Driftin' and Jet Black

[donna plasky]

Hi, everybody. The last few days have been full of fun facts about album covers, sweaters, etc., so I was wondering if I could add one more to the mix. I'll bet one or more of you out there will know the answers to these two questions. I don't know the answers, so these are real questions:

In the tune Driftin', which three Shadows say, "One, two, aaahhhhh!" My best guess would be Hank, then Bruce, and then Jet.

And in Jet Black, which three Shadows say "Jet Black, Jet Black, Jet Black." I don't have a guess on that one!

Tonight I was practising my guitar and, just to take a break from playing the same tune over and over, I downloaded the tabs to Driftin. In the "world of tab language" I got to the part where it says:

2-2-0-0-2 | 2-2-0-0-2
2-2-0-0-2 | 2-2-0-0-2

My family probably heard me say "One, two, aaahhhh" when I played that part...and they must have thought I've finally gone crazy!

Thanks everybody.

Best wishes,
Donna

I think the vocal interlude in "Driftin'", where it goes "One, two, aahhhhh!" is done by just Hank and Bruce in this order: Hank, Bruce and again Hank. The members doing "Jet Black, Jet Black, Jet Black" are Hank, Bruce and Jet in that order.
