Cliff Richard and the Shadows


Cliff Richard and the Shadows, after 50 years of on off partnership they have reunited for one final hurrah in celebration of their golden anniversary, Glasgow in cluding two dates. While they could never hope to refootage the hunger and impact of their 1950s avatar, a bunch of silver they made a tight sound haired rock 'n' rollers. Sir Cliff, the showbiz trouper in his shocking pink jacket, was in fine expressive voice. The two hour plus set was divided between vintage rock 'n' roll and wholesome bobbysoxer pop, such as Lucky Lips and Livin' Doll, the latter introduced by Cliff with a speech deriding the short termism of modern pop vehicles such as The X Factor.During one dreamy interlude, the sight of Cliff, now in a pristine white suit, was too much for one fan, who shouted "I Love You". But that was a rare hot-under-the-collar moment in a cosy nostalgia trip culminating in Summer Holiday, the prophetic Bachelor Boy, Move It and a joyful Young Ones.

Sir Cliff Richard and The Shadows say goodbye at Echo Arena


THERE’S nothing like a final, last-to-chance-to-see, farewell tour and The Shadows enjoyed the first one so much a few years ago they decided to do it all over again.
But this time they had Sir Cliff along with them and after all, saying goodbye is never easy and if you’ve had a career as long as theirs it’s bound to take a little while to get round everyone.
A sold out ECHO Arena the biggest crowd I’ve ever seen there proved that the demand is still there for two acts who are old enough to be grandfathers to most of the acts recenttly in the charts.
