Cliff Richard And The Shadows - In The Country

Cliff Richard doesn't exactly ooze rock'n'roll, but he's a fine singer, responsible for scores of hits, some of them quite good. "In The Country" with backing band The Shadows is one of my favourites, a fabulous and dare I say, jolly, summer tune, mysteriously released in wintry December of 1966. And will you look at all the screaming girls in the clip! Cliff owned the crowd, and I guess still does.
