THIS is worth watching. Great quality. I believe it may only be available for 24 hours...

The tune is not Leonard Bernstein's Somewhere!

It's George Harrison's Something (in a similar arrangement to that played by The Shadows on "Shades Of Rock"). :-)

Who IS that girl who duets with Cliff on Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head?

Good to see this. There was a clip on Youtube, some years ago, of Hank playing Something on the greenburst Burns. But I had forgotten the use of 2 guitars live (not miming to a backing track?). Not done too often by musicians, but Hank and Bruce have switched guitars mid-tune on stage, usually with the 2nd guitar on a stand. Or even with the guitar swop done with the help of a roadie.

Nice to see a recording of this quality. Out of copyright now? - over 50 years old?

Kindest regards,

Yeah, I know. For some strange reason I just typed 'where' after the 'some'. No idea why. Must be old age.

Wow!! Thanks for the link to Cliff In Scandinavia. Watched the whole show....REALLY enjoyed it!!!!! Hahahaha. I recognised Alan Hawkshaw and Dave Richmond in the backing group....but who was on drums and rhythm guitar??? Does anyone know??? Might the drummer have been Rex Bennett (who played with Hank 1969 / 70 during his solo phase). Fascinating programme. :D

Some years ago, someone on this forum has said that the drummer was Kenny Clare and the rhythm guitarist Ritchie Tattersall, who also played guitar on Brian Bennett's second solo album "The Illustrated London Noise".

Doubt it was live - probably mimed to a re recorded backing track (ie not the studio released version) - but brilliant all the same and great presentation
