@@RetroFoamStudios I have evidence that I wrote this exact comment on KZread, two years ago. Expect a letter from my lawyer... or KZread... or something. 😏

I was taught to play bass by Jet Harris. I got to play on stage with him a few times, too. He would roll the volume on his bass down for sound check, so he could turn it back up during his set when he wanted a bit more volume. We did a bass duel during a performance of Nivram once and he absolutely destroyed me.

That F.B.I cover is a banger! Full cover please? 😁

The shadows were actually said by Tony Iommi a band he listened to often and learned their songs early on into playing guitar, so i guess they are dark and mean to have indirectly inspired heavy metal

They get more credit than you think. Almost every British guitarist from the 60s from Richards to Clapton and Blackmore give the Shadows as an influence. It was the Shadows in Britian and the Ventures in the US. I also think the Ventures and Shadows influenced each other. I know the Ventures covered some of their songs.

Absoloutely!!

Jet Harris has the absolute coolest stage name of all time!!!

Nicknamed "Jet" because he was an ace sprinter at school (100 yards in 10 seconds). Later lost any athletic capability through chain-smoking, an addiction he was never able to get under control, and which eventually killed him. The piece he's playing from 0:19 to 0:28 is called The Man From Nowhere, in a clip from the film Just For Fun (in which he also partnered Tony Meehan, singing Doin' The Hully Gully).

I really like these longer clips. Off the chain and educational. What are the chances. Great content!!

Good to see Jet get some recognition. I played with him a number of times in the early 90s at a regular pub jam session I used to go to. It was particularly pleasing some years later to see him do a proper theatre tour of the UK and deservedly play to bigger audiences who were pleased to see him.

Banging version of FBI fella. Put a full version on here if possible please.

Your videos are a breath of fresh air, always enjoy watching

Fact: The late Sir Christopher Lee (pictured behind Sir Roger Moore in that clip from “The Man With The Golden Gun”) was a British spy during WW2 and was a major inspiration for his cousin Ian Fleming’s legendary character James Bond.

The ShadowHead bit was GREAT! I'm sure people did hear it that way back in the day. Remember, Cliff Richard used have the teen girls screaming, and fainting and wetting the seats in the auditorium. Little did they know.......

The Shadows influenced Black Sabbath as well. There's a shadows tribute CD with Tony Iommi on it.

Jet Harris and Tony Meacham had a #1 hit with a song called 'Diamonds' in January 1963. It was recorded in November 1962, it had an 18yr. old guitarist named Jimmy Page playing acoustic rhythm guitar on it. It was Page's first introduction into the world of British Session Music which he excelled in, and a few years down the road after getting much better he made a name for himself first with the Yardbirds and later with a little band called Led Zeppelin....🎸

@@rockerjim8045 I like all of Led Zeppelin A - to - Z, but I still believe in their debut album Led Zeppelin recorded in 30hrs. in early October 1968(Oct. 1 & 2 I think?) Released in the U.S. on 01/12/69 & in the U.K. on 03/17/69. This first album set the stage for what they became. Led Zeppelin II was a 'monster', Led Zeppelin IV was their 'masterpiece' and Physical Graffiti was their 'opus'. But that first album when I heard that day it came out, I was 15, had already seen Page with the Yardbirds twice, first time with Beck still in the band September '66 & October 67 just with Page, Relf, Dreja and McCarty. That show was the first time I heard 'Dazed and Confused', same music but different lyrics. When I heard it again on the first album I just melted into that song, it had morphed into a sonic odyssey. That whole album was a game changer for music itself and how music was recorded and package and with Peter Grant he helped changed how artist were paid for their music and put the promoters in their place to not rip - off artist. Led Zeppelin, changed everything with that first album. 🎸🎤🎸🥁

Fun fact: Jet Harris and Shadows drummer Tony Meehan were the original rhythm section for the Jeff Beck Group with Rod Stewart.

“Jet” Harris (we’re both ♋️ Cancer-born and BEHS players 😎) must be the subliminal influence that inspired Jack Bruce to take up the Fender VI in the first incarnation of Cream. Also why I’m tempted to bring my Fender VI out from the back of my storage shed as well. 😎🎸

Jack Bruce was playing a six-string bass (dunno if it was a Fender VI) before starting up Cream. He had one during his time with the Graham Bond Organisation, and you can hear him doing a solo on it in their live recording of Big Boss Man.

This geezer is the only KZreadr that consistently makes me genuinely laugh out loud... The bloke is funny as fuck. Although as I've said before, shame he's a Northerner, but you can't have everything in life 😂😂😂😉🎸

If I had to live on the proverbial desert Island with a single CD of music, "Wonderful Land" would be the last song on it. The Shads were magnificent.

As soon as I saw this I was like "The Shadows!"

