Lordan played the song on ukulele to The Shadows while on tour, and liking the song, the group released their own version which topped the UK Singles Chart for five weeks in mid 1960. The Shadows' guitarist Hank Marvin developed the song's distinctive echo and vibrato sound.

    The music industry and marketing giants have these categories they like to put people in; Best Guitarist, Most Influential Guitarist, Best this or that. There is no category in which to place Jeff Beck. He transcends any earthly plane with his masterful musical expression. He plays pure, almost simple; nothing is wasted as he is completely synced to even to the smallest vibration. His mind gives birth to notes as a tonal entity, each one formed and uniquely shaped just right for its brief moment in space. Each song is a mystical journey to some place and your mind is captured and taken along for the ride.

    D800Lover, I'll never forget the first time I heard Jeff Beck back in 69. During the time I had just bought the album Beck-Ola after hearing it once. It had All shook up and The Hangman's Knee. In 72 I picked up The Jeff Beck Group and I fell in love with Going Down. And the album's went on from there Blow by Blow, Jeff Beck the Jan Hammer group ,Rough and Ready and Wired. He can make that Strat sound like different instruments. I loved it when he'd use the wang bar and sounded like a steel guitar. When him and Clapton were playing together they were both great, but no one else could play or sound like Beck. Peace bro, and may the tunes play on and on. Good music is a key to happiness in my opinion.

    This is simply one of the best covers of Sleepwalk I've ever heard. It's very faithful to the original. I probably really got into Beck about 1980 and the album was Truth (funny it was released the year I was born). Sure, there are some phenomenal players who can do all kinds of crazy stuff....Jeff Beck does it all! I can't believe he's turning 70 this year! So all you young "whipper-snappers" that want to know something about guitar - listen to Beck! He's still "learning" guitar...once you start learning to play, you never stop learning. And that's the true beauty of it - there is no finish line, no point where you now know everything.

Every morning we would rise at 5:30 with my Dad who’d be off to work by 6:00 as my brother and I would head out to deliver the morning papers in our neighbourhood. So remember when these tunes were hits because of this I guess. A few years later I would have my first slow dance to Sleepwalk - wonder where she is now😊
