And very good Swedish bands
who keep The Shadows sound alive!!!
Hi,my name is Henry and I live in Sweden!
I have been a Cliff and Shad-fan since the
early 60's.That's why I want make a tribute-
page about The Shadows!And all the Swedish Shad
cover bands who keep the sound alive!!!!!!
The Shadows who introduced the Instrumental
era in 1958 were in that time called The Drifters.
But there existed another band in the US with the
same name,so they have to change it.And Jet Harris came up with a new name and as we all know now The Shadows.And all of us who have
followed them over the years knows how famous
they were together with Cliff and on their own as
an Instrumental band!And who doesn't remember
Wonderful Land,Apache,The Stranger,Foot Tapper and my personal favorites Midnight and
Blue Star!So on these pages I'm gone present
very good bands from Sweden who play the music
of the Shadows.The pic is from the first album
and the year is 1961!The original members were
Jet Harris bassguitar,Hank B Marvin on the lead-
guitar,Tony Meehan on the drums and Bruce Welch on the rythmguitar,what a band,WOW!!
In Swedish
And you come to my
favorit bands!!!
