Hope you are all Ok. Did you see this video before?

This video is great. Just one thing that occurred to me though and my facts could be wrong here so I'm searching for confirmation or otherwise but did'nt Brian 'Licorice' Locking play bass on the track Wonderful Land. I thought Jet had departed by then?
Regards Tony

Hi
i remember reading Somewhere That wonderful land Was the last Shadows release
That Jet Played on.
As mentioned Jet Did record A version of Guitar Tango
But the track released Was indeed With Brian locking On Bass.

Several years ago (just before it was rebuilt) I went along to the Floral Pavilion, New Brighton to see Jet Harris + The Rapiers + another 60s solo singer whom I cannot recall. The Rapiers opened with 'Shadoogie' and the Lead Guitarist played it to perfection. Unfortunately Jet Harris came on and spoiled the evening. A little coarse, and at times vulgar, and his playing destroyed any nostalgia I had for him in The Shadows.

Hi Pedro,
I wasn't at the show you mentioned,but I was at eight or nine Shadowmanias and in my view Jet was the star of the show. He cracks jokes and entertains,but vulgar? - maybe in Mary Whitehouse's opinion but I suspect few would agree. I was fortunate enough to spend a weekend in his company last year and found him to be accomodating,considerate and funny. The old saying "you should never meet your heros - you will be dissappointed" is not true of Jet. His bass playing is still first class as is his peronality. I do however agree with your comments re.the Rapiers.
