Fueron el primer supergrupo británico, mucho antes que los Beatles. En 1959 comenzaron como "The Drifters", acompañando a Cliff Richard, entonces el ídolo del rock and roll de Gran Bretaña, en sus discos. Luego, después de cambiar el nombre debido a la probabilidad de confusión con la compañía de canto estadounidense del mismo nombre, eran más que las sombras de Cliff. En 1960 los Shadows tuvieron su primer single con "Apache", y le siguieron innumerables números. En realidad, la banda no había hecho más que copiar el sonido del guitarrista solista estadounidense Duane Eddy. Pero luego derrotaron a su maestro por mucho. Incluso si copiaron títulos de su modelo a seguir, como "Shazam". En 2004/2005, el guitarrista Hank Marvin y el guitarrista rítmico Bruce Welch se fueron de gira por última vez con el baterista Brian Bennett, quien se unió a ellos a principios de los sesenta. El presente concierto fue grabado en Cardiff, Gales.
