play! Love you man!
De l instrumental a la guitare qui me touche toujours autant...Présent à leur concert à l Olympia en 1962,avec les copains de mon groupe "The men of Mystery" .Nous avions fabriqué nos guitares électriques nous memes avec l aide de mon père qui m'a conçu un ampli à lampes...Trop bonnes ces années soixante.;; Wonderful Land sonne toujours dans ma tete..L'achat de ma premiere Fender Strato a attendu 30 ans! Merci à tous les fans comme moi de faire durer ces shows par UA-cam.Pierrot
Man that old Strat sure sounds great. Great job. Thanks for reminding us older folks what we been missing. Love it. One of the greatest groups ever. Love you all! God Bless you always!

Tenho 73 anos, comecei a ouvir e dançar estas musicas com a minha miúda, namorada e actual mulher e já passaram mais de 50 anos de casados, nunca me canso de os ouvir, estes velhotes acompanharam-me durante toda a minha vida.
Impressionante! Questi erano artisti che hanno segnato un'epoca ! Maneggiavano la chitarra come se fossero nati insieme a Lei! La platea di ascolto, simile ad un campo di calcio, dà l'idea di quello gli Shadows hanno rappresentato per tutti i veri amanti della musica! Un sentito ringraziamento a coloro che hanno avuto la splendida idea di farci condividere questo immenso piacere ! Giovanni
I saw them at our local cinema in the sixties when Jet Harris was on base and they are still as fantastic today. What other group will last as long. Hank was born to play a Strat and boy how he can play. Thanks for this.
I saw them in Wigan with Jet Harris on bass and tony Mehan (Meehan?) on drums. They had just released "Wonderful Land". Frank Ifield was the supporting act, promoting his release of "I remember you" What a fantastic night that was!
Shadows where a lendendry those good old days...group..though I didnt listen to them ...because we did not have the recordings of those days ..which you have now..tech has gone up greatly..but now with u tube..being an instrumental fanatic...i just got lucky to hear them..There is always a once in a century who play this type of music..many afterwards did..but you can't replace the originals..Guitarists of the present day need to learn from these amazing Group..no frills ..no theatrics..just good world class instrumentals..OLD is GOLD
SUPER, SUPER CHINGONES; YO LOS ESCUCHO DESDE MIS 18 AÑOS, AHORA TENGO 73 AÑOS, Y A LA FECHA LOS SIGO ESCUCHANDO COMO EN MIS TIEMPOS DE MI JUVENTUD DE GRATOS RECUERDOS, DIOS ME LOS SIGA BENDICIEND .... SALUDOS DESDE MI MÉXICO LINDO Y QUERIDO .... Y VIVA MÉXICO CABRONES !!!! 🇲🇽🇲🇽
tengo 36 años y vaya que usted debio pasar buenos tiempos de juventud con estos pedazos de musicos en sus dias, envidia de la buena la verdad debiron ser tiempos demasiado buenos
That was tremendous. The Shadows will always be known as the best of the best entertainers to this day. Thank you for sharing and for the wonderful memories.
All the members of this group are extremely talented musicians and put them together they were unbelievable. I used to listen to all the heavy rock in my younger years but I recently rediscovered the shadows and those guitar licks of Hanks with vibrato and delay keep running through my head. Simply the G.O.A.T instrumental band perhaps just the greatest band there ever was. This is the music that takes you on a journey as it’s so pleasing to listen to. 👍👍👍
Increíble esta banda fue la precursora de todas las demás de lo años sesenta,yo enonces tenía nueve años y para mí empezaba por lo que ha marcado en mi vida de adolescente y juventud.Viva ese tiempo que ha muchos hemos sido felices con sus temas.FABULOSOS!!!
My late father was a Shadows fan, and I grew up with them too, every cassette in the glovebox was the Shadows, he had a white and red strat, he always played the Shadows tunes. Its now mine, maybe I should try and learn to play. It’s been 4 years since he left us, had Wonderful land and the Deerhunter played at the funeral. Miss him every second of everyday but listening to this today has helped. Still tears but tears of joy. Love the Shadows.
