A MUSICAL duo have overcome the challenges of the pandemic to release a new album. Ernie Lamprell and Julian May, who together make up Dengie duo Light and Shade, have released a 15-track album called Then and Now. It contains a number of well-known songs sung by Julian from I Love to Boogie to Rainy Night in Georgia, all mixed in with some fabulous instrumentals by Ernie, including the classic tune Wonderful Land, which was originally recorded by the Shadows. Ernie and Julian are also part of Rich Clifford and the Young Once, who play classic music from the 1950s to the 1980s, including many Shadows and Cliff Richard hits.
