Wow. This has totally made my day. Thank you so much for posting. Bruce looked utterly fabulous and I hope he had the time of his life doing this. I would happily pay to see this under concert conditions. Wonderful Land was a revelation. Bruce is far and far away the best rhythm and guitar player around, the power of that right hand and the precision of his left transcend brilliance. As my old manager Ray Lloyd used to say Bruce strummed a guitar, strummed as in SSTTRRRUUUUmmmmeeedd. The sound is huge. And then all those tricky fiddly bits which is really the drumming equivalent of 8's and 16's. His chords are very modern and soulful. I will be watched over and over to be trained again by the best teacher I ever had. Tommy and Bruce make a wonderful team and I am so delighted due reverence is coming to Bruce in shedloads which is what he deserves. The best there was, the best there is and the best there ever will be.

best wishes

Nick

Bruce's G chord in Wonderful Land, with three open strings ringing out goes right back to his skiffle days but, hey, doesn't it give us rhythm players confidence! None of yer barre chord nonsense - if Bruce plays his G chord that way it's definitely OK!

Thanks very much for the superb videos. Now, how about a 'Bruce And Tommy Play The Shadows Unplugged' album, it would be great if those performances are anything to go by.
If you read this Bruce, please give it serious consideration, I think we are all resigned to the fact there will never be another new Shads album but, an album by these two brilliant musicians would be magic and a worthy substitute. C'Mon Bruce, pretty please.

Regards to all