Cassettes - ah, those were the days! Rewind them too much to keep listening to your favourite track and you ended up with a chewed up mass of useless magnetic tape! LOL My advice? Get that guitar tuned up and start tinkering with it, learn to play it if you can. But whatever you do, enjoy it and keep on remembering your late father. :-)
Same here my Dad had all of their 45s grew up with them now in the morning I ask Alexa to play their playlist sets me up for the day brilliant memories ❤️🇬🇧
The Shadows is my idol group i enjoy listening their music specially the Apache during my youth days i am now 76 years old still listening to the music of the SHADOWS
First time I saw Hank Marvin was in Jean Michel Jarre Docklands 88 concert. Then, my father told he had "this band called shadows". Been listening since then. This is true music. Simple, well played and with tons of musicality ! A great band.
I'm 30 and have just listened to 26 minutes of pure Guitar gold. Lots of people my age (and younger) are rediscovering this great music as a replacement for the commercial stuff produced now!
Lee Lacey Fully support that..100% Despite my previous neg. comnents. I never criticised the band nor their music, only the idiots making comparative, 'best in the world' comments.
Brilliant just brilliant you have to remind people what the music was like when these guys started they were a revelation then and it's stood the test of time.

They are an absolute joy to listen to Live. Their utter professionalism is unsurpassed. The reworking of Savage from the original is fantastic. I continually revisit this 2313 concert, it's an absolute tonic and a chance to wallow in nostalgia. I remember the Sixties and I was there.
Grandes Músicos, escuela para muchos aficionados como yo, los admiro y han marcado toda una época músical instrumental, que hoy se echa de menos. verdaderos Maestros, muchas felicitaciones desde Chile.

Well, I gave this a BIG THUMBS UP, because I'm a child of the 60's growing up with this stuff. This music is what started the big change in music from what it was and post war and into the 50's. A change that was only going to grow from here; And it did! We have 15 times more thumbs up than thumbs down. I THINK it's because the thumbs up people are like me and totally appreciate where this music came from. The Thumbs down people, I'm sure are music loving guys and gals but they're from a different era and they don't fully understand the evolution of music like the Shadows began and what grew from here. The thumbs up guys and gals are the lucky ones because we lived these times and loved every minute of it.
My view, I've lived and loved every minute...Thanks to The Shadows.
Allan H . Me too, I had the time of my life.
bil haley started the change in music in the 1940's. His 1st record came out in 1943 and is considered the 1st rock'n'roll record ever made.
It was a mix of the big band sound and country music that became known in the 50's as rock'n'roll.
Rockabilly started in the mid 50's and is often mistaken for rock'n'roll as its simular but based on country and blues mixed together which is what Elvis actualy recorded. All of Elvis early stuff was rockabilly not rock'n'roll.
The shads started out as the drifters in the mid 1950's and were a vocal group not instramental. They became the backing group to cliff richard. His 1st record has cliff and the drifters on the lable but as a US group was called the drifters they had to change their name to the shadows a name they came up with outside a pub when they were trying to think up a new name. They were sat in the shadow of a tree which is where they got the name from.
They were already a big name before they became know as the shadows in the UK doing live concerts but not making records. They became more famous as the backing group for cliff richard and thats when they got a record contract for themselves.
On some of their albums they have got recordings of them singing as well as playing. mary anne, and dont make my baby blue, being 2 of them.
Even though I was born in the 80s, I appreciate The Shadows, they are better then some of these modern bands about
Foxtrotunclecharliekiloing brilliant
The younger generation doesn’t understand what a musical instrument is , that’s what the problem is. They think it comes out of a computer. They also don’t realise how long it takes in time and practice to master these instruments. I think it’s called ignorance. Sorry to be so blunt but that’s it.
I am a 78 year old Canadian Lady and I have always loved these gentlemen since I was a young girl they are the best . who else could fill a huge stadium with instrumental music
Sweet sounds..:)
And I'm in Australia...:)
Absolutely magnificent, they have got to be one of the greatest bands of all time. Loved them when I was a young boy and they still send shivers down my spine, bring back the 50's 60's music today's music is second rate.
