I re-wrote the entire first page from my personal knowledge of the Shadows. I did this without referring to any books, web pages or previous versions in a bid to avoid inadvertantly copying any copyright material. I think the result is OK however I will need to go and re-read The Story Of The Shadows and go through and put in dates, unless anyone else would care to do this in the meantime.

I have researched into the Christmas number one of 1962 using the Guiness book of hit singles and albums 2006 number one timeline and found the box to at error. Return to Sender was number one on Christmas and was only knocked off the top on 3rd January by 'the next time'. I am removing the box. Regards Louis

[edit] Tasty

I've changed some details in the list of albums:

  • 3 albums were listed as compilations, when they were original studio recordings. ("At Their Very Best" was an album release of the re-recorded tracks mentioned in the 1980s article text)
  • 1 album was not marked as being a compilation ("Another String of Hot Hits" is composed mostly of previously released material, except one track "Black Is Black" which was recorded for "Tasty" but not included on the final album.
  • 1 album was omitted (Tasty, 1977). It's the only missing Studio album, so I assume this is in error rather than policy of the "Selected" part of "Selected Discography". Unfortunately I have no information on where it placed in the UK chart, so the list is not yet complete.

[edit] I uploaded the cover images

sometime in the distant past, but have decided to not figure out how to protect them. This is across the board with all the covers that I've added to various articles. If someone thinks that they are a good element in the article, feel free to figure out how to keep them. Carptrash 14:45, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
