I'm 77 years old, and I played Hanks Melodies and sang Cliff songs over a lot of years in bands in Germany. Cliff and the Shads are a serious and high quality band, they created music for generations. I see the full reunion concert x-time in a month: it reminds me of wonderful and sensational times, and it is still a big and wonderful part of my life. For me they are the best!! Cliff and Hank are the "stars". Greetings to all fans.
I was one of the touring truck drivers on this European tour which finished in Denmark. As a thank you Cliff and the band hired a complete Thai restaurant for a final get together meal for all of the crew. Magical times being served my meal by the band. Great memories.
Thanks for the memories. Been a fan since day 1. Now 73. What a lovely afternoon I've had reliving the 'good old days'. Shed a few tears ...oh how it takes me back❤
FABULOUS, FABULOUS, FABULOUS! I’m 73 and how can I thank you for bringing back ALL those FABULOUS memories when I was A ‘YOUNG ONE’ back at West Drayton Secondary Modern and the Youth Club when we danced and loved and lived our youthful lives! A GREAT, GREAT THANK YOU to Cliff and the Shads for these FABULOUS 2 hours!
These guys in their late 60's here. If you close you eyes, listen, you would think they were still in their 20's. Consummate showmen, all of them. Thoroughly entertaining 2 hours.
On my 20th birthday, 1969, I had a present from my girlfriend. It was an album, "Out of the Shadows". Now, 54 years later we are enjoying this wonderful concert together.
I met Hank Marvin in Australia n took fotos with him,what a humble man,u would never say he is so famous.Keep up the good work Hank n Bruce.ur sis in Truth,Anna South Africa
When I saw Hand with that Burns Guitar, wow, need I say more. I have the Bass version (with the Wild Dog),,of circa 1963 manufacture, and it still plays perfectly.
i think they are marvelous. what an amazing guitarist (real shredder) songwriter and singer. Top notch. The synchronized dance foot work by the musicians blows me away.
All I can say is that I'm very thankful for RU-vid otherwise I would never have found this reunion! Have loved Cliff and the Shadows since I was very young after having my sisters playing their music constantly and watching Cliff Richard movies on tv. Am reliving my childhood and I'm now 62.
Being from the states, I never really listened to Cliff Richard although I had heard of him back in the 60s. I watched his concert and I was very impressed and will now remain a fan. His back up band is absolutely fantastic. Keep on going for a long time. Thanks for your music.
Cliff Richard and the Shadows a really fruitful partnership in the musical field over decades and decades.Thanks for your sweet and nostalgic melodies and songs.Hats off guys !
I've just saw this fabulous show now How talented these guy's were Hank could make that gettar talk All are absolutely brilliant Thank you for sharing 👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️
That is the same I woud like to say. The first LP i bought was Cliff and The Shadows. And "THE YOUNG ONES" i saw swvwral times. They are really the BEST.👋👌
This video is already from 14 years ago but still ... what CLASS!!! I always was a big fan of the shadows and always will be! Reunions like this really show what for musical artists they really are! What a performance! Just TIMELESS!!!
i think they are marvelous. what an amazing guitarist (real shredder) songwriter and singer. Top notch. The synchronized dance foot work by the musicians blows me away.
Wow what wonderful tunes n singing, 60 years ago this was always on in the radios in my part of the world. In 1962 the band came here to do voluntary show for freedom from hunger, which dad gladly took us. The family felt proud taking part. Thanks Cliff, thanks the shadows, thank you all God bless
Dear Shadows and Sir Cliff, a masterpiece of performance....thank you for sharing your wonderful music with all if us in the world..may God bless you and yours abundantly
in my young years there were 3 great singers, Elvis, Cliff and Roy. Also how cool were Elvis movies and we went to watch Summer holiday with Cliff. I had a soft spot for Cliff Richard and I still get excited when ever I see him on youtube. Cliff Richard is still a very handsome man 🥰
@michaelougarezos8963; Yes, indeed. I absolutely adored each of those beautiflul great singers back then and I still LOVE & ADORE every one of them. 🥰 😘 😘
I have been a fan and follower of Cliff and The Shadows since 1962. Oh how I wished I was at this 2009 Final Reunion Concert. Whenever I play this DVD/BlueRay recording, these brilliant songs and instrumental pieces bring back so much fun and great memories of my younger days; and these guys put up such a grand performance. Now that it's on RU-vid, it is just a click away! Thank you!
I went to Cliff & the Shads final reunion (may yet be a reunion, reunion & hopefully i'll be at that also.) I've seen both his musicals. However, i haven't got either on dvd. I have the music .I've been to a lot off his concerts & I love his music & also him as a entertainer & person. And i'm a mere 64 nxt mnth
Thks Jeffrey Choong, read your message and I also a great fan of Cliff since my School days in the 60's.My memories always same as you since am young until now 2022 years.I have a CD of this 2009 which I bought many years back, thks for reading my message.Stay Happy n Safe and Good Health.@@
Greatest legends ever. Timeless music. I'm very happy and excited for being born in this time frame. Rock-and-roll era. It will never die...God bless you all....
