Hank Marvin - Gold

[Pottel]

pretty sure Hank did not sell 150 million records or toured the world in front of literally millions of excited audience members.

Granted but wasn't stating wealth I was meaning popularity although you have to agree Hank is probably just as well known if not more than MK worldwide....

I honestly doubt that

Haha, well I don't!!!!

Forgot to add, can you tell me who has spent more weeks at #1 except Elvis and The Beatles??? Yes that's right Hank/The Shadows!!!

What I mean was, Hank was never brothers in arms famous

I think it's difficult for our non UK friends to appreciate just how big Cliff and The Shadows are here.

Not only that, Hank is literally part of the language.

MK will sell more records and tickets, but the name Hank Marvin is unquestionably better recognised here than Mark Knopfler.

Hank and the Shadows are History, they had a deep impact on many many people, worldwide.

Yeah, I didn't though.

Here in the UK Hank is not only famous as a guitarist (cited as an influence by Page, Gilmour, May, The Beatles) but his name has entered the language. People say they are Hank Marvin if they are "starving".





Kids use his name every day but don't know who he is...
