This is a rare live audio of the Shadows performing Running Out of World at the Split Music Festival in 1967.



The announcer says that the 1st prize of the jury and a special Yugoton record label award at the 1967 Split Music Festival was going to the song "Bit na moru" (Beat on the Sea), written by Mario Boljuni, and that the second version of this song, called "Running Out of World," text by Don Black and arranged by Norrie Paramor, would now be performed by the Shadows.

Yes! A performing unit on top of its game.

Misleading photo on the video, by the way. This was not the Fender and Licorice line-up, these were The Shadows using Burns guitars with a jaunty, highly characteristic bass line from John.

I didn't know that the famous award-winning lyricist Don Black had written the English words for this. Don Black has a regular Sunday evening show on BBC Radio 2. The current series has come to an end but I'm sure there'll be another one later in the year.

Don Black also wrote Sam (for ONJ) with Hank and John Farrar.

Was this performance filmed and shown on television or was it broadcasted on radio?

As his original post was sent in March 2018, it might be worth sending Bojan a private message possibly to jog his memory! :)

Yes, I've tried that, but the message stays in the "Outbox" and doesn't seem to get sent.
