I'm going back here to the 7th of August 1959 when Craig Douglas had a hit with this number.

15 weeks at No 1 !

Only Sixteen

That works really well as an instrumental. Some great tones !

What can I say. You've done it again.
Great old classic, beautifully interprited (Shadows style).

You are going to have to put together a BT cd and tab for a group of songs like this & sea cruise.

Has anyone done Silhouettes? I love that tune. If I were starting a tribute band, that's what I would call them.

Hi Roger..nice version..Gary

Numbers which were originally vocals don't always work well as instrumentals but I'm pleased to hear that you liked this arrangement.

Thanks very much for the comments.

Cor I was only 8 when this came out - Smashing job Roger - faultless performance lovely tone on your guitar.
- you haven't told us which one you used, but which ever one it was sounds just right for this song which works great as an instrumental.

Cheers Phil

Thanks for that Phil - my Strat seemed to suit this number best so that's what I used.

Corrrrrrrr.........where did that last fifty years go eh !!!!

Yes agreed - 50 years makes me feel old - but the good thing is I can still remember these classics from way back then.
The Strat sounds great for this song - but sometimes you catch me out and you're not always using what I think you are.
Nice one Phil

Superb Track, Rog!!
I quite remember the original and this Instro is SO reminiscent.
LOvely Job!!
Craig Douglas is still going the rounds with this song (and others) as part of a 60's Revival Roadshow.
cheers
