Hi Christian, I never get bored listening to this wonderful melody even I must have heard (and played) it hundreds of times. Especially when it`s played absolutely perfectly and with a brilliant sound like your rendition. Friendly regards, Ernst
Every day I look for sonorous and artistic pearls and sometimes I find diamonds and other immeasurable values, what a shame I was here since September 2012. I will always listen. Congratulations Springer16900.
He the best cover player of The Shadows by far. Close your eyes and listen to him. You'd think its Hank himself. The sound production is uncanny. How did he even get the amps setting and pedals is astounding. keep it on.
Hi Fist, many thanks for your enthousiastic comments. Indeed, I am not using pedals or hardware effects. All this is achieved by means of a genuine solution based on software effects. If you want some explanations I have a forum where I explain everything. Not only that, I also distribute my solution (it's 100% free) to people who want to use it. Here is the forum link: vintage-sounds.freeforums.net More than 300 people worldwide are now using this in replacement of their old equipment and are very happy with it.
Love this tune and again your sound is so close to the original....But its not just about sound its about playing these tracks from the heart and all of us who enjoy and love these beautiful melodies, i think do exactly that...I feel each of us in our own small way are helping to keep a stunning legacy of music alive.......again a first class prformance........wonder if Hank himself ever looks in at these clips...........Paul
Hi Paul Thank you for comments And I fully agree ! I think Hank is no more interested by all these oldies. He is rather oriented gypsy jazz now... Cheers - Christian
Hello Christian Thanks for all your very good videos You certainly play the Shadows very well indeed And thanks also to your group backing you Cheers from Thailand...
Thank you very much Robert. Yes I am lucky to play many of there old tunes with my friends of the Virtual Shadows Tribute. Cheers from France - Christian
springer16900 I wish my memory was better. it was just the other day you played it with claude being on the track. . I am listening to them all again to make sure,
I have a Casio CS 44P Keyboard and I'm able to duplicate the guitar sound. I also found the background cover music here on RUclips. So I'm practicing this song as well as another one you did in a different video woth the song 'Theme for young lovers" Your versions inspire me Springer! Thank you!
Hello Springer, I am a great admirer of yours, I am very attentive all your publications on You Tube and I have to say that they are explendid! I also play the guitar and I'm the founder of the group The Shadows and Hanc Marin. I have a guitar like yours, with which you play Wanderful Land, exactly the same, a Stratocaster Plus color Fiesta Red and the sound is typical of the 70s 80s, it is one of my favorite guitars. Good Springer in good time and forward! regards Ignacio Poladura.- (from the Canary Islands)
C'était la chanson des Shadows préférée de mon père... je voudrais qu'il soit encore ici, pour lui faire écouter Votre interprétation...merci Christian...
Sans doute nous écoute-t-il de la haut.... Merci en tout cas de ce gentil commentaire. Pour information, nous venons de ré-enregistrer ce titre et réalisé une nouvelle vidéo ou tous les membres du groupe apparaissent. C'est sur la chaîne de cricrimusic. Il y a pas mal d'autres vidéos Shadows. ruclips.net/video/cdooJV6-5rA/видео.html Bien cordialement - Christian
@@springer16900 cher Mr. Christian..moi aussi je vous suis depuis longtemps, car je joue de la guitare électrique et vos vidéos sont en même temps didactiques et émouvants...
There’s lots of covers of this great tune on You Tube Christian but I think yours is one of the best. Played with feeling and accuracy. It was the first single I bought and am now learning to play it. Your rendition is a constant reference. Best Wishes, Nic
great stuff Christian, such a great sound I can see how much effort you have put in to make such a great rendition possible, I love your style and presence top top job thanks keeping the sounds alive Colin Legg
It is true what everyone else is saying... there are other good Shadows tributes... and there are awesome ones... and then there is this. Cannot be bettered.
Heh heh - there are some with a good ear and focus on detail , I have been searching through with the view to posting my own . . I don't imagine that I am going to top yours ! . You really do this Beautiful classic justice . Thank you .
Hola sprinter fabuloso video te felicito, suena tal mente igual que The Shadows de los años 60. Me puedes decir que modelo de fender strat y que equipo gastas para ése maravilloso sonido? Recibe un cordial saludo.
I remember the first time I listened this song in the far 1962. You have renewed that emotion. Please can you tell me how to contact you? are you on Facebook or other. It would be a pleasure to me to know more about you and your music.... By Fabio
Hi Roger, Many thanks for your so kind comments. Yes we are all OK but less involved in music now. May be interest will come back later...🙄Cheers - Christian
Thank you Tony. For the effect, I am using my VST system. If you are interested, you will find info on my forum here: vintage-sounds.freeforums.net You just need to register (it's free) Note also that I distribute this VST package completely free of charge to forum members. It includes about 250 effect patches ready to use, for most of Shadows tunes, but also Spotnicks, Ventures and other artists. Cheers - Christian
Hi Thank you. I am very attached to play all these Shadows tunes as close as possible to the original. Indeed, this is not very difficult to play. Reproducing the original sound is another story but is contributes considerably to the result. More information on this here: vintage-sounds.freeforums.net/ Cheers - Christian
Hi I have 2 videos for Rise and Fall. Here is the latest, with our V.S.T band: ruclips.net/video/eOqBJp7QQYc/видео.html&list=PL-MDUtPcJzgIe9KWJC7Mo8PBqo1EsYQf-
Hi Herman Thanks for your visite and your interest. I have not used my guitar amp for this one. This is a direct recording in the video recorder ZOOM Q3-HD. Here is the setup used: I am using my usual live VST system for the lead sound (this runs on the laptop). BT is played by another destop. Both BT and solo are mixed in an mixing console. Console main output goes to the Q3HD Line IN plug, where it is recorded with the video. I monitor by means of 2 Samson active monitors, also connected to the mixing Console. Of course this is much better than using a guitar amp with a mike as you don't suffer from poor/bad room acoustics. What you record is EXACTLY what you hear in headphones or monitors. This is why I am no more using my guitar amp when I record videos. As I resold my Q3-HD since then, I am now using a good numeric camera that has a much better video quality (4k). As this camera does not have any separate audio Input, I record the mix in my DAW while playing, and I simply replace the initial audio track recorded by the camera by this mix when I create the final video. This is even better than the previous method. Hope this helps Cheers - Christian
I also think the tone is nicely emulated... any which way but lose I say! Seen as we can't travel back in time to 1962, just after everybody walked out of the EMI studio :)
Christian you have an excellent copy of the sounds from Hank Marvin 's Strat. Your playing is exemplary and I have only heard one other guitar player play as authentic as you and that was back in the sixties. Thank you for your demonstrations of these Shadow's tunes...we'll done! PS What do you use for echo/reverb
+David Hendley & Geoff Walton Hi Thank you for these so kind comments. For Shadows repertoire, having the right sound is key to the results, and considerably helps at playing in Hank Marvin tracks...
