"TONIGHT" a song from the movie West Side Story, was written by Leonard Bernstein. The Shadows version was released in 1964 on their third album 'Dance with The Shadows', which reached number two in the album charts. Here's my rendition. youtu.be/YjdEPbxP8NU

hi ger, just wondering about your settings / tone on this recording ...did you use the neck pickup with the tone rolled off slightly, and what position on the neck did you play? I am currently doing this song and having trouble getting a half decent tone , I have opted for playing across the 12th fret, with the neck pickup selected , and as mentioned earlier the tone wound off a little. I am guessing its a strat you are using but are they charlies EFTP I hear
regards

Ger usually uses Christian's VST Host packages Les.
I have just checked on YouTube and he says he has used it and given the link.

Hi Dave, les, Kaye and Sandra, Thank you all for the nice reactions.
Les: To answer your questions: Yes I did use the neck pickup and started from fret nr. 12. I am using a Peer Dellen strat (custom made) with kinman impersonator pickups. Furthermore I used The VST host package as explained by Sandra. Hope this helps.
All the best, Ger
