Guitar used: Fender Stratocaster.
"The Rise and Fall of Flingel Bunt" is an instrumental released in 1964 by British group the Shadows. It peaked at number 5 in the UK Singles Chart.
It was written by all members of the Shadows. Flingel Bunt is an imaginary character invented by the actor Richard O'Sullivan, a friend of the Shadows. The full title was given to the tune after the group had been to see the film The Rise and Fall of Legs Diamond.
Reviewed in Record Mirror, it was described as being "completely different from all the Shads' previous ones". "Good beat and it has plenty of blues' feeling, plus an air of earthiness". For Disc, Don Nicholl wrote that "the actual instrumental itself is a steady, fairly dramatic production with thudding drumwork persisting behind the guitars".
