Hank Marvin on Later With Jools Holland 27/05/2014 

Hank is so humble and modest. He refuses to take credit for his accomplishments and contributions. He is, to a degree, self deprecating and he throws humour into the mix it as well.

My brother, started playing guitar because of Hank, me too. I'm 70 yes old my brother 73. He is still playing and I'm still singing. Thanks Hank.

Hank makes it look supremely easy, but it's almost impossible to do it just like he does. A truly brilliant beautiful human being, with a musical talent like no other.

Hank is such an amazing technician. His tone and consistency is just so hard to replicate. And so many different tones. You couldn’t find more different songs than Apache and FBI - completely different tones, styles, genres and techniques, but you immediately think of him when you hear them, because he invented it all. British Rock - he was the genesis. He was the guitar sound that the Beatles, Stones tried to replicate. I mean, even in the 1970s, Jimmy Page’s jangly jagged playing can be traced back to Hank playing FBI. And all of that is why all guitarists still worship the ground he walks on

Hank was not well known in the US, even though Cliff Richards was popular. But George Harrison put it best when he said "No Shadows, no Beatles". And by extension. No Stones,Zeppelin, Floyd, etc. I wish I had discovered Hank's music during b the 60s. Long live Hank Marvin!!

Hank in days gone by loved beside my lovely aunt Emily who unfortunately was deaf , she was so wonderful. Hank came to my mothers home one time and played guitar , amazing. Skilled as he was dedicated and gifted. Always practice a great deal. Well accomplished. Gave so much joy to the world with awesome playing!!! Thank you so very much.

one word sums up hank "LEGEND". such a lovely, polite and witty gentleman.my all time hero.

01:16: He just hits an open A string and you immediately know it's Hank Marvin. Such an iconic sound.

Hank Marvin..Mister apache!!! a great guitar hero

Long before the music world fell apart, we had Hank and the Shadows.

Hank Marvin. A truly class act.

Truly a guitar legend..

Excellent! Love hank and the shadows, and that whole English era! 👌🏽👌🏽🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿👍🏽

Hank Marvin is a grace guitarist in the world, he wonderful played a lot of amazing musics in his life.

Hank Marvin...LEGEND!!

Hank. Absolute legend

Way back, all young would-be guitarists, me included, wanted a Fender, and to play like Hank Marvin. Most of us went on to other jobs, but we took with us every note of every tune he ever played so originally, and brilliantly.

Hank is iconic.

🎸 🎶 NO one can imutet that. Just a unbetable guitarist

Always good to see and hear Marvin.

He should've been Knighted by now...true gentleman and a huge influence on all those great guitarists of the 60's and after... brilliant player..!!!

The master at work with the iconic red Fender stratocaster what a classic combination

Hanks the main man great to see him on Jools Holland nice guitar strat

Mr.Hank Marvin...i heard your guitar since i was kid...until now Mr.Hank... i like ur playing guitar...go ahead until tired...👍👍👌👌

What a sound. It is so recognizable! It indicates and represents Hank.

Perths finest !

One of the true Masters of the Stratocaster...his sound is synonymous with great guitar sound and technique. Did I mention he is a true gentleman as well?

Hank and Lonnie Donogan, made thousands of British boys pick up guitars and create a musical tsunami. Thank God.

WOW this man is timeless - and an English Gentleman (lives here in Perth Western Australia) the instantly recognised guitar rifs and tunes written and played by men like this will never be repeated - Here are some names and ages that old people like me (50) may relate to and not realise where the years have gone - Bob Dylan (75) Carlos Santana (69) Don Henley (69) Neil Young (71) John Fogerty (71) Paul Simon & Art G. (75) Neil Diamond (75) - I saw this old man (Neil) in concert 3 yrs ago and I was blown away, what a legend. Mark Knofler (67) Mark is my personal alltime guitar/sing/writer legend. David Gilmore (70) Roger Waters (73) Willie Nelson (83) - (note: I will miss seeing Willie by a few hours in Belton TX in March business trip - would love to shake this mans hand/bucket list) Mike Oldfield (63) Mick Jagger & Keith Richards (73)..when Keith finally passes away in another 265 years time they will make guitar Zombie movies about him. Nobody reading this will still be alive when Keith dies. Jimmy Page (73) a small list of those legends that are still with us - Now some we have lost recently.... The original Gangsters first with respect - John Lee Hooker (88yo, 2001) & BB King (89yo, 2015) - then a shock, Gary Moore (58yo. 2011) Jimi Hendrix (27yo, 1970)...fame has destroyed many since in the same way. Karen Carpenter (32yo, 1983)...in my opinion the most beautiful voice I have ever heard...just so tragic. For us Aussies - I put this old Gentleman first for obvious reasons - Slim Dusty (76yo, 2003) Bon Scott (33yo, 1980) Greame Strachan (49yo, 2001-Shirl the Curl - Skyhooks) Jon English (66yo, 2016) Doc Neeson (67yo,2014) Ted Mulry (day before his 54th Bday, 2001) Marc Hunter - Dragon (44yo, 1998)...there are many more, these are ones that came to mind for me...

