Wish List For the 60th Anniversary
Posted: 13 Apr 2018, 13:26
So, 60 wonderful years of Shadow music coming up. I for one count myself lucky to have been able to enjoy the music, concerts, tv programs, DVD’s etc. etc. for so long.
I guess now we know it’s unlikely we shall see anything particularly new to celebrate the 60th anniversary, but concerts and new original album aside, if we were to see anything new, what would people like to see. My short list would be:
1) Compilation DVD of unissued material like the complete Shads set from the Thank You Very Much and The Event concerts – that’s if the material exists of course.
2) The BBC recordings – this sounds like it may be the most feasible from previous posts.
3) I know many are not so happy with the Polydor recordings, so how about taking some of the very best ones and remixing them as people have suggested with Bruce more to the front of the mix etc. Come on Warren that should be an interesting project!
4) Hopefully Brian’s book should be about later in the year, but how about an update to Bruce’s Rock N Roll I Gave You The Best Years of My Life.
Those are my starters, any others?
