Music Deaths: Brian Locking, Played With England's Shadows, Back-Up Band of Cliff Richard

BRIAN LOCKING, 81

Died 8 October 2020

Bass player with the Shadows (from England) from 1961-1963.

Played on some of their biggest hits.  The Shadows are the backing band of England's megastar Cliff Richard., who has sold 250 million records worldwide, but never done too well here in the United States.

His solid "less is more" approach to the bass changed the sound of the Shadows.

Give You Tube a listen for "Foot Tapper" and "Dance On."