Ditto
Música muy limpia , transparente que hace recordar personas , lugares , mi esposo cuando éramos muy jóvenes ( aproximadamente 50 años ) compro un dísco pero no eran : las sombras ,quienes tocaban se llamaban los Indios Tabajaras, y si eran como indios pero no recuerdo si eran de la selva de Brazil o por ahí en un país ,de Sudamérica ellos encontraron un avión caído entre la selva entre lo que encontraron fueron unas guitarras , un Radio y así fue como ellos escucharon la música con guitarras y aprendieron a tocar solos sin que nadie les diera lecciones de guitarra , alguien , algún turista los escucho , la portada del disco que teníamos estaban ellos ataviados con vestimentas y maquillados tal como era su Comunidad Indígena
Именно так.
The Shadows, what a great bunch of guys, brilliant music, head & shoulder's above the rest. What a crowd . Long may they reign supreme.
I grew up listening to the Shadows and I
still love listening to the music nearly 60 years later 🤩🥰
My instrumental journey started from the influence of “The Shadows”. I recently released this song with guitar legend Louie Shelton, I’d love you to have a listen ❤️

Wow, so many memories of my younger years, I actually love and appreciate them more now as I realise what great musicians they are, only improving (if that's possible) with age and experience. I saw them live (with Cliff) at the London Palladium in the early 60s, my first time at a theatrical musical performance and was blown away. I would go anytime to see them live again, if they still perform.
Los mejores del rock instrumental. La primera vez que los escuché fue cuando tenía 10 años por un disco de Vinyl que tenía mi mamá que en paz descanse, traía la de "te veré en mi batería" desde entonces empecé a buscar más rolas de ellos. Ahora tengo 42 años y me sigue gustando mucho sus rolas. Ojalá y vinieran a México, que Dios los bendiga.
Been a Shadows since 14 years old now 76 never tire of their music met Bruce face to face when I was a page boy in Caledonian Hotel Edinburgh couldn’t speak remember he wore leather jeans in 1961!!
Les shadows, ce sont toute mon adolescence. Et soixante ans, après, je les écoute toujours et très souvent. Nostalgie quand tu nous tiens ! ! ! ! !
It was a huge, awesome pleasant surprise to hear these four still playing the melodies I had already forgotten. Thanks a million!!
As usual the brilliant Hank Marvin, the best in the world. Hank how do you make it look so easy. ? The best of the best guitarists by a country mile. So clear so distinctive sound. You just can't buy it. It's God given talent.
Tình yêu của tôi dành cho ban The Shadows vẫn nguyên vẹn như thuở ban đầu vào đầu thập niên 60. Tôi nay đã qua tuổi "...thất thập cổ lai hy." nhưng mỗi khi nghe lại ban nhạc The Shadows trình diễn tôi thấy như mình trở về thơ ấu của mình vậy. Mỗi khi tôi muốn trở về tuổi thơ của mình thì tôi vào UA-cam và tìm đến ban The Shadows. You're the best ! I'll never forget you.
I am 77 now, I heard shadows records first time when I was 17. I was so impressed, I started learning guitar. Their popular numbers were Apache, walk don’t run, Zambezi etc. Today, I am trying to teach Apache to my 11 yr old grandson. Hank, my favorite guitarist
What an incredible and unforgettable band one of my favorites when I was a teenager in the 60's. For a short time I had a band and the songs of The Shadows were with which I started my path in music, which was interrupted when I entered university and then I was for more than 40 years in the world of work as a Software Engineer. Now that I am recently retired, I have bought a humble Squier Stratocaster and have started to pick up this beautiful path starting with the songs of this master that is Hank Marvin and his wonderful band. Life is just beginning in my early 70s. Thanks The Shadows for the inspiration.
Ok
If you want that sound and that tone you must get a Vox amp! They are using the Vox Ac30. But the smaller Vox amps can make the signature tone as well.
So great to watch and hear people who know what they're doing and seem to enjoy doing it. No histrionics. No tortured guitar solos. No drama.Just confident playing. Assured sonics.
Unbelievable, after 50 years, just as good as ever and they can still fill a massive venue such as this one.
Filled to the rafters, so to speak and, well-behaved and appreciative!!! The Spectacular Shadows!!!
The Shadows Forever Young. Absolutely uncontested.
50 ans seulement je me souviens d'eux j'avais moins de 10 ans et j'en ai 66
They have class!!
