Cosy never live in a concert of the Shadows?

I think you are 100% about Cosy, and I have never heard a live performance of "Blue Star"

Although not The Shadows, I'm pretty certain that Bruce Welch's Shadows did Blue Star - possibly at the first Shadowmania in 1998.

Both Cosy (http://www.4shared.com/video/0MJxebzq/10_-_Cosy.html) and Blue Star (http://www.4shared.com/video/PJzZdYpG/17_-_Blue_Star-Peace_Pipe.html) were porformed by Bruce and co. at the 2008 Shadowmania.

Just listened to Bruce Welchs Shadows playing Blue Star/Peace Pipe Live, but without detering from Phil Kellys excellent playing - and this guy is good
What I meant was THE SHADOWS Hank - Bruce and the boys never played cosy or Blue star live, I wonder why ? maybe their playlist needed to have the Hits
as opposed to obscure tracks from albums, What the fans want to hear !! is what they should get.

I think that Shads sets, in the early sixties, only lasted for 8 or 9 songs (half an hour roughly?)... if they played everything that everybody wanted them to play they'd be on stage for about 4 hours!

As a matter of interest Cosy was on an early setlist for the 2002 Hank tour as part of a shads medley (which ended up as GOLDEN STREET -MUSTANG-KONTIKI-SLEEPWALK-STRANGER-DANCE ON-SHAZAM)
It never got as far as being tried properly with the whole band but Hank did play the first part once in a rehearsal before it was dropped. JJ