I am from India🇮🇳. And, I've grown up with the Cliff. Started with borrowed cassette, then CD and now on RU-vid! What a unbelievable transformation of the means. But, the original beauty of our Cliff is eternal.
Have seen Sir Cliff in concert 4 times over the years. He is incredible to see and his voice is just amazing to listen to. He never missed a note or beat and has maintained his voice over time..A legend for sure. Love this guy!!
Hey, whats the harm in that ? Nobody is perfact and mistake happen with everyone.as long as they got back the song right and audience enjoy it. That's it.
I'm no spring chicken, but was a mere glint in my fathers eye when these boys were coming on form. Late GF told me she & her friend would cry in front of the TV watching the pelvis & falling off a Cliff as teenagers to the dismay of her father. She walked in 2010 age 60 to put dates into context. Never stopped loving Cliff as fashion wavered, she was always filled with glee with any manifestation. Nice to participate in the shared joy & sheer fun these guys extol. Cheers Dennis - I raise my glass!
One of the greatest and most awesome legend of our time. Listening to his songs with the Shadows always bring back wonderful memories of my innocent youth where we listen to songs everyday.or play in the compound with the sound of music playing .❤❤❤
What these Lads have achieved is phenomenal. No one will ever do what they have done. Others come and go but they have always been there. Well done Lads.
I've heard many dozens of 60s groups do 21st century reunions; but how many of them have vocal chords _and_ vocal control intact? This is an impressive performance by a bunch of senior citizens who didn't get the memo about fading into the sunset. :^). And in-ear monitors are helping them sing _really_ in tune - very impressive..
@@fredsampson Look closely at the close-up shots - they _are_ wearing in-ears. You may have to freeze a shot and toggle the frames using the < and > keys.
@@pbasswil you are correct sir, in that Cliff is using IEMs. But The Shad’s are not. Check @4:45 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-I0hQUtCRD5Y.html , where they interview their monitor engineer. Either way, they are brilliant and a world class talented group. These concert videos are fabulous. Cheers.
Im 64 this yr & heard his music when i was about 6-8 &loved him since. I went to c Time & Heathcliff & various concerts right up to & incl the Reunion concert. As gd as when i seen him at a gig where i lived & my 17th b'day . Great singer & The Shads also.
I must say Cliff Richard and the Shadows we're wonderful ❤but The SHADOW'S were in a class of their own absolutely out of this world brilliant 👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️
Absolutely fantastic. So many memories. Love the music these guys played. My favourites were ‘The Young Ones’ where the words were so prophetic (I’m now 75)! and ‘Wonderful Land’. I remember it going to No 1 and Hank saying in an interview that they were nervous recording it as it was their first time with an orchestra. Never to be forgotten, Cliff and the Shads. Thank you.
I never get tired listening to Cliff and the Shadows,they bring so many nice memories from when me and my late husband were still courting.Really fantastic.❤❤
Superb performance ! These are what you call real performers, no auto tuning like today's artist ,original at its finest. Thank you to Cliff and the Shadows.
@santanugmail I love watching Cliff - HE REALLY IS THE GREATEST - His voice is still SUPERB - even after all these Years and The Shadows are my favourite Instrumentalists and they really do compliment Cliff's performance s
Very beautiful performances of Cliff & the Shads, that's why I always/from time to time watch it, never tire viewing Cliff & the Shads, they're my all-time favorite.
Malaysia can never forget Cliff and the Shadows. They are really great . Imagine at the age 70, they sing and perform just like yesterday. I mean I am 76 now and still great admirer of Cliff and shadows since 1962
I'm British but learned to play guitar in Singapore when it was part of Malaysia. Local bands like the Quests whom I met still played a lot of Shadows songs and also wrote their own songs in that style. I am now 80, live in Prague and play in 4 local bands. I will always have a soft spot for Singapore.
My heart is singing. Love it when the boys start that Shadows Shuffle. Unique to them. It is quite lovely to feel young again. Thanks Cliff and Shads. You sound even better nowadays
Nobody ever heard of Cliff Richard & The Shadows in my neighborhood, but, I did and I still listen to them all the time! The reason is because I have relatives in England! I had the 45 of THE YOUNG ONES.
