I was going to write a big post all about Rhythm & Greens - but I turn on my computer to see that there's a new episode of We Say Yeah out... all about Rhythm & Greens too!! I'm listening to it right now. Go check them out if you haven't already.
I was feeling lazy, anyway... well I was looking through my Shads pics and had an idea to compile all these together. So here's a look at the Shadows when they were little! Before everything!
The vast majority of these photos are from the books The Shadows By Themselves from 1961 and The Story Of The Shadows from 1983.
