chardbass Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 The follow-up ad has loads of Eartha Kitts. Vile processed chicken feet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve-soar Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Errr, this advert is about 4 months old. Shadows...mmm...no connection for me. Did some good work by supporting Burns but playing Fender on record. I think Hank had the same monkey glands injected into him at that Swiss clinic that Cliff did back in the 80's.

Delberthot Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 [quote name='chardbass' timestamp='1361550396' post='1987418'] The follow-up ad has loads of Eartha Kitts. Vile processed chicken feet. [/quote] I don't ever listen to adverts but if this one is Hank Marvin = Starvin' then Eartha Kitt = sh!t? Surely not a very good endorsment of one of their own "products" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] In his book 'Pearls and Crazy Diamonds - Fifty Years of Burns Guitars 1952 - 2002' author Per Gjorde suggests the opposite - that Marvin was recording with Burns as early as the 'Dance On' recording (Page 80). It is certainly evident to those au fait with the early Shadows sound that there is a big change in tonality around this time and that while the Shads continued to appear with Fenders, only changing when 'Rise & Fall of Flingel Bunt' came out in 1964, they were using Burns in the studio and, in fact, recorded more tracks with them than they had with Fenders.
