Twang!: A Tribute to Hank Marvin & The Shadows is a tribute CD released in 1996 on Pangǽa Records. The collection features mostly guitar players performing songs popularised by The Shadows, which featured their lead guitar player Hank Marvin. The Shadows were largely a British phenomenon, so most of the artists on the collections are British or from Commonwealth countries.

The liner notes were written by Pete Townshend.[1] The album concept was by Miles Copeland.
