Veteran rock ‘n’ roller Jet Harris who was the original bass guitarist with The Shadows has lost his brave battle against cancer.
Jet, who was 71 and lived in Bembridge, Isle of Wight, is understood to have died in the early hours of this morning. Tributes have started to pour in from Shadows fans around the world.
Sad news. I have just visited his latest web site "The Journey" and reading through the Discography section has taken me on a trip down Memory Lane. His music was a part of my growing up.

Re: RIP Jet Harris.
Damn! That's a shock.
Another Rock&Roll Hero gone.
I remember seeing Cliff and the Gang, way back in the day at the Shepherds Bush Odean one Saturday morning. I'm pretty sure they were still Cliff Richard And The Drifters in those days.
