Cover mainly of Chan Romero original with a little improvising, not so much The Swinging Blue Jeans version.

Hi Bob,

That’s a great number, really sounds good with your impeccable playing style and creativity, but possibly doing numbers which people associate with vocals as instrumentals can split opinions and they may have to stand out more in their own right as they don’t have the same association/nostalgic appeal?

I don’t think you should be too phased about this as it seems you have built a very successful career presenting these to appreciative audiences and in my opinion should simply continue to share your music for the personal satisfaction of “getting it out there”. You also have to consider that whilst this is primarily a Shadows fan based forum, people have responded to previous numbers posted (admittedly, not all entirely complimentary).

Regards

Gary
