Item Number 160529334033 on E-Bay.

Hank and the boys (??) have released their last tours tracks in backing form.
And the disc is displayed sitting on "Hank's" guitar (well thats what the ad says) :?

Hi John

This is not the Shadows this is a tribute band called the Fabulous Shadows, reading through the ad it looks like they have recorded the band playing the tracks the fabulous shadows performed on their recent tour for the alzheimers charity. I think the bit about hanks guitar is tongue in cheek

Hi Guys,
Please accept my limited knowledge, But am I correct in saying Hank has never used a Stratocaster guitar on stage with a pearlised scratchplate
someone who knows him well told me he disliked them a lot. Would he lend this band his guitar to advertise with ? I would love to hold one of his
genuine guitars on one of my photo shoots, PLEASE HANK - PLEASE

Hi TrayC

Thanks Steve I thought I was right, I will soon be up there with you experts, I am learning all the time.
Who are The Fabulous Shadows ? They must be fantastic to claim what they claim I have just got to see them, I hope they can live up to expectations.
To see this band is No1 on my to do list.
Thanks

Do they really exist?
Their website only has pictures of their equipment.
