Bandstand Live In Australia Cilla Black and the Shadows

Bandstand Live In Australia is on DVD and the artists that are on the DVD are British music legends Cilla Black and the Shadows. The Cilla Black episode on Bandstand is from October 19th 1968 which she performed some of her hits like You're My World, Step Inside Love, It's For You as well as interview with Brian Henderson and the other acts on that episode were Don Spencer, George Golla, and British singer Roger Whittaker and the Shadows episode on Bandstand was from early 1968 which the line up were Hank Marvin, Bruce Welch, John Rostill and Brian Bennett as well as them performing songs including the Rise and Fall of Fingel Blunt, the Day I Met Marie, Last Train to Clarksville as well as Hank and Bruce being interviewed with Brian Henderson and the other acts on that episode were Olivia Newton John, Pat Carroll, Allan Dean, Jesse Davis and Marcie and the Cookies. It is FANTASTIC, BRILLIANT and SUPERB as well as very entertaining and enjoyable and well worth watching and there is an extra feature on the DVD which had a interview with Cilla Black in Australia in 1968. It is great seeing Bandstand on DVD again as there will be more coming out in October and November and let's hope for more Bandstand on DVD in the future if these DVD's that are coming out now are successful which I'm sure they will be successful this year as it was last year so let's keep supporting it. A Big Thank You to Channel 9 and Umbrella Entertainment releasing this iconic show on DVD. This DVD is a must for any Cilla Black and Shadows fans as well as fans who watched Bandstand and I am giving this 5 stars which it's in the shops now so do yourself a favour and BUY IT.
