FBI – by The Shadows 1961
The Shadows excited and inspired us all when I was a teenager. I haven’t attempted this old school method of multi tracking for over 50 years. Me and my pal Dave Dilloway used to do this stuff together using the tape recorders of the day. Dave is sadly long gone now, but I have his acoustic guitar thanks to his kindness – the one I used on “The Night Comes Down” and “Jealousy” among others. Tonight instead of a tape recorder I recorded my rhythm part on the lap top – and then played along to it, live into the iPhone camera. Fun ! Who needs multitrack machines ?!! This time in intriguing to me because it’s a minor melody played over a major chord sequence. Hank Marvin’s delivery was always incisive and immaculate. The sound inimitable. I learned so much from him.

Dear friends in America – please protect yourselves by cutting down physical encounters to as close to zero as possible. If you make contact with anyone or anything outside you zone, wash the hands, disinfect. The monster is out of control. My heart aches for you guys in glorious New York, and my beloved New Orleans. Protect – isolate – as much as humanly possible. This is not a rehearsal.
With love – Bri
