THE SHADOWS
Shadows - Boxing The Shadows 1980-1990 [2017] (11 x CD's)
The Shadows remain one of the most prolific bands of the last 60 years. They had 31 hit singles (plus 30 with Cliff Richard), which include 16 Top 10 hits (plus 25 more with Cliff), 5 No. 1 hits (plus 7 with Cliff). They’ve also spent 361 weeks on the albums chart (plus another 400+ with Cliff), selling tens of millions of records since 1958, and defining the sound that influenced many of the world’s greatest guitarists. The Shadows achieved a phenomenal run of hit albums throughout the 1960's/70s, with their last two reaching the No. 1 spot. In 1980 they moved to a new label, Polydor, where during a ten-year association they would produce an additional eleven albums. With input from The Shadows and their management, ‘Boxing The Shadows 1980-1990’ is a collection of their musical output from that decade. Packaged in a deluxe 7x7 hardback case-bound book, with each CD slotting into its own reproduced mini album ‘sleeve’, this 11CD/163-track anthology includes all of those newly recorded albums. The set also includes several non-album B-sides, as well as a couple of single remixes. (Amazon)

Many thanks Butterboy for posting these Shadows albums, good to have them in their original formats. Many of these tracks have been made available on compilations, but rarely in the form of the original releases. Although The Shadows legacy is really contained within their EMI releases of the 60s and 70s, these Polydor recordings are, by and large, at least interesting. Truth to tell, they did lapse into middle of the road territory - particularly latterly in covering hits of the times - but their style, delivery and execution always remained exemplary. I am very pleased to have captured these albums, so (again) many thanks to you Butterboy.
