The Shadows at 60

As a die hard Shadows fanatic I was over the moon a programme had been made to highlight their 60 years...No mention of MK though..

Yes, it was a good watch, I was surprised there was nothing from Mark, great to hear from David Gilmour though.

if you do not look at the video, sometimes Hank sounds a bit like Mark...
Gilmour looking strikingly handsome, and i am saying this as a healthy straight male, lol..

[qjamesfloyd]

I agree(me too) but Gilmour has always been hansome, he did some modeling in the 60's

Yes indeed, Hank does sound like MK at times. They are both very laid back in their ways too...
And yes, Gilmour looks amazing....

Had a chance to watch the documentary, the story is amazing of course. I just love how similar old successful people look and feel. I've met a couple of those types in my lifetime and they were just like Hank — riding a nice car, 100% chill, kind, humble, down to earth, and absolutely happy. You would wish a life like this to anybody, though it has a lot to do with luck. So I wish luck instead

It's very good indeed. The Shadows and I guess Cliff to a degree have really never let fame dictate....
