Wonderful video. I love Gerry and the Pacemakers. So many great songs. I love 'Don't Let The Sun Catch You Crying' I wish I had his talent. R.I.P. Gerry. You will never walk alone.
I am a Liverpool lady, I was born in 1962 so I grew up with Gerry and the Pacemakers also the Swinging Blue Jeans. I have always been a Liverpool football club fan and I adore You'll Never Walk Alone.
We ( my Family) restored a '64 Chevelle to these oldies. I feel it really focused my Kids on a time passed away and focused on university degrees and what lifes about. We still play the oldies with my Grandkids today and still have the Chevelle for weekend driving.
Another of the British Invasion bands that were right for the U.S. at the time. What a great time it was. I was about 11 years old at the beginning of all that and it was great. I started playing drums about 1964 and still play. Thanks for these great postings.
Way back in another century, Paul McCartney did an interview for Playboy magazine and in it he told of how in the early days of the Beatles, the band they all feared as their greatest competition was Gerry and the Pacemakers. He reasoned that the only real advantage they had was the Pacemakers had one song writer while the Beatle had two full-timers, one part timer and one occasional song writer. It's an interesting and possibly correct point of view of a lot of the 60's British bands who only lasted a year or two in the public's eye and then disappeared..
Well, as long as they're reunited with each other in the stars up above, then we shouldn't be bad one bit that they're no longer with us. RIP Freddy Marsden, Les Chadwick, Gerry Marsden, and Les Maguire, and thank you for the music! 🙏
Alot seem to forget that Gerry yes is the pouplar one out of the 4 members but I get it some think he was a solo singer and that was a back up band but come on
