The closest I’ve been to correspondence with the Shadows was a letter accompanied by two cassettes of his own work and some signed photos from Warren Bennett.

In my opinion the Marvin Welch Rostill Bennett was the ultimate recording and composing time.

Blimey Mark !!! That opening,... I thought for sure it was going to lead into Neil Young's "Rocking In The Free World"!!!! Neil Young and our Cliff, my top two favourite artists of all time,.... and in that order. Still insist I am the biggest Cliff fan in the world mind,... (dont get angry at me,...😁😁😁😁). You have clearly wide ranging musical tastes. What do you think of Neil Young? I responded to your last upload of you and your band, suggesting Cliff record an album called "Cliff Richard sings Neil Young Love Songs". It would so open up Cliff in the USA, the sheer audacity of it. Love your uploads Mark, stay safe and well. Kind regards, Brian, 65, Bristol.

It’s wonderful to see this. You sing really well. Thank you ❤

Very nice. ❤

Larry Norman. Almost a hidden treasure. Deserves far more acclaim. He has it for sure amongst his peers, but deserves a wider audience. Nicely done, Mark.

Love this …different then the album😉👍 but still love it! Thx for sharing.

❤ the singing voice Cliff Richard ❤🎉

The best

Beautiful song lovely version by Cliff 🌹❤

The Small Corners album is my favorite gospel album by Cliff Richard and then comes Now You See me Now You don't. All great songs!

Lovely love it ❤❤

The sincerity of this great man inspires deep respect.

Glad to see you now rate the "I'm No Hero" in your top three, Mark!

Hi Mark. Just running through your "five minute" Cliff album reviews. I listened to your comments about the "Silver Album", for which the youtube upload does not provide us with an option of the usual "Comment" box, to enable us to reply. No intent on my part by cheating, but contrary to your statement, I am sure our Cliff released "Golden Days..." first, and that Bucks Fizz did not release until AFTER Cliff ??? I say this, as my younger brother loved Bucks Fizz, and, unless it is a "Mandella effect", I have a strong and vivid recollection of telling him that Bucks Fizz did a neat job, but not a patch on Cliff's version. Bucks Fizz were fairly new at that time, and I don't think they released it until 84 or 85 ?

I can remember seeing Cliff on TV for the first time, on the long-running variety show Val Parnell's Sunday night at the London Palladium, and being distinctly underwhelmed, wondering what all the fuss was about (I'd been reading and seeing quite a lot about him beforehand). The screaming from the audience baffled me totally. Why were they doing it? I'd have been about 9 or 10 at the time.

One curious point that no-one else here seems to have noted is that the Beatles, Cliff and the Shadows were all about the same age; in fact the average ages of the two acts differed by only about a month. The difference lay in their musical apprenticeships. While Cliff and the Shads were playing coffee bars, holiday camps and other tame UK venues, appealing chiefly to people their own age (and having the good luck, through being London-based, of being discovered while still pretty young), the Beatles were honing their talents in the tough red-light area of Hamburg, learning how to "mak show" for a considerably older and rougher audience, and for far longer at a stretch. Less capable musically than Cliff and the Shads they most certainly were at first, but that German experience transformed them into a power house that not even America could withstand for long.

I met Jet ,, it was weeks before he passed, what an enjoyable few minutes I had with him.

Greetings Mark, thank u for sharing this awesome song.. amazing u sang it a Acapella..so difficult without music backing..did well..sounded lovely! Beautiful blessings!

Lyrics??????

The road crew man at the end looks familuar

Hi Mark. As a 65 year old Catholic boy I get what you mean about the religious songs hitting deeper than the pop/rock releases. THE ROCK THAT DOESN'T ROLL came up on my RUclips recommendations a couple of days ago. Live concert version. Not in my top ten religious Cliff records, (nor is FROM A DISTANCE), but I just loved your selection. Cliff genuinely helped me get my faith back. He has written some great records, and I feel he is seriously underrated in that regard. Not heard number 5 so shall check it out. I shall be having WHEN I SURVEY THE WONDROUS CROSS as my funeral record, the acapello version from the SMALL CORNERS album. The timing of that album release, being the same year as the release of GREENLIGHT, was questionable, but it is a superb album in its own right, and I turn to it when feeling low. Thanks for sharing, Mark.

