Bonzo Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 (edited) I was looking around Youtube and found this gem from the late 50's. Sir Cliff Richard and the Shadows doing arguably the first real Rock and Roll song in Britain, Move It. Campy intro on an early British TV show but they appear to be playing live. I had forgot about the lead guitar player, Hank Marvin. He was doing licks then like Buddy Holly and James Burton were doing in The States. Legend has it he had the first Fender Stratocaster in England. A lot of the later British guitar gods credit Hank Marvin as one of their inspirations including Brian May. Just a very cool look back at early British Rock IMHO. Edited April 27, 2015 by Bonzo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