Who else on here loves to hear the sound coming from a Fender Stratocaster? Can’t beat its clarity! Fender forever! Thank you The Shadows🙏 A fanboy from New Zealand 🇳🇿
Love this Music!:@,J
i agree,Shadows for ever
�👍👍��👍👍a
No te olvides del sonido de los VOX AC30.
The Vox AC30 does its bit, too.
Sans tomber dans le melo dramatique, quelle époque, quelle musique, quels sons de guitare. Merci pour ces merveilleux moments qui nous ont faits vivre des instants inoubliables, incommensurables, de bonheur, joie, amour, flirts, liberté et respects.
I am 70 now. Loved them when I was 15. And I loved them still. Hank looks better now and is incredibly good now as before. Thank you H ank and Bruce and Brian . You make my day.
Same here. First heard them when I was 11. Loved their music for 60 years. God bless 'em all.
Indimenticabili fantastici.
I grew up with this music. My dad played all of The Shadows music as a guitarist. I learnt all drumming techniques thanks to this group. Also listened to The Ventures, but my ultimate was The Shadows.
The greatest instrumental band of all time lead by the genius of Hank Marvin
Inoubliables ! Unforgettable musics !@@johninglott9932
I grew up in the USA with music by the Ventures as well, but when I came to Germany in '61 and first heard the Shadows that was it, I was in the club. A genial group with genial music.
The group is fantastic as a whole, but Hank Marvin is truly a guitar genius....he takes guitar playing to another level and makes it look effortless. His smiles and the look of joy on his face make it obvious he loves what does. He is a treat to our ears.
Fantastische Muziekkanten dierbare herrinneringen aan ! Onvergetelijk ❤🇳🇱🙏🎸🎸🎸🥁👋( April 2022)
Yes, a high level.
The Shadows is the best ,in the world . They have been my favorits since 60,s
I love them since 1963 when watching The Young Ones and Summer Holiday! They’re the best!
Always the best instrumental band on the planet , been a fab since the 60’s
I can’t imagine any rock band today with the talent to have a concert playing entirely instrumental music. This band is a real gift. Simply amazing!!! 👍👍👍
There's lots of post rock instrumental bands that are very good.
❤❤❤❤❤
Well they do sing and harmonise too - and very well!
@Dartgame 340 jhbb
What a great show, fabulous musicians and check out the size of the crowd!!! Thanks for posting this gem!!
Wby there isn't any elbow room in the venue...one guy could not sit still he decided to stand and wiggle! Tbeir music is highly contagious!!!
As a guitarist of 60+ years ... I LOVE that an instrumental group can draw a crowd that big!! FUN city!
I heard that even Princess Margareth of the royal kingdom was fan of the shadows in the sixties. No wonder, she hat good taste and so she was fond of them. Bravo Hank Marvin and musicians, even Ben Marvin. You and your music are great. What a treat for us.
People very often praise guitarists like Clapton, Page, Jimi Hendrix, to mention but a few, but Hank Marvin is hardly ever mentioned , but he is a really fine and very talented guitarist in his own right.
The Best the others follow
hes the best
that's only because he is different his style is more based on melody then soloing or scale running. his guitar is the singer basically. hank marvin the first guitar hero. my hat goes off to this man and the band. I am a street performer and I play there music and I just started a shadows band aswell. it is real music, music that makes people happy.
@@dionermen842 Best of luck to you and your band mate!![...in the 60's a band was exactly that.... a band.... ...brass!!...we were called "Pop Groups" "Rhythm Groups" "Rock Groups".."Rhythm n' Blues Groups"...but NOT BANDS!]..times change,but I am pleased there are people like you Dion,who still carry on the love of the Shads to the people on the street!
@@highpitwilma thats weird because as far as i know my dad always called it a band. I know they where called groups thpugh too..
Wow! I have just watched this again and it has taken me back to when I was a sixteen year old boy entrant in the RAF and was entranced by Apache and FBI. I am now 72 and still love the music because it is timeless. Bought myself a Fender Stratocaster when I was 70!!
Bly me..sounds great..
EW215
I hope you get lots of enjoyment out of your strat
I got my mine for my 50th!...candy apple red standard USA strat.
I have listened to the SHADOWS from day one I just can't forget these guys.