Hank the founder of Microsoft 🤯😂😂 love this guy

Hank never seems to age

Shadows ' guitar produces sounds with sharp and metallic clarity.

I love Hank's fiesta red Strat.

Love a bit of hank

Hank,most influencial guitarist ever! taught me to play,though i,ve never met him!

Gilmour , Knopfler , Brian May even Tony Iommi and Ritchie Blackmore are fans of Hank .

Hank Marvin, é o mago do rock instrumental, e o The Shadows é uma lenda. O som da sua Fender Stratocaster é inigualável.

Legend!!!!❤

i think this man is so pure like cliff Richard and both of them stayed away from Drugs thats why they still young, and sorry about alot of superstars, they thought with Drogs can creat music and alot of them deid too young, and im a greatfull of what he did that i learned alot from his music, and by the way if you look at his old videos with Shadows he was almost find him standing at the corner and he was the head and the creater of the Shadow, thats mean he is so pure and so simple man, God bless him.

WOOOOOOW!Forever Shadows! I💖 all your fantastic guitar music!Long Live Hank!💙🌞🎸🎸🎸💖🥁🌞💚🎶👍

Cliff gave Bruce the legendary Strat for producing Cliff's hit album in the 70s.

Nice to see a Burns Marvin guitar in the band with the young lads hanging on his every word.

The word legend is not misplaced when describing hank brilliant sound Lee Hambleton from Sheffield

Legend! I grew listening to The Shadows, I love performing Shindig and Footapper in the rock and roll sets.

Great man.

Shame the longer Later with Jools interview with Hank and Darrell Higham and Imelda May has not been put on youtube. Darrell was clearly in awe of him. A kid in a sweetshop!

Hank and the Shadows was the best clear cut sound around, groups who used those fuzz box gimmicks distorted their guitars to such a degree you couldn't identify what sort of guitar they were playing, It's amazing how many different sounds Hank could get out of one guitar, and he never made the guitar screech like some groups did to the point where it hurt your ears and you wanted to get away from it. another great guitarist is Mark Pnopfler of Dire Straits fame. You instinctively knew who they were by the sound of their guitars and playing style.

I think it's true to say that without Hank there probably would be no British guitar rock. And The Shadows were enormous - even overshadowing their frontman. The lord of tone.

El actual extraordinario y maravilloso Hank Marvin me complace sobre manera que nos hayamos hecho juntos viejos, es un honor seguirte viendo Hank Dios te siga conservando, amo tus Fender el saber que tu la tocaste es como un trofeo, tus manos son mágicas.

the most influential guitarist in rock music to this day.

Timeless Talent

what a legend

Legende mit Charme, Charisma und einer unglaublichen Bühnenpräsenz

'Legend' is pefectly appropriate for Hank. I have a Hank Marvin signature Strat and it's the best guitar that I own. I'm not doing Hank covers or anything, it's just a fantastic guitar.

Good music in yuo guitar Hank Marvin

Legend the Real Deal

Jools you are a legend

There is a story that Brian May let Hank have a go on Brian’s home-made guitar. The result sounded like Hank playing a strat and not a bit like Queen.

His smile resembles the beauty.

Hank B baby 🇬🇧🎸😎

Had dinner with Hank in 1975 when I was dating Petrina Lordon (Gerry Lordon's ex wife who wrote "Apache"..a nicer man you coudn't hope to meet

I thought Clapton was king until I discovered Hank Marvin.

Hank doesn't look much older!

amazing guitar player!

