Round and Round

“Round and Round” was originally a Shadows’ instrumental featured in the 1963 musical movie “Summer Holiday” starring singer Cliff Richard (who, of course, used the Shadows as his backing band).

The rather light plot concerns Don (Cliff Richard) and his friends who are bus mechanics for London Transport. Don manages to persuade London Transport to lend him and his friends a double-decker bus, which they convert into a holiday caravan, and then drive across continental Europe. Mainly this provides numerous backdrops for musical numbers — including a performance of “Round and Round” set in a club.

My rendition is pretty much a cover.
