Shadows: The best of The Shadows

180 gram vinyl. "'Apache"' was the first of a series of hits for the Shadows, whilst "'Man Of Mystery"'/"'The Stranger"' reached Number 5 in the UK in 1960. The following year saw the release of four singles, all of which were Top ten hits in the UK: "'FBI"', "'The Frightened City"', "'Kon-Tiki"' and "'The Savage"'. Although the Shadows had a brief renaissance in the Seventies, largely fuelled by their Eurovision hit "'Let Me Be The One"', this compilation documents the golden years of 1958 to 1961 - four brief years during which a unique sound was created, often imitated but never equalled, and which can instantly be recognised as "'The Sound of the Shads"'.
