Default Re: So long, Tony

I have brought this post back up because a few days ago Jet Harris passed away. Jet was the Bass player with The Shads, sadly alcohol got the better of him back then and he left the group. Enjoyed some solo success then faded from the scene. Another of my 60's heroes has gone. I saw The Shadows many times but not when Jet and Tony were in, my loss.


This is the first British No. 1 the group had, both Tony and Jet can be seen.

The other 2 are Hank Marvin on lead guitar and Bruce Welch (wearing the hat) on rhythm guitar. The Shadows and The Beatles epitomise the 60's here in Britain for me.
