      That's the impression I got too when watching it. The video guy wasn't sure what he was doing. Only late in the piece did he seem to wake up to Hank being the main guy.
      I am sorry, but just a Dire Straits was always regarded as Mark Knopfler's band, so the Shadows will always be Hank Marvin's band. The reason in both cases, the bands could not exist without them. They were the 'it' guys.

      If you read Jet’s own account, along with those of others who knew him, you will find that this was hardly a scandal. And it was in no way the main problem in his life. He was an alcoholic, and drink doesn’t mix with the high pressure of showbiz life.

    Great to see this video of the Shadows on Crackerjack, introduced by Eamon Andrews, I remember it well. The sound you hear, however, is not the sound off the show, which is given away by the outrageous edit at around 1.27. This is to cover up what Hank played in the breaks. Somebody regarded the improv. as a fluff and cut it out. Hank Marvin's playing was and still is..immaculate. The tone value of every note, and musical expression of every phrase is of a very high order, far beyond the expectation and demands of a pop group of the early 60's. But they set their own very high performance standards. If you would like to hear the original sound of this broadcast ( the Strat into the AC30 then miked) there is a video on YT labelled Frightened City - The Shadows. posted about 14 years ago. Yes Hank was and still is a tremendous guitar player , but the sound of the Shadows was made up by three other fellas. A great drummer, at this time, Tony Meehan, on bass the great Jet Harris and the engine room that drove the band Bruce Welch. ( try playing along with the rhythm guitar on The Savage. !!!

    Bruce Welch's rhythm guitar was always too low in the mix....should have been 2dB louder. The acid test is listening to the band without Hank playing...you should be able to make out the chord they're playing. Just saying....
