Best The Shadows Songs
The Shadows were a British band in the 1960s best known for being Cliff Richard's backing band. They also had a successful career of their own as an instrumental group. I'm surprised that no one has made a list about them. Feel free to add any other songs to the list if you're a Shadows fan.Their biggest and most influential hit. It's fair to say that without this song, a lot of British guitarists wouldn't have picked up the guitar.
I knew this would be first, and rightly so. My Pops loved The Shadows and this one in particular. This is a vote for him.
This song has a very strong galloping rhythm that gives it a unique quality.
This one has great guitar harmonies. The melody line is fantastic.
This one is a jaunty two step that kinda reminds me of western music.
Their second big hit. Like Apache, this one's in A minor.
This song is a showcase for drummer Tony Meehan. He was an amazing drummer.
This one has a very syncopated riff throughout that I love.
As the song implies, it is literally a "Shadow Boogie". It's a great uptempo number.
This is a cover of the infamous Johnny and Santos song. It is so chilled out that it takes you to another place.
