There was a clip posted in a Facebook group that I thought some people here might be interested in. The BBC did a special called "The Shadows at Sixty" where they got some of the original members together to talk. The clip is specifically around Apache:

Looks like the whole program might be at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdU5BsKdGCc (~60 minutes)

Thanks for sharing this! I so love the role the rhythm guitar plays in this classic.

Sorry to go slightly off topic, but this is a nice view (for this Yank) into Brit culture and The Shadows’ place in it. Cockney rhyming slang referencing Hank in an advert.
