Cliff and Hank 1970

Here's an interesting clip, where we can see Hank and Cliff with a Rock'n'Roll medley.

Who's the rest of the band? I will guess Alan Hawkshaw on piano and Mo Foster on bass guitar?
Who is the left handed rhythm guitar player??

I think this clip is very great.

Best regards
Rune

An intriguing mix of two separate performances - one studio, one open air. Hank, I assume, was between bands at the time?! No more Shads for the time being and MWF were still just around the corner! Yes, very interesting!

A very interesting clip,anybody know what the show was? could be Dave Richmond on bass and I think the girl backing singers were The Breakaways ex Vernons Girls which had Joe Brown`s wife in the line up. Hank did have a solo career round about this time.

....and there's Hank's Greenburst Burns Marvin with the oddly placed and perhaps oversized upper horn scratchplate piece again! :)

The clip is from 'Cliff in Scandinavia', 26th Decemeber 1970. The show was also shown on the BBC (a slightly revised edition) minus some of the obvious bits shot for local consumption. The outdoor setting also featured in the Cliff & Hank in Skansen concert broadcast on 11th April 1971 and featured Norrie Parramour conducting the small orchestra and all the backing muso's have been identified. :thumbup:
