This is a real Shadows song, but you never heard it in this way. I heard it twice live during the Final Tour Concerts in Amsterdam and Brighton. I made an instro out of it (hope you like it)

My Home Town

Its all own work (except of course the song itself ;))

That's a great track, Klaas - with a lead guitar sound straight out of the "Rockin' With Curly Leads" era.

Now, the $1,000,000 question...

Any chance of the backing track (without lead guitar)? Please?

Hat tip to you, Klaus for recording an instro version of this. After seeing/hearing the DVD, I'd like to hear more instro versions of Cliff songs. I didn't like the arrangements/playing on the Hank Plays Cliff CD...way to "disco" for me.

Case in point...Roger's version of I Could EZ Fall is far superior to the Hank Plays Cliff version.

Keep these kewl trax comin', ladies/gentlemen.

Great track Klaas. Made a very good instro. A brill.BT too. I also agree with Walt that Rogers version of Easily Fall.. is better than Hanks rendition.

Hi Klaas,
I really like this - A great instrumental arrangement of the vocal version - I agee with JN the lead is very much in the Rocking with curley leads era.
The acoustic guitars sound great - a lot of feeling with the different sections of the song - This must have taken a lot of work but is well worth it as you have produced a brilliant sound file that you should be very proud of.
Cheers Phil

Thanks guys for your kind words :-*

Yes, it takes a lot of time, making your own BT, but it gives a lot of (musical ;)) satisfaction.

I like the song as played by Marvin Welch Farrar because of he brilliant lyrics and the musical variety in chords.
And, of course, Hank and Bruce are excellent singers....

Cheers
Klaas
