I decided to re-do this song as I have a better setup now than when I did my last version so wanted to improve it.

"Saturday Night at the Movies" is a song written by Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil and performed by American vocal group the Drifters with Johnny Moore as vocalist. The song was arranged and conducted by Teacho Wiltshire and produced by Bert Berns.

The song was released as a 1964 single, peaking at number 18 on the US Billboard Hot 100. In the United Kingdom, the song peaked at number 35. The song charted again in the UK in March 1972 when reissued as a double A-side with "At the Club", peaking at number three on the UK Singles Chart.

I learnt this song in lockdown by watching Dave Monk's excellent cover -    • Saturday night at the movies - The Dr...  

I love playing this song as I enjoy how the melody moves up the next as the song progresses. Plus it was one of my late grandma's favourites, so I've always loved this song.

I created the backing track myself using MIDI instruments in GarageBand and used a Vox AC30 plug-in for a Hank Marvin sound.

Equipment used:
Fender Player Stratocaster (upgraded - 57/62 pickups, 50s Classic Series neck, Kluson deluxe tuners)
Boss Katana 50 Mk II
D'Addario strings
Dava Control picks
Presonus HD7 open back headphones
Presonus HD9 closed back headphones
Snark tuners
