Cliff plays Apache

For those of us of a certain age, here's Cliff pretending to be Hank playing Apache on the 'Cliff Richard Show' on the telly on ATV in 1961. I'm sure you'll remember it. It was funny at the time :

The JMI Fenders arrived not long afterwards in 1961.

All Hank's gear and Shadows backing, but nothing like Hank's sound!

Yes, I forgot to mention that. Bruce is playing 'that' Tele from the first album cover. At least I assume it's the same one. It's in Black & White, so we can't be sure.