He had a nice little hit with the instrumental “Diamonds”.

thanks for the sick video dude

The Shadows were one of my fave bands after my Punk cousin and Aunt got me into them in the 80s. The very first Beatles album is full of Shadows style of sound, too.

My first ever ‘proper’ gig. Cliff Richard at Manchester Apollo, 1981. Had been to plenty of folk gigs but that was my first experience of the whole lights, volume, venue type stuff, blew my tiny 7 year old mind. Obviously my Mum was a huge fan of Cliff so that’s why we were there. Must repay her at some point, time for her to appreciate something more aggressive… Still have a quiet little place in my heart for Cliff and the Shadows, just alongside my Metallica, Wildhearts, Southern River Band section 🤘😀

We got the Ventures here in America. A rare time when we got the second tier band. it was YEARS before I heard the Shadows.

Great video Danny! I’m a big Jet fan too and was lucky enough to meet him after a gig at Harrow Arts Centre - maybe 15 years ago. He always had a lot of time for the fans and despite his moody stage persona, he was a very funny guy and an absolute gentleman. A Diamond, you might say! My favourite tunes include; Big Bad Bass, Again, Scarlett O’Hara and of course Nivram. Keep ‘em coming, Danny!

Finally! Some Jet Harris love! ❤️

Golden arm/gun. I see you.

Jet Harris is one of my influences from way back when. I still play along with Shadows records.

Thanks!

Nice one, young Dan. Well worth the effort

What a trailblazer Jet was, and The Shadows generally. To think we wouldn't have Lemmy's playing without him !!

The Shadows are very much badass, and anyone who doesn't think so, just go listen to their tune 'Man of Mystery'!

Love that Bass VI action

Would love to see you do a video about James jamerson ,most people won't even know the name .but will know the songs he played on. Like most of the motown back catalog. Before the severe alcoholism.

Love your vids man 🤘

Of course the solo got muted. What a travesty.

Thanks for the laughs, mate. Cheers

Awesome video Danny, thanks.

John Paul Jones almost ended up in the Shad's.

I enjoyed this one man. Keep it up.

The Shadows were a great band. I was 8 years old when I first heard them, and that triggered my interest in music.

Fantastic job on this video mate! Cheers, Chris / Canadian fan.

Thank you for the video. That was some interesting info. I never knew who Jet Harris was and that he played with the Shadows. It’s amazing how one person could influence so many other bassists and have the lifestyle of many rock stars, beginning in the early ‘60s. You always learn something new every day even about people who played bass all the time.

Great player and profile, thank you 🤘🏼

Thank you

Man With the Golden Arm. 1955 movie starring Frank Sinatra. His character was an ace (pun intended) card dealer (hence the Golden Arm) who also happened to have an "H" problem, if you know what I mean. The movie explored that. His character's name was Frankie Machine, which would be a great name for a punk band. Pretty edgy for 1955. Fantastic jazz/big band soundtrack.

Thanks mate!

Gun, arm, Roger Moore or Sinatra, who cares? Love you Danny, you funny mad bassist.

I want to know what was in that cup! 😂 Great rendition of the song Danny. I agree that we need the full version!👍🏻

That version of FBI you played wasn't far off the version Brian May did with Rossi and Parfitt on rhythm guitar.

I like the hell outta this channel!

i just love your videos you are meant to do THIS this is who you are and being a music lover and audiophile i understand you and that lower register

This video earned my subscription.

My vote for first badass bass player is James Jamerson, who played on most of Motown's hits.

I was a bass player back in the 60s . . . big 'Jet' fan

Love your punk locks, Danny! Keep on Behs-ing!

Jet Harris was my main reason for taking up bass rather than guitar. Nivram nearly blew my young mind and he looked so cool! My first bass was a Framus Star Bass although at that time I didn't know he had played one. I bought it because I couldn't afford a Fender.

Just read the copyright thing! Man! The audio cut at 3:48! I was looking forward to hearing what more Jet could do!

I always thought his best playing with the Shadows/Drifters was on Nivram (which as you may know is Marvin backwards).

I bought my Colorsound Tonebender from Macaris

I think now I understand why he wears caps in his videos

Remember, badass - ad = bass I guess that’s why bass players don’t get paid enough these days…

Jet had the coolest hair and image in the Shadows (sadly the hair went with time). I met him and Bruce Welch in a pub tribute night to Joe Meek. Ironically, when it came to Jet and Tony, he didn't play on all of his biggest hits - due to being too screwed up and ill at the time. Jet gave the name Shadows to the group (formerly The Drifters). The early Shadows instrumentals are terrific. Like Cliff, they started off as cool rockers, but acquired a bit more of a Muzak image in their later careers

The Shadows rule! They also heavily influenced Tony Iommi! 🤘🤘🤘

Jet Harris looks like Mr. Badass in the Apache video compared to the Pinky and Perky look of the other three.
