I have been playing the music of The Shadows for a long time. The picture attached to the sound file I uploaded is of me at about 12-13
performing at the Saturday Morning club at the local Gaumont cinema.
As a performer or musician I always had a problem with the concept of trying to play something the same as someone else.
Even Hank when he performed Duane Eddy material did not try to make and exact copy.
Anyway for a bit of fun I recorded a reggae version of Apache. Being as I laid all the tracks myself I have all of the backing material.
This means that if you play lead, rythm, bass or drums I can give you a version with that instrument missing.
So if you want to have a go and make some original material please contact me and tell me what you need.
Perhaps we could have a little competition and come up with the best version?
This link should take you to the version I completed.