Hank Marvin ! mis respetos !!! Para mi es el guitarrista más influyente de la nueva música surgida a finales de los 50’ y principios de los 60’. Ha inspirado a generaciones y a - “todos, sin excepción” -los grandes guitarristas posteriores. Aparte de que el hombre es todo un caballero, por partida doble. Desde Venezuela 🇻🇪 mi reconocimiento y eterna admiración

Beste gitarist aller tijden !!!!!!!

Mr Hank Marvin the legend what else can I say

He once said after hearing john and Paul's demo of from me to you they will be a passing phase

stratocaster players usually steer clear of the bridge pickup but Hank practically lives there and makes it work, also that looks like a custom trem arm that has been bent a certain way to suit him, he is also a better guitar player than people think he is, ive seen him go way out his box doing great stuff with his son

I recently heard hank list all the various guitars he's played... We all know the strat is his favourite but I've seen photos of the shadows in the 60s playing Burns of London guitars but hank never mentioned the Burns guitar... Which I find odd... . Absolutely icon is hank 👍

Also had one of the first Strat in Britian

МАРВИН.Ваша.ГИТТА..БОГГ.

A pity longer version of the interview with Daryl Higham is not on RU-vid. Good to see the younger bands hanging on Hank's every word with one sporting. Burns guitar which I bet is now autographed!

Pass me a sandwich, I'm Hank Marvin

Unique is the word.

He’s still got his Geordie accent

BRUCE WELCH said HANK was a great player at 16 years of age he was playing notes . . real notes . enough said .

The Shadows ont toujours été imités mais jamais égalés

He was a hero even for Neil Young

I see his daughter Tahlia just to the left behind Jools Holland.

Greatest guitar player all time, and he has a lot of competition.just sayin'

Influence on hell of a lot guitarist over the years who have listened to him guitarist's have got better players of course still got his own sound but hank was one of them who started people to play wrote some good tunes

Enjoyed that but here in London, I have to go because I am really hungry bordering on being famished. You could say "I'm bleedin' Hank Marvin"...

Hank Marvin THE BOSS .

Wspaniały gitarzysta,szkoda że Shadows już nie grają.

hes a geordie lad so id love too know what music he grew up with and really got him into the guiter .. Chuck berry maybe coz there werent eny people that played the guiter in Newcastle when he was growing up well not the way he liked it

I wonder if he ever though his name would be used to mean hungry.

He’s a very talented guitarist and a true legend but at his age he’s not kidding anyone with that wig

Hank mentions at the start that the echo is a bit weird tonight. And it is, I assume that that's his amp behind him and it's atypical. It appears to be a Vox something that has been miked up. Could anyone suggest why the sound is as it is? Presumably it would be because of a supply? Technical issue? And relating to the longer session referred to.

Funny how Bruce Welsh has Hank’s strat. He’s right - it was actually the first Strat to ever be owned outside of the USA, in fact. I’m surprised he’s so relaxed. It’s probably worth 2 million dollars!

I remember Kellogs Corn Flakes holding a competition for one of those guitars..I didn`t win one though.

The possession/ownership of the original red strat is clearly an issue between these guys. Hank is nice about it, but it’s clear it’s Cliff’s guitar and not Bruce’s.

With respect guys -every interviewer asks the same questions. It's Shads fans primarily who watch these videos guys - give us NEW news, not once again how a tremolo works. Who is it the interviewers think they are informing - the young girls sitting in the front rows? How bored HBM must be at times ! Still the master though.

¿alguien me puede decir como se llama la canción que esta antes de “Telestar"

What colour is that stratocaster? Does not look exactly like a fiesta red, this one has more red

what a hustler

On yuo guitar good music

MR. HANK.. sorry SIR HANK.. that looks good mate. Would you ever be able to perform in Melbourne again??? It's just down the road..😉 Please, you and your wonderful loving wife ( home and game keeper) are welcome to stay in your own living accommodations, which are separate in our house. We are also a JW family and admirers of your music. My son-in-law has had the privilege to meet you as JW , Also Mr. Benson and the former Prince. Because Shelton Muller is also an international photographer, a musician. Please come and stay with us. We would be honoured. We will be Stum about your visit Brother Hank.🥰🙏👍

It's a bit upsetting to see Hank here minimised to simply "a sound", plucking a couple of notes.

I need to eat I'm Hank Marvin
