Hi Dave, this one was always one of my favorite tunes. There are different versions (by The Sponicks as well). Excellent sound and playing as usual (no surprise ;-)) Should have had a cup of tea from 1:18 to 1:34 LOL Have a great week my friend, Ernst
Hi Dave, this is another fantastic rendition of a great tune and with a great tone, and superb guitar playing, for myself this is what appeals to me, I do respect your versatility as you play from romantic tunes to this type of foot tapping tune great job Dave thank you for your time and music best regards Tony D
Hi Dave.Met Jet a couple of months before he departed us.The original record was not played on the bass VI as is thought to be was played on a one tone down detuned Gretsch.Many thanks.
I first heard this on the Ventures Surfing album. I found out about Jet's recording and the Shadows after I got on You Tube. A great tune that you play very well! Many *******************
Came across this Dave .Don`t think I heard it last year . It`s one of my favourites and Shads mourned Jerry Lordan giving Jet & Tony this one .It was a deserved number 1 and it was height of Cliff Shads and others having 3 number 1`s in a row .Great times and fantastic sounds . You`ve done a great job on it and do the tune proud .Shads were at their best with Jet & Tony ,Brian was a good sub but Jet was never replaced .You`re at your best here too . Fantastic and just incomparable to what Shads became .Shame both Jet & Tony are no longer with us but you`ve re kindled a great tune 10 /10
Hi Ernst, Thank you. Yes I like this tune...its fun. I got a bit bored during the drum solo! lol Thought it would never end! lol Best wishes and take care, Dave
A nice bit of exercise for my left foot Dave. I'll have to look for another good tune for my right foot. Great job as usual my friend. Take care, Brian
hi dave this is mike daphnes husband we were friends of the late great jet harris still friends with his eldest son ben im sure jet would have been pleased with your cover of his song you did it proud always enjoy listening to your music best wishes
Hi Ian, No its not my wife on the drums! lol But you have given me an idea! MMMmmm. Yes I agree....all you smokers....give up! Thanks, Have a good one, Dave
yeah I like this one from Jet Harris and Tony, it had a haunting kind a sound which you seem to have captured its sad that he's no longer with us so to all you smokers out there STOP SMOKIN! :D its a nice backing sound but the drum solos nothing like the original as you are probably aware of but knowing you its probably the wife on drums :D in that case she's pretty good, Loved the other they did as well Scarlet O'Hara, Well done 10/10 Keep Rockin! Ian
Mr Monk.I have found you here on You Tube and I really enjoy listening to you. After more then 30 years of not playing, I have started up again, and you give me a lot of inspiration.My favourite then and now are The Spotnicks, The Ventures and The Shadows.Among others I'm practicing Diamonds, but I'd like to have the backing track.Therefore I'd like to ask you, if you will guide me to a place where I can get it. Thanks in advance.Kind regardsFinn Hoj/DK
+Finn Høj You would be amazed how many guys tell me what you have just told me. We were all SHadows fans back then and have spare time now! lol Your request is an easy one. goran.tangring.com/ has all the SHadows BT's you desire! FREE! Enjoy Dave
Hi again Dave. Thank you for your reference to Goran Tangrings homepage. Unfortunately he plays Diamonds in Am whereas you play in Em, which is the tune I prefer. Will you tell me from where you have found your Em backing track? Rgds Finn
Hi Dave, let me know where you are and l'll send you an umbrella. Full sun here and hot. Will take a swim in the pool in minutes. Have a nice & dry day lol Luca
If your ever do any request i love to see you do Scarlett O'Hara and Applejack 2 big hits but for some reason i have seen no one seems to have a go at the on You Tube maybe there to hard to play or just because there no guitar tabs out there for the songs...
I suspect it is more a question of no backing tracks being available. However, I have just checked and I have found "Applejack", so you never know, I might be doing a "Jet and Tony" tune! lol Best Regards Dave
Hi Hugh, I get lots of Karaoke songs from RUclips. I also buy lots from Leos Den web site and lots are free from Goran Tangring's web site. Thanks. Best wishes Dave
Bit faster than the original Dave ,must be your backing track .Should be a mite slower . Great number written of course by Jerry Lordon who also wrote Apache ,Wonderful Land and Atlantis for The Shadows .Shads were bit miffed Jet and Tony got this number from Jerry . Still enjoyed it though but backing track guys are trying to get away for their tea break !

Hi Dave.Super.
Mr Monk.I have found you here on You Tube and I really enjoy listening to you.
After more then 30 years of not playing, I have started up again, and you give me a lot of inspiration.My favourite then and now are The Spotnicks, The Ventures and The Shadows.Among others I'm practicing Diamonds, but I'd like to have the backing track.Therefore I'd like to ask you, if you will guide me to a place where I can get it. Thanks in advance.Kind regardsFinn Hoj/DK

Hi again Dave.
Thank you for your reference to Goran Tangrings homepage.
Unfortunately he plays Diamonds in Am whereas you play in Em, which is the tune I prefer.
Will you tell me from where you have found your Em backing track?
Rgds

+Finn Høj

Hi Dave,
Another good one, where do you find the backing tracks for all the tunes?
Hugh
heel goed gespeeld
🌹🌹🌹🌹❤️🎸🎸🎸🎼🎼😘
very very good
If your ever do any request i love to see you do Scarlett O'Hara and Applejack 2 big hits but for some reason i have seen no one seems to have a go at the on You Tube maybe there to hard to play or just because there no guitar tabs out there for the songs...
I suspect it is more a question of no backing tracks being available.
However, I have just checked and I have found "Applejack", so you never know, I might be doing a "Jet and Tony" tune! lol
Best Regards
Dave
oh really thank you very much :)
also i thought you did a seekers song on here,but i cannot find it now...
Hi Hugh,
I get lots of Karaoke songs from RUclips.
I also buy lots from Leos Den web site and lots are free from Goran Tangring's web site.
Thanks.
Best wishes
Dave
Bit faster than the original Dave ,must be your backing track .Should be a mite slower .
Great number written of course by Jerry Lordon who also wrote Apache ,Wonderful Land and Atlantis for The Shadows .Shads were bit miffed Jet and Tony got this number from Jerry .
Still enjoyed it though but backing track guys are trying to get away for their tea break !
Aye but tell them backing boys tae hae their tea first next time ,They`re in one big hurry .
Needs to go down an octave
Rubbish.
mikelheron20 OK expert, what key do you suggest?
