Johnny,

I loved reading your post about those heady days of R&R in England.

Seems like a lot of those players found out about the music anyway though. Was it those legendary Pirate Radio Stations off shore?

Speaking of The Shadows, In '60, I had a buddy from The Netherlands. We played in a garage band together. He had all these cool records by The Shadows & them w/ Cliff Richard.

So guess what we called our garage band?

Bingo! No. The Shadows. I loved this one tune of theirs called "Blue Star" All these fine, fine, instrumentals.
