	you'll have to hurry up, Errol there aint many of em left.........originals that is..... Shadows music isnt what it used to be............its too technical these days the tune tends to get lost in the special effects.............one time it was down to the guitars and the players, but much of it comes out of mysterious electronic boxes....... mind you the talent is still there, but...........
