Having just returned from the Sunday performance at the NIA, it did cross my mind that it would have been a thoughtful gesture if it had been mentioned during the performance a comment or dedication to past Shadows - past and present - Tony Meehan, John Rostill, Iam Samwell, Jerry Lordan (mighty big influence!) etc. plus those still present Jet, Alan and Licorice and Cliff (Hall). Don't forget the first Cliff hits didn't feature any of the current Shadows/Drifters on the released 45s - seesion players were the order of the day! The Shadows in the form of Jet, Tony, Bruce and Hank didn't feature till much later!
Get well soon Jet, at least the thoughts of this web site are with you at this time.