Love their footwork !!! They are unique !!! Will never be seen again !!!
so happy to hear this wonderful memorable music by The Shadows...👍🎹❤️
I don't care what generation you are from. If you can't appreciate the quality of this band you are not a lover of music or the guitar.
Me to
😂
Me to.... ❤❤❤
Approve your thoughts from a far away country like Sri Lanka. The Shadows and the Beatles were our school day musicians, and still enjoy their music even 60 years later.
….so is it …. the best I ever heard…I was Born in 1956 and I love this Musik as Long as I can think… Viele Grüße aus Deutschland
Amazing technic❣ Not only technic for guitars but also drum is wonderful ‼
I have every single Shadows record they ever produced. I'm 74 years old and still enjoy that clean crisp magic sound. THIS is music.
I'm 79 and still playing this great music in my band.
I am from Turkey,ı am still listen them every day half or one hour in a day
This music and the memories attached with it is like looking at one sunset after another....
I had a few Whiskies, my wife came home and the laptop and speakers had us dancing to it again!!
@@mickbright8454 My brother was born with Spina Bifida and was unable to play sports. So he bought a guitar and taught himself to play all the shadows tracks. He and his wife went to more than a hundred of the Shadows' shows and were invited backstage to meet them. Bruce Welch also visited them at their home in Uxbridge in London. He turned up in his huge Mercedes and almost took out the gate post. My brother would have turned 78 this month but he passed away six years ago. I'm glad to see that you are still playing the Shadows' music.
Yes Cliff and the Shadows .
Fantastic .🎉
I am 76, and fantastic memories of all since the
60s .
Hank is magical. What a talent.I can't stop listening to the Shadows.I have all their music in my collection and frequently plays them
Oni są po za wszelkimi kryteriami. Wspaniali, czas się ich nie ima.
Quá tuyệt vời của bạn nhạc Anh thập niên 70
I've always loved listening to the Shadows instrumental music. And I'm totally impressed by the fans in attendance, and the respect, and staying silent while the songs were played in their entirety.
THE AUDIENCE IS ABSOLUTELY AWED AND ENTHRALLED!!!
Cuz they learned manner , our/new generation is not.
Brilliant good music never dies
à "douglashall2141" après l'âge canonique de nos rock😃 stars sur scène qui dansent très prudemment😁 il est essentiel de remarquer un public nombreux, assis sagement, et aussi d'un certain âge😂🙂
Want sleep walk the shadows played at my funeral and queen I was born to love you and Elvis Presley one night with you xxx
These incredibly talented musicians are still at the top of their game and still seem to be enjoying playing together as much as they ever did. They don't come any better than The Shadows. There'll never be another band like them.
Eles são os the shadows
Well my Bestest ChildHood golden gate
Nem lehet nem imádni Őket , a zenéjüket ! 80 évesen is egyből életre kelnek a lábaim a zenéjükre !
Köszönöm , hogy léteznek , hogy ilyen talpalávaló zenéjük van ! Jó egészség , Szeretet és Béke

Eu tbm volto aos meus 15 . Muita saudade.. músicas lindas... Que hoje não ouço mais.
Good memories for you!
What I love about this is the complete simplicity of each individual's playing into a perfect blend of complexity..
Hi
Ozrockerie Yes, you are right. I agree.
#Zrockkerie Beautiful song, sweet memories, great performance
Happy New year and how are you doing today?
My instrumental journey started from the influence of “The Shadows”. I recently released this song with guitar legend Louie Shelton, I’d love you to have a listen ❤️
ua-cam.com/video/MPCfRH-lu1A/v-deo.htmlsi=cc5gd6kxOwWmdEfy
Wow, such excellent guitar playing (and drumming) from the entire band now in their 70's. Hank Marvin's smile says it all!
Still, remember this band from the early '60s along with Roy Orbison playing on Mom's radio when I was only 5 years old.
Bruce how can I ever forget your great rythem & the bassist love you guys right from the 60s.
Hank, my huge childhood hero, inspired me into playing guitar when I was 7 years old and my first single was Apache. Now, at 68, I am still playing in a band who is doing just great. Thank you Hank and The Shadows. Still get huge chills up my spine when I hear you play! Love you man!
