Infrequently Asked Questions

I own the copyright to something on this site and I want some credit - or I want it removed!

Just email me via the address on my profile (click 'contact me' at the side), and I'll give credit, or remove whatever it is.

I want to send you an email for any other reason at all!

Go ahead! Use the same address on my profile.

Can I share and copy [this publication/poster/photo you have scanned] for myself?

Of course, just don't sell them or claim they're yours. I considered putting a little watermark/credit page on my scans, but it seems really big-headed so I didn't!

What IS this site?

See the first post!

And who are YOU?

I am a young woman from the UK, and as you've probably guessed I'm a bit of a Shadowmaniac...

Why do I love The Shadows so much?! I don't know! Their music just makes me happy.

See this page if you want to know stupid things like what my favourite Shads albums are etc.

I am not associated with anyone in the Shadows fan community - not for any bad reason (I hope!), anyone is welcome to contact me if they want but I don't really have much to say.

Also I want to stay anonymous, so just call me Taffeta Rose (or Taffy for short) - don't worry that's not on my birth certificate!

Where did you find [this Shadows video] that you have put on your YouTube channel?

I don't have some sort of private archive of footage (hah, I wish!), it's just whatever I dredge up from various corners of the Internet through what is sometimes borderline OSINT levels of sleuthing...

Taffy, you say this is a 'Shadows archive', but why have you included something about Jet and Tony, or Marvin Welch and Farrar, or ... etc...?

Well it's really just a catch-all term: I also want to include (ex-)members of the Shadows and their other projects!

...And why have you made a new site on Blogger of all platforms in 2024?!

I already know how to use it, and I can make it look however I want (i.e. really tacky) without having to pay just to change colour schemes, etc! There are downsides but not too many in my opinion. I don't want to create an account on a social media site and post my stuff there.
