The this week is: songs by !

Oh, wait, that's not right. Fortunate, really, I'm not that big a fan of The Shadows. Apologies to Hank Marvin. Songs about shadows it is.

Barbara Stant - Shadow In Your Footsteps
youtube.com/watch?v=-zOqd9JuIT
(Majestic soul epic that segues into proto-disco. Should've been a massive hit. Wasn't.)

Tubeway Army - My Shadow In Vain
youtube.com/watch?v=L1XohGWRQS
(Very interesting early Numan song. Feels like the point at which he stepped over from their punk origins to the electronic sound that brought him fame and fortune.)

The Magnetic Fields - Love In The Shadows
youtube.com/watch?v=9AcThp9nlw
(One of the most chilled and dreamy of all the 69 Love Songs, downbeat even. I love the line 'don't smile - we don't do that here'.)

LaBelle - Moon Shadow
youtube.com/watch?v=Q-emBAcQJH
(LaBelle nowadays are almost exclusively known for Lady Marmalade, but they made some very fine funk back in the early 70s.)

The Shadows - Apache
youtube.com/watch?v=7TwULx_wDi
(Okay, go on then. And this connects back to the hiphop history theme we had on Friday, as The Incredible Bongo Band's cover of Apache had a break which was central to early hiphop, widely used by Kool Herc and Afrika Bambaataa amongst others.)
