A CRITICALLY acclaimed Cliff Richard and The Shadows tribute act is performing at the Assembly Hall this weekend.
Simon Goodall and The Bourne Again Shadows will be talking to the stage on Saturday 2nd April, as part of their 2022 tour.
The band’s repertoire includes Cliff Richard chart-toppers like Summer Holiday, Living Doll, Move It and Please Don’t Tease, and classic Shadows’ number one hits including Apache, Wonderful Land, Foot Tapper and Dance On.
Simon Goodall, who is a professional solo and session singer, developed his ‘Tribute to Cliff’ act after many people had commented just how much he sounded like Cliff. He teamed up with The Bourne Again Shadows for a debut concert in 2014, and they have worked together regularly since.
The event promoter says, “Simon Goodall and The Bourne Again Shadows are critically acclaimed as the most authentic Cliff and The Shadows tribute act. And looking at the comments on www.cliffshadowstribute.co.uk, it is clear to see why.
“Listening to some of their music, Bob Henrit, who played with Adam Faith, Argent, Don McLean and The Kinks said, ‘I really thought I was listening to a recording of Cliff and the guys! How good is that?’
“Fellow musician Pete Lincoln, who worked in Cliff Richards’ band, commented, ‘The emulation of The Shadows’ sound is spot on, and the ‘Cliff’ vocals are uncanny’. Even Sir Cliff himself has said that the band vocalist Simon Goodall ‘….is without doubt the best ‘Cliff Sound-alike in the business’.”