Their ages never affect their performsnce! ...They really one of the best performers I admired together with the well known Ventures.... i loved them!!! ..... From the philippines
Cliff & the shadows are superb & awesome, beyond words. I was a great fan of Sir Cliff since I was in my 20s, now I'm 70. Cliff is very humble and a very good singer with great voice & songs and a great dancer and entertainer too. God bless him and the shadows. ❤ from your fans in Singapore
Sir Cliff Richard and the Shadows has always been my favorite since 1960 up to now and will always be from Diana Parkin, and thank you you Tube for making his shows possible to watch thank you.😊
I grew up listening to cliff and the shadows my family were big fans , as a youngster I saw cliff and the shadows in concert ,I was totally in ore always excellent performances. I also saw cliff in his theatre performances also fabulous. I'm middle-aged now and still listen to cliff and the shadows ,great performers .xoxo❤
I am a singer and have been singing these songs since PA fell off the bus! Cliff's songs are timeless. I have been singing them to audiences for 60 years and they are always well received. Thank you Sir Cliff Richard and the Shadows.
It's a shame that good music such as this is not around anymore. Even my favorite classic country has gone into the pits, to me, it's just noise now days. I won't even lend an ear to it.
@Gene Smith It's not that good music isn't around anymore, it's that you only listen to your small time slot. It's not around you because you're cut off from it
These are some up tempo tunes that Sir Cliff Richards and The Shadows gifted us with a wide selection. And I started taking music 🎶 to heart and hearing this sweet music as early as 3 years old,so music doesn’t care how old you are,just love what you love ❤️ 🎉so it feeds your soul.It’s music food!
lovely performance , oldies but bring the memories of these times forever . Congratulations for the band , young generations can only learn of the Pros. 🎸 🎶
Before The Beatles there was Cliff and The Shadows, and they are still performing more than 50 years later, and with the same sound and level of performance, ASTONISHING!!!!
Brilliant selection of songs played by cliff and the shadows . Music like this can't just end can it , top class entertainment. Final reunion tour , just blows everything a way before and after them. Sound quality 👌
Ive always loved Cliff and The Shadows since i 1st heard their records in fact I was so inspired by the Shadows that i took up playing the guitar and founded a group in 1962 playing mostly The Shadows tunes Wonderful memories Cliff and The Shadows thank you
Thank you for this upload. Thank you to Cliff Richard and the Shadows. I was giving standing ovations in front of my laptop as I danced to your music. What a performance by everyone. Awesome guitars, drums, keyboard and beautiful performance by everyone. You all are still at your very prime. What fitness! this is how we all must mellow. God bless Cliff Richard and the Shadows. Love and respect from India.
Have been a fan of Cliff n The Shadows since the 60s. He is very very known n famous all over the world except-The good ole USA. He even released an album in the US titled “I’m Nearly Famous”. So sad that the US is missing out on those timeless beautiful songs n instrumental originals.
Only because the USA thinks Elvis is the best. Americans don't look further than the States they don't see what's going on in the outside world. I lived there for 10 yrs, yet I was shocked at the fact that some Americans thought I should be black because I came from South Africa. Wake up and smell the roses. Cliff has been here a few times for shows in the past. I met him personally as he sang in a revival meeting for our church held in a large theater. He is blessed. Look up on Google what Cape Town, South Africa, looks like. It's better than the French Riviera and cheaper. Enjoy Cliffs music for many more years, and I'm now 73 years old and have been listening since I was in Grade 7.🎶🎵🎼🎸
I am now 94 and my son taught me about Cliff Richards and the sh Shadows all those years ago. Unfortunately my son went to that better place 3 years ago but he was with me and watching those young ones tonight on this wonderful thing called technology. Thankyou Cliff and the shadows for wonderful memories..
Cliff and the Shadows at their pick of stardom, I was first year high school and now I am already 74 yo still cliffs music roar around my wonderful memories music never dies...jun aviso
I am 61 and i first discovered the Shadows in 1975 with the first compilation L.P i bought then....APACHE , FBI , GUITAR TANGO was on that great album..Then came a music show called MUSIC STORY , and i fell in love with the music of CLIFF...MOVE IT , THEME FOR .... Well , all those great early songs of Cliff... Then came my first tour in germany in 1977 , we first stopped in AACHEN where i bought that great double album with all Cliff's early hits...I still have it and i will love it for ever..❤❤ Thank you Cliff...Hope to meet you , one of these days...😊
Long live Cliff and the Shadows! May your music lived on forever and ever and ever for generations till generations.....nobody can produce these kind of classic songs and music anymore...
After meeting Hank in Twickenham London and him telling me he had bought a Yamaha FG200 for £40 when I asked what guitar I should start on I was amazed he didn't recommend a strat. A friend who moved to Perth Australia and lives near Hank was invited around for a meal. An iconic band with a great sound. A thoroughly enjoyable video. Even the Beatles were fans...
I'm now 72 and there's never ever been a band better than Cliff and the Shads' to me...Ive even been around the world to see them live..Wonderful wonderful music, rock and times and most of all the pleasure they've given to millions the world over. Thank you thank you for the most special times in our lives. There aren't the words to express the joy we've had in our lives given to us by you guys, Cliff and The Shadows....
Great video. Amazing band and Cliff Richards still amazing singer. So great hearing all the great hit songs by Cliff and Shadows. Memories brought into real life. Well presented.
