As a die hard Shadows fanatic I was over the moon a programme had been made to highlight their 60 years...No mention of MK though..

Yes, it was a good watch, I was surprised there was nothing from Mark, great to hear from David Gilmour though.

if you do not look at the video, sometimes Hank sounds a bit like Mark...
Gilmour looking strikingly handsome, and i am saying this as a healthy straight male, lol..

I agree(me too) but Gilmour has always been hansome, he did some modeling in the 60's :)

Yes indeed, Hank does sound like MK at times. They are both very laid back in their ways too...
And yes, Gilmour looks amazing....

Had a chance to watch the documentary, the story is amazing of course. I just love how similar old successful people look and feel. I've met a couple of those types in my lifetime and they were just like Hank — riding a nice car, 100% chill, kind, humble, down to earth, and absolutely happy. You would wish a life like this to anybody, though it has a lot to do with luck. So I wish luck instead :lol

It's very good indeed. The Shadows and I guess Cliff to a degree have really never let fame dictate....
