Gerry Marsden

Love Gerry Marsden’s songs & voice. Thank you for giving me the right spelling of his name.

@@esthergarcia1373 You're Welcome!

She is still alive (May 2023)

And STILL is!

You are welcome Bill 🙂

Danke once again Harald :)

Thank you Sheila !! :)

I love all the groups you mention dalec but I mainly left them out through choice ..so as to not be too obvious. Also there seem to be copyright issues with using The Beatles. I have used a few early Stones songs in other videos though. Thank you for the comments and for watching. :)

@dalecroberts: Personally, I'm glad they're not here. There are so many awesome groups from the '60s many of whom don't get the love they deserve. Plus it's easy to find them. Cool stuff like this is rarer. I propose a vote of thanks to Pete! 👍

A magnificent voice Colin.

His version of Since you've been gone with rainbow is the best. His style was even copied, including the "huh" bit, by Michael Ball on an album of rock and pop songs he recorded. I cheered the first time I heard him do that, and laughed. I could hear Michael having fun singing rock, and not taking himself too seriously.

Some of my favorite records. Happy! Happy! Happy!

And I really appreciate your comments Thomas . Being an ex-serviceman myself all the more so. Take care and thank you. 🙂

@@peteroberts4033 My father joined the Australian army in 1939 (the tank corps) . He was a Sergeant Major. He passed away in 2006. He was a great dad ( he kept me in line) I miss him dearly. You and dad would have had a lot to talk about . Keep the good music coming thanks again, take care God Bless. P S. My wife Julie's dad was in the navy . As I said before we owe so much to our servicemen. Thanks for sharing the music and for your service to country.

@@thomasbain9241 So sorry you lost your dad Thomas . Sadly most people of our age parents have passed away and we all miss and remember them. Your dad contributed far more than I ever did. I was a mere Sapper in The Royal Engineers from 1965-1970. I did serve in Aden from 1966-1967 .. which was considered active service at the time. But still no where near what your dad achieved. You have every right to be proud of him ..as is your wife to be proud of her Dad. We owe them so much. Thank you again.

Without those who served we couldn't come and go as we please. Couldn't work or worship where we choose. Some government would tell us.

Thank you Yves !!

Very interesting observation Joe. We all wanted to look like Elvis in those days. I know I did. 🙂

Probably because by the time the Beatles hit Elvis had already sold out, and the rest of the American charts were full of pop stars called Bobby who not only sung safe music but had the stamp of approval from their parents and the establishment. The music the Beatles and co also bought with them helped change the tide. Fascinating reading the accounts of people such as Merryl Steep, Billy Joel, Sigourney Weaver, Springsteen, etc on how hearing the opening bars of I Wanna Hold Your Hand, or watching the first minutes of the Ed Sullivan appearance, changed their view of the world and what it had to offer overnight.

You are very welcome Janos ..I enjoyed doing it all ..thank you for watching !! :)

Unit Four plus Two ..performing on the construction site of The Barbican Centre !!

@@peteroberts4033 I had to google that, but very cool. I want to say that I love your country even though I've only been there once, you guys could show us yanks how to act with a little class, especially some of us.

@@G8GT364CI We love America too Bob ..the music and the culture . I spent a week in New York in 1969. Will never forget that ..have been to Vegas too..and loved that entirely different experience.

@@peteroberts4033 New York is a good place as long as you don't have to drive good music, clubs etc, although it is now ridiculously expensive. We're a nation of cowboys, mass murders, ignorant politicians etc. England is not perfect I would imagine but it seems that you do your housecleaning a lot faster than we do. I envy your parliament and free healthcare, people here go bankrupt because of medical bills. I'm a retired RN too.

@@G8GT364CI Nowhere is perfect at the moment Bob ..there is so much division here ..but it is a global problem. Feel sorry for the youngsters !!

I am pleased you didn't include Needles and Pins .aa Armand . You Tube blocked it ..and just left Bits and Pieces !! 🥲

@@peteroberts4033 I listed 'Needles and Pins' third, in front of 'Massachusetts'. Great tune but I truly love the Jackie de Shannon version from '63. She isn't British of course

@@johnnypoker46 Sorry Armand . You did mention it ..and it is staring me in the face !! I must learn to take in exactly what I am reading instead of skimming over it and just getting the general idea.

I never knew that Phil ..hopefully no-one will notice. :)

@@peteroberts4033 😊No, no one 🤣

@@Raindropser3 Whoops someone noticed !! :) Thanks for subscribing Sunny.

@@andrewkatsinis4225🤏 🙀 🥵 🙈

I just heard a 1965 rendition of "The Crying Game" by Brenda Lee -- BEAUTIFUL (to say the least)!! Her 1963 version of the Skeeter Davis hit, "The End of the World", is also SUPER--MARVY!!

Yes ..but Elvis isn't British . I have made an Elvis compilation too. 🙂

Elvis was great, but the true King of ROCK 'N' ROLL is Chuck Berry. Just listen to "Johnny B. Goode" and "Sweet Little Sixteen"... they rocked! Both the Beatles and Stones recorded his songs.. and the Rolling Stones litterly stole Chuck Berry's sound; just listen to their early albums.

Unless they watch my videos !! 🙂

@@peteroberts4033 unless their 6 x 3 monitor tells them to do it , they'll never do it on their own....

They weren't turned down, Lennon turned down the terms of the contract.

Me too William ..great memories !!

Good Bob .. RU-vid blocked it and I didn't want to lose the rest of my video ..so I opted for them to edit it out. Did a great job ..didn't they ? 😕

@@peteroberts4033 RU-vid sucks sometimes, but actually it's whoever owns it yes but they hacked it.

I always see them as dual nationality.

Born in the Uk like Olivia Newton John

Didn't they go to school in Burnage a suburb of Manchester?

I prefer to keep an element of surprise with my videos..just a decision. But if you wish I can give you a list on here. 🙂

Thanks Xoxo . You can play my videos on anything that picks up You Tube. It's all free !! I get no money from them..it is just a hobby. :)

Well color me happy!! Thank u for all u do. I will name my first born after u. Lol!

@@holliesanders4220 Wow ..I feel honoured ...I just hope it's not a girl Xoxo !! :)

Captain Sir Thomas Moore, more popularly known as Captain Tom, was a British Army officer and fundraiser. He made international headlines in April 2020 when he raised money for charity in the run-up to his 100th birthday during the COVID-19 pandemic

@@peteroberts4033 ah i see, thank you

You Tube blocked it Bob. I asked for them to trim it out ..rather than redo the whole video. What you see is the result. 🙂

@@peteroberts4033 Too bad but I'd gather that it was an AI bot that did it with no concept of continuity .

@Gab Trucker Very funny Gab ..by the look of your channel you are quite capable of doing it yourself.. Some great music choices there ..many of which appear on some of my other playlists.

@@gabrieltrucker Gladys Knight and the Pips were the 1st artists to record I Heard it Through the Grapevine.

@@peteroberts4033 thank you so much!!

What are you on Perry ? Is it just the music giving you a high ? 😀

You Tube removed the Needle and Pins video..not me. Anyway ..why are you moaning . It is all free and you don't have to watch. Make your own if you don't like my selections.

There is only one Gerry and the Pacemakers track on this particular video ..and You Tube blocked The Searchers as I explained in my notes at the bottom of the video. I rest my case !!

You did a great job Pete....and I love your reply!!.We can't get enough of our 1960s music....with the majority of it tuneful etc...etc...keep up the good work!!
