Fully agree with you, there will never be a group like the Shadows ever. They're the greatest, match made in heaven. ❤❤❤❤ Idol for life 🎼🎶🎸 bless you for entertaining us with the best of music. 💯% 👏👏👏📀📀📀
When was 16.I used listen to 9.00pm broadcast on my transistor radio. Hanks Fender guitar was one of the most fabulous sounds I've ever heard. As an instrumental group they will always be the forerunner & Best for me
My lovely late husband Bernard Wakefield loved the Shadows and on the day of his funeral I played Going Home by The Shadows for him but it meant so much to.me too I just was an emotional wreck when I played it on his onward voyager journey. I still cry when this plays..... Absolutely awesome piece of music
What a fabulous piece of music, played here by one of the very best bands. These guys are absolutely amazing and their output over the decades (even with some changes in line up) has been prodigious. Thanks guys for all the fantastic sounds you have given us to enjoy. Love this.
I make no claims as to expertise on this subject, but I'm now coming up to 74 years old and I still rate the Shadows as the greatest instrumental group of all time. Vocals not so much, but instrumentally they're ace!
43 agree, the shadows was all my father listened to when I was a kid and they're so unique, mark Knopfler said he idolised Hank as a kid and still wishes he could get a guitar to sound like Hank can, that's some high praise
And I’m just starting to learn and play their music (68 yrs old) I’m on my 4th tune and wishing I started a long time ago instead of playing the tennis racket 😂😂 in the bedroom while listening to the record player
15 when I first heard them in 1960, probably on radio Luxembourg. Love their sound, never tire of listening to them, no other band like them just brilliant.
I've been following the Shadows since the early 1960s. Boasting the skill of the soloist Hank Marvin is too easy: he was a teacher for many self-taught guitarists. Here, on the other hand, I want to exalt the virtues of drummer Brian Bennet and Bruce Welch on rhythm guitar, who have always played without excess, in order to leave the soul and touch of the soloist in absolute evidence. To them my great esteem.
Hank Marvin. I' am nearly 70 by now and I think its about time to give my opinium. You and your band play the most agreable music ever in all those years! Thank you.

I saw them live back in the late 80s here in Palmerston North, NZ (believe it or not). They were simply spellbinding and I've been a huge fan of theirs ever since they started. They were the benchmark for many instrumental groups.
I have listened to the shadows for the past 55 yesterday never missed a Yr they keep me feeling young, this tune will play me out from the departure lounge when the time comes to say I'm going home to my maker.
Great performance and a great cover version of Going home. Musicians with style, elegant vision and behavor. You are wonderful boys even at this age. You are unique.

Bravo au groupe "The Shadows" qui a su nous faire rêver et merveilleusement danser pendant des décennies...
Sono d'accordo, che qualunque brano suona Hank , con le sue dita , diventa un gioiello.... In questo caso non è del brano del Shadows , ma di Mark Knofler, e l' esibizione della chitarra elettrica di Hank , si supera l' originale . Lui con la Sua chitarra , parla e carezza , come fosse una donna .Non ci sentiamo a d'osso.
Iconic instrumental music lives on forever as the Shadows will always be the number one in instrumental music . Very soft soft and pleasing to you . Congratulations :Shadows your music will live on for Eternity !!
Hank Marvin - wirtuoz gitary a cały The Shadows gra wspaniale mimo,że te kawałki są równie stare jak ja o ile jeszcze nie starsze.Super muza - tak trzymać panowie.
In the 60s, they were very successful in Italy and, above all, they taught many self-taught guitarists; there was no count of the bands playing their songs. Really good, and besides, the touch of the soloist Hank Marvin is unique!
Hank hoy por hoy es el mejor primera guitarra del mundo en su genero, indiscutible su alta precisión y perfección depurada y exacta, tiene la belleza de sus interpretaciones en sus mágicas manos.
Dire Straits “Alchemy”,live album version,with the guitar and saxophone duet at the end is,in my humble opinion,the most awesome version ever! You can’t beat the sound of a live audience interacting with the band! Goosebumps,every time.
Well, that is not quite true, is it? Mark Knopfler wrote the piece and performed it, so I'd say The Shadows are not the only ones who could give us something like this. But you're right in the respect that it's a great group with Hank Marvin as leader.
GOOD. But nowhere near as good as BERT WEEDON. BERT WEEDON taught the shadows, and a multitude of guitarists down the years have benefited from learning from him. FACT. Never heard of BERT WEEDON?. JUST GOOGLE IT.

I'm 65 now and this beauty brings me awesome good memories,a time of a good world

Hoping to play this at my dad's funeral aged 72 my dad loved the shadows. ✌️
When my dad died last year , we played a medley of Shads tracks at his funeral. Wonderful Land, Apache, etc.. Still raw.
I am n Shadows follower from the age of 12. A previous fan said they just are the best and I agree.. I am with the grace of our God 74 years old
After many years of listning to the shadows, they are still the best by far.
I've always been a shadows fan since they started playing, got most of their music,first album, OUT OF THE SHADOW, fab.
The Shadows were an unknown entity in the USA but I’m so glad i finally found their music here on youtube. Love the sound
Welcome aboard
In the 60s, they were very successful in Italy and, above all, they taught many self-taught guitarists; there was no count of the bands playing their songs. Really good, and besides, the touch of the soloist Hank Marvin is unique!

In all the years I've listened to the Shadows, I've never been dissapointed
There are so many things into todays Britain, that make me ashamed, but this restores my faith.
I love to hear them play, over and over again,gread artist and perfect gitar players, SUPER for the SHADOWS from out Spain
Conheci Os Shadows quando tinha 12 anos e até hoje com os meus 71 anos continuo sendo um grande fã deles.
You'd the Man Hank, just beautiful ❤❤
Love this, one of my favourite pieces of music by the shadows. Hank Marvin Great musician.
Awesome 👏
They have a soulful voice!

Just the most amazing band ever, with such a unique sound I always loved them since I was a kid and this was my favorite piece. Thanks for sharing

I'was 7 y old, if i heard first time The Shadows. Now i'm 47. Great music!!!
Loved them in 60's 'll love 'em forever!
It’s a big call, but probably my favourite bit of music ever. The way Knopfler used it in the film “ local Hero” was just brilliant.
Magnifique 👍Formidable ✌
Great melody ! Only the Shadows could give us something like this ! Awesome !
