Critics Review

‘We bang on all the time about the bands that deserve more recognition, but seriously…..The Shadows. Bob rights this heinous wrong. It’s a fantastic book.’ * Word in Your Ear *
‘This is the last great untold story of the beat boom era – and Bob Stanley is the perfect person to tell it. Without the Shadows, the story of British pop is hard to imagine; and without Bob Stanley, it’s even harder to think of a writer who could truly do it justice. The Shadows were the first great innovators of British rock ’n’ roll. What happened afterwards is unthinkable without them. This is a truly incredible tale and no-one could tell it better. Lurking in The Shadows were some of the most fascinating, complex British musicians to don instruments. Bob Stanley’s book expertly brings them and their music into sharp context. I blazed through it’ – Pete Paphides
‘Bob Stanley has done it again. This is a great book’ – David Quantick