De l instrumental a la guitare qui me touche toujours autant...Présent à leur concert à l Olympia en 1962,avec les copains de mon groupe "The men of Mystery" .Nous avions fabriqué nos guitares électriques nous memes
avec l aide de mon père qui m'a conçu un ampli à lampes...Trop bonnes ces années soixante.;;
Wonderful Land sonne toujours dans ma tete..L'achat de ma premiere Fender Strato a attendu 30 ans!
Merci à tous les fans comme moi de faire durer ces shows par UA-cam.Pierrot
Man that old Strat sure sounds great. Great job. Thanks for reminding us older folks what we been missing. Love it. One of the greatest groups ever. Love you all! God Bless you always!

Desde Argentina tengo 75 que hermosos recuerdos que temas esa música llenaba el alma
Tenho 73 anos, comecei a ouvir e dançar estas musicas com a minha miúda, namorada e actual mulher e já passaram mais de 50 anos de casados, nunca me canso de os ouvir, estes velhotes acompanharam-me durante toda a minha vida.
Bingo. I am 72. I know what you are talking about.
Eternal! Love those guys ❤ I'm 66, and hope to listen to them as long as I live or even more...
Mam 77 lat i ciągle Ich słucham! Jesteśmy małżeństwem już 56 lat.
Impressionante! Questi erano artisti che hanno segnato un'epoca ! Maneggiavano la chitarra come se fossero nati insieme a Lei! La platea di ascolto, simile ad un campo di calcio, dà l'idea di quello gli Shadows hanno rappresentato per tutti i veri amanti della musica! Un sentito ringraziamento a coloro che hanno avuto la splendida idea di farci condividere questo immenso piacere ! Giovanni
One of the world's top guitarist makes it look so easy!
A truly experienced English instrumental group! Great professional polished sound. It doesn't get any better. Awesome!
Anthony Joseph Lucchese
Brilliant! They make it look so easy. How I wish they would perform together again, please.
I saw them at our local cinema in the sixties when Jet Harris was on base and they are still as fantastic today. What other group will last as long. Hank was born to play a Strat and boy how he can play. Thanks for this.
I saw them in Wigan with Jet Harris on bass and tony Mehan (Meehan?) on drums. They had just released "Wonderful Land". Frank Ifield was the supporting act, promoting his release of "I remember you" What a fantastic night that was!
I saw this show live and what was most evident was the pure class of the drumming .............right up there with the best.
What year was this concert and where was this? I wish the people that post concerts would put it in the info box.
Shadows where a lendendry those good old days...group..though I didnt listen to them ...because we did not have the recordings of those days ..which you have now..tech has gone up greatly..but now with u tube..being an instrumental fanatic...i just got lucky to hear them..There is always a once in a century who play this type of music..many afterwards did..but you can't replace the originals..Guitarists of the present day need to learn from these amazing Group..no frills ..no theatrics..just good world class instrumentals..OLD is GOLD
Merveilleux, splendid ! Et apaisant, en ces temps troublés, on en a bien besoin...Merci à eux !
SUPER, SUPER CHINGONES; YO LOS ESCUCHO DESDE MIS 18 AÑOS, AHORA TENGO 73 AÑOS, Y A LA FECHA LOS SIGO ESCUCHANDO COMO EN MIS TIEMPOS DE MI JUVENTUD DE GRATOS RECUERDOS, DIOS ME LOS SIGA BENDICIEND .... SALUDOS DESDE MI MÉXICO LINDO Y QUERIDO .... Y VIVA MÉXICO CABRONES !!!! 🇲🇽🇲🇽
BINGO. I am the same age as you. This is OUR MUSIC! Bravo. From Cape Town.
tengo 36 años y vaya que usted debio pasar buenos tiempos de juventud con estos pedazos de musicos en sus dias, envidia de la buena la verdad debiron ser tiempos demasiado buenos
That was tremendous. The Shadows will always be known as the best of the best entertainers to this day. Thank you for sharing and for the wonderful memories.
Thank you sharing such beauty. Unforgettable artists. I saw them in Paris at Olympia but with John Rostill at guitar.
Замечательная группа, музыка просто волшебная, которая никогда не надоест !) Слушаю и восхищаюсь
Oh boy, and what UA ?
