j'ai toujours aimé le son de guitare des shadows ..... merci à vous les musiciens , qui jouez vos versions , personnelles et variées de tout le répertoire , de ce groupe mythique des années 60 .... bravo à tous .... !!!
Hello Christian, Super my good friend :).. I always liked this tune by The Shadows !!.. great tone.. excellent playing!. thumbs up from me!. All The Best To You, Gary.
Hi Christian , Havn't heard this one for around twenty years or so now. Great cover from you and the virtual shadows, big thumbs up my friend. best regards kev..
Hi Christian, just discovered you and your VST...."ABSOLUTELY ASTOUNDED" by your covers as I am a huge Shadows fan and it's just like listening to the original...BRAVO 👏
There were rats, Rats, As big as bloomin Cats, In the Store, In the Store. There were Rats, Rats, As big as bloomin Cats, In the Quartermaster Store, Behind the door! My eyes are dim, I cannot see, I have not bought, My specs with me. I have nooot bought...miiii specs with me.
Christian i remember hearing this when I was 12 years old as a Boy Scout. We used to sing the song around the campfire. Another great cover. Valentine plays very good bass. What happened to your other bassman? He was good too. Terrible things in Paris today. I woke to that on the radio tis morning. I thought I was dreaming.
Yes Jeremy, it is a nightmare. I did not slept last night. And I am afraid this is just a beginning... But thanks for these kind words. Our band being virtual, can play with several musicians, all living in various regions, depending on their availability, their tastes in terms of tunes, their willingness to participate, etc... This is one of the advantages of this virtual band concept. We have paused our productions since one year approx, but we are currently considereing to restart for some new numbers. Cheers - Christian
Christian...I had an idea a few years ago (kind of like a chain letter, but not illegal) where basically someone would record let's say some part of a song they make up...then pass it along and somebody else would then layer it with something harmonic over top of it...and so on and so forth....I think I came up with that one because I can only play by ear and have no real memory of where the notes/frets are etc...so it takes me a while to find and play the accompanying tune that I have in my head out onto the guitar or whatever instrument I am using...as it is difficult for me to jam with people..

Hi Christian, well played. what sort of Strat is that?? is that a Wilkinson nut? ...it looks similar to my mate's Strat Deluxe but he has a Maple neck and Lace Sensor PUPs on his.
Hi Lindsay. Thank you. It is a Strat+ of 1989. It was equipped with Lace Sensor PUs but I replaced them by 57/62. Nut is Wilkinson and it has also a Trim-setter. Cheers - Christian
I came across your website a few days ago and read on one of them that you are NOT using your guitar amp. So how do you feed the guitar to the Mixer. ...via a DI box or what? Merci
Like it! See my post on the Shadows original for some spoof lyrics, but you spelt it wrong like everyone else, it's Quatermasster's stores after the sci fi series.
Hi Jan This is a collective work with some friends, each one in charge of one instrument. Unfortunately I have not made any backing track from this. Sorry - Christian
Hi John Thank you for your comments. Unfortunately, I am not using Tabs. Indeed, I tried to décode this tricky part with my sole ears... I am not sure at all this is the right way to play this, but it's the best I could find this time. Cheers - Christian
First class well played !!!
Das weckt Erinnerungen 😮Absolut Klasse gespielt 👏👏👏
Great to hear it. Hank lost contact with these timeless tunes. Thanks for making it " alive " again. I love it 😁

Christian...I had an idea a few years ago (kind of like a chain letter, but not illegal) where basically someone would record let's say some part of a song they make up...then pass it along and somebody else would then layer it with something harmonic over top of it...and so on and so forth....I think I came up with that one because I can only play by ear and have no real memory of where the notes/frets are etc...so it takes me a while to find and play the accompanying tune that I have in my head out onto the guitar or whatever instrument I am using...as it is difficult for me to jam with people..
un régal au casque, on a l'impression que le play-back est légèrement en écho, vous étiez un "requin de studio" comme on disait à l'époque ?
Bonjour. Merci pour les commentaires sympas.Pour le playback, il s'agit des 3 autres membres de notre groupe virtuel (virtuel car nous travaillons à distance, étant dissémines partout en France). On travaille donc par échanges de fichiers. Pour le reste non, je ne suis qu'un amateur...

Christian, as-tu déjà rencontré Hank Marvin?
Bonjour Jean-Marc
Non, jamais. A vrai dire je n'ai même jamais vu un concert... Honte à moi !

Hi Jan
This is a collective work with some friends, each one in charge of one instrument.
Unfortunately I have not made any backing track from this.
Sorry - Christian
tab o lesson grazieeeeee MAESTRO
Hi Christian - nice Shads playing. Do you have the tab for the middle section?
Best regards
John Uk
Hi John
Thank you for your comments.
Unfortunately, I am not using Tabs. Indeed, I tried to décode this tricky part with my sole ears... I am not sure at all this is the right way to play this, but it's the best I could find this time.
Cheers - Christian
you always play r8 ,
On revit
Merci au nom du groupe.
est-il possible de faire mieux ???
peut-être... Mais il faut des gars (et des filles comme ici Valentine) motivés et du genre perfectionnistes.
On te remercie tous Bibi. Biz
Qui est Valentine (la seule que je ne connais pas)
C'est Valentine Cayen, de la famille à Denis du même nom.
