“Polio swept through #Winnipeg in the early ’50s. Neil had it and I did too. So did my brothers. We all had it at the same time. But Neil was always very focused. It didn’t matter what obstacle was there, he overcame it. I felt the same.
Neil and I were among a bunch of teenage guys who were learning how to play guitar and starting #bands in Winnipeg. Every Sunday, there was a #RadioShow called Hello Britain, where they’d play all the top hits from #England. It might be #ShaneFenton And The Fentones or Cliff Richard And #TheShadows. Then it was just The Shadows or #TheOutlaws. We copied all this stuff and played it on stage.
We’d get the bus to the community centre and Neil would be there with #TheSquires. We’d stay there all night and watch them. I was pretty amazed when he started playing the folk clubs on his own. He radically changes his mind and his direction, to the shock of everyone. But then, he’s done this all his life. I used to go the #Riverboat [Coffee House] in #Toronto all the time. I saw #GordonLightfoot, #JoniMitchell and Ramblin’ #JackElliott. It was quite fantastic. I saw Neil many times there, just acoustic. I’d think, ‘Yeah, he can do it. He can be a folk singer.’
When I left in ’65 to tour the States with #TheGuessWho I sent a note back to Neil, saying, “You gotta get out of town. This is where you really get appreciated.” So he left and went to #ThunderBay, then #FortWilliam, and met #StephenStills. Then – boom – he started #BuffaloSpringfield.”
Randy Bachman telling Neil Young to, ‘get out of town’.

"We Don't Talk Anymore" is a song recorded by #CliffRichard, written by #AlanTarney and produced by #theShadows' rhythm guitarist, #BruceWelch. It was released in 1979 as a single and reached number one in the #UKSinglesChart in August 1979, remaining there for four weeks, Richard's tenth UK number one and his first since "#Congratulations" in 1968.

Did you ever wonder what "My heart would go on" would sound like if it was played by 'The Shadows'?
I'd posit, something like this.

The year 2024 was the 70th anniversary of the inimitable #Fender #Stratocaster. My #guitar hero will always be Hank Marvin of #TheShadows.

Musical Interlude: The Shadows were a British band that had some popularity in the pre-Beatles era, doing most instrumentals and also were a difficult band to pigeonhole as their styles and influences ran the gamut. Here's a sample...
"Shadow Rock," performed by The Shadows.

#TBT #CurrentlyWatching They're pretty much unknown here in USA, but the Shadows were a huge influence on multiple generations of British rock'n'roll from the Beatles to Black Sabbath and beyond. They seem like hella nice people too.