What a gift this band has been! So grateful to hear this music performed so flawlessly.
Absolutely. And all the way from 1958....... fantastic
Their music radiates sunshine and joy of life. I have loved them for half a century and I will not stop.
All the members of this group are extremely talented musicians and put them together they were unbelievable. I used to listen to all the heavy rock in my younger years but I recently rediscovered the shadows and those guitar licks of Hanks with vibrato and delay keep running through my head. Simply the G.O.A.T instrumental band perhaps just the greatest band there ever was. This is the music that takes you on a journey as it’s so pleasing to listen to. 👍👍👍
Absolutely brilliant group , I was so privileged to attend their concert many years ago, I never tire of listening to them.
Brillant group, indeed. This music makes me feel well.
Bring back such memories
Increíble esta banda fue la precursora de todas las demás de lo años sesenta,yo enonces tenía nueve años y para mí empezaba por lo que ha marcado en mi vida de adolescente y juventud.Viva ese tiempo que ha muchos hemos sido felices con sus temas.FABULOSOS!!!
Fabulosos. Me suena al estilo de los Pequeniques.
My late father was a Shadows fan, and I grew up with them too, every cassette in the glovebox was the Shadows, he had a white and red strat, he always played the Shadows tunes. Its now mine, maybe I should try and learn to play. It’s been 4 years since he left us, had Wonderful land and the Deerhunter played at the funeral. Miss him every second of everyday but listening to this today has helped. Still tears but tears of joy. Love the Shadows.
Cassettes - ah, those were the days! Rewind them too much to keep listening to your favourite track and you ended up with a chewed up mass of useless magnetic tape! LOL
My advice? Get that guitar tuned up and start tinkering with it, learn to play it if you can. But whatever you do, enjoy it and keep on remembering your late father. :-)
The shadows and that sound are the best every group
Same here my Dad had all of their 45s grew up with them now in the morning I ask Alexa to play their playlist sets me up for the day brilliant memories ❤️🇬🇧
Learn to play the strat now ,before its to late and be with your dad ,all the best Steve.
@@stephenshaw6748 I will Steve.
The Shadows is my idol group i enjoy listening their music specially the Apache during my youth days i am now 76 years old still listening to the music of the SHADOWS
First time I saw Hank Marvin was in Jean Michel Jarre Docklands 88 concert. Then, my father told he had "this band called shadows". Been listening since then. This is true music. Simple, well played and with tons of musicality ! A great band.
I'm 30 and have just listened to 26 minutes of pure Guitar gold. Lots of people my age (and younger) are rediscovering this great music as a replacement for the commercial stuff produced now!
Lee Lacey
Fully support that..100%
Despite my previous neg. comnents.
I never criticised the band nor their music, only the idiots making comparative, 'best in the world' comments.
Bonheur absolu ! Pas besoin de mots... la musique parle d'elle-même ! MERCI !
oui! bonheur absolu dans ce triste monde d'aujourdh'ui,vive the Shadows!! nantes, Stéphane ,64

Brilliant just brilliant you have to remind people what the music was like when these guys started they were a revelation then and it's stood the test of time.

How's it possible that this music still sounds so good after all this time? I'm pleased that the large audience tells me that I'm not alone in my love of The Shadows.
Because good music ever dies. Other examples would be Mozart and Beethoven. Still good after 200 years just like this will be.
Bill Blinky. Most honest praise I have heard for years.
the shadows,simply the best, no other group comes close,after sixty years i will never tire of listening too them
Surely not.
@@blacktiger955i Agree
I am 70 years now…!!!! but I shall wait for them in Heaven to hear them perform in front of Almighty God !!!! Wow!!!
Me, too!
Aleluja! Jay jay!
go listen the Mustangs i think you like that too.
Yes that would great, just hope they saved ?

They are an absolute joy to listen to Live. Their utter professionalism is unsurpassed. The reworking of Savage from the original is fantastic. I continually revisit this 2313 concert, it's an absolute tonic and a chance to wallow in nostalgia. I remember the Sixties and I was there.
Grandes Músicos, escuela para muchos aficionados como yo, los admiro y han marcado toda una época músical instrumental, que hoy se echa de menos. verdaderos Maestros, muchas felicitaciones desde Chile.
