Tribute to Jet Harris

Hi Folks

The Surrey Shadows Club meeting for March took place on Friday 18th - the same day we lost Jet to cancer. The band made the decision on the night to play only numbers that Jet Harris was involved in while he was with The Shadows. We recorded the various tunes we played and put together a tribute DVD for specific people. Here are the tracks on the DVD - each one posted on YouTube. The first is Apache. I'll add the others as soon as I've grabbed 'em off the camera. Hope you enjoy our renditions of these very special numbers.

01: Apache

Well done Chris, Brian, Eric and Graham and our own Administrator lurking at the back of the stage with his tambourine (thought I'd give you all a name check). Not to mention a cameo walk on appearance - literally - by OLDEREK.

Great sound on what I'm sure must have been a poignant occasion.

Cheers.

Tony

Thanks, Tone

Yes - Himself (Bob Dore) there expertly playing that tambourine and Derek, who gave us a really nice speech on Jet. I didn't get the speech on video unfortunately, but we captured as many of the "Jet" tunes as we could. I'll continue uploading 'em shortly.

All the best
Chris

That's as good as it gets sound-wise on a camcorder, very accurate sound to my ears anyway and very well played. Most enjoyable. :thumbup:

Hi Brian

OY! You're ahead of me <chuckle> I'll put up the Back Home next, I think. Gotta keep 'em in as close to chronological order as possible.

Thanks for listening - glad you're enjoying.