Hi Mark. I don't own a TV or Laptop, watching everything on my mobile phone, despite small screen. Certainly you have a diverse, healthy, mix of music away from our Cliff. I worship Cliff to an embarrassing point of obsession, yet will always have Neil Young as the greatest influence musically in my 65 years. I started typing this comment to ask if it was you singing, but then you introduced yourself and the band, and the penny dropped! I was taken aback at your genre of music in this upload, as so far adrift of our Cliff, but you did a cracking job, so thanks for the share. PS: I would still love Cliff to record the love songs of Neil Young and finally hit the USA big time. Stay well Mark. Kind regards, Brian, Bristol, England.

So pointless. They're both what they are, that's all - fabulous forever.

Csodálatos ❤

Thanks Mark. Not heard this before. Is this a Cliff composition Mark? Very nice song, regardless.

Lyric??????

Thank you Mark! I have never heard this track before, nor even knew the song. An impressive vocal from Cliff. Much appreciated, Mark.

Fair comment Jet.

Folyton hallottam nem lehet a csodálatos zenéje nélkül élni ❤

My favourites

Fantastic !

Qué HERMOSA CANCION y que MARAVILLOSA interpretación la de Sir Cliff!!!. Amo su música, sus canciones, the way he is!!!

I saw the Shadows at the Colosseum in 1961...incredible night...the crowd went bananas. But there's one thing that nobody has ever commented on... the Shadows were the precursors of the 4-piece harmony groups with their 4-part harmony version of All My Sorrows. Who knew they could sing that well...?

Thank you Mark C for the info.

Great album. Sadly the film didn't too well, poor script. Cliff and The Shads excelled as you would expect. The Spanish element was outstanding. I bought the vinyl LP in 66/67, still have it and the CD I got several years ago. Happy music. Totally agree with you Mark, only I would give it 11/10!! 😀👍

The most beautiful song in the world❤❤❤

Elvis classic but Cliff is not far behind, love Cliff.

Cliff has so many great songs. i'm more of an older Cliff fan from the late 60's through to the end of the 80's.

The Beatles were their own thing. Cliff was a poor man's gay Elvis.

Beatles v Cliff Richard😂

If you go down that route it was Tommy Steel then Adam Faith then the Shads, I think the Beatles had the pops because of their personalities and original tunes

Why is he praising someone who allegedly had an affair with his wife?

Never mind is a classic. Love Dynamite also. My dad loved Please don’t tease. What are your thoughts on Nine times out of ten? it’s a banger, I’m sure it was an original. Great channel mate.

Really a great video. I got the DVD original

I love this song❤

Всегда узнаваем уважаемый сер Клифф! спасибо большое за творчество,ваши поклонники из России!👏👍🇷🇺

'Move it', remains one of the greatest rock and roll records of all time. Even the Beatles had been known to play it. Like Elvis. some of the later religious pap and lesser songs Cliff released, overshadows all the amazing songs he recorded (he even did a Stones song, better than the Stones). I met Jet at a Joe Meek tribute night.. amazing to see and meet both him and Bruce Welch in the same pub. Tommy Steele, Terry Dene and Cliff's friends of the Parnes stable, also created hysteria with the screaming teens.

You are such a Cliff fan. It shows in the way you talk about this great man. I have always loved him since I can remember. I was born in Birmingham but now live in Australia. My only downfall of this wonderful country is that we don’t get as much chance to see this fabulous, fantastic man. 🎉❤🎉❤ Always look forward to your videos for a great catch up. Thank you ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹🕺🕺🕺
