Marvin Welch & Farrar

about

Marvin, Welch & Farrar were a 1970s British and Australian popular music group formed by two members of The Shadows. The distinction was that while The Shadows were famous for their instrumental work, Marvin Welch & Farrar were a vocal harmony group. The group comprised Hank Marvin (born October 28, 1941), on vocals and lead guitar, Bruce Welch (born 2nd November 1941) on vocals and rhythm guitar, and John Farrar (born 8th November 1946) on vocals and guitar (both lead and rhythm). Almost all the tracks recorded by the group were written by its members, with occasional contributions from co-writers. The group recorded two albums, Marvin Welch & Farrar, and Second Opinion, before Bruce Welch left, leaving Hank Marvin and John Farrar to record a third album Marvin & Farrar on their own. The group did not enjoy conspicuous chart success and were further troubled by Hank Marvin's distinctive appearance, which, in live performances, led to audiences requesting Shadows numbers User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
