More Info:
Limited 180gm vinyl LP pressing. The UK's early '60s music scene was dominated by the so called Merseybeat music. One of the most successful bands in this specific genre was the band who became known as Gerry and the Pacemakers. During the years they released a dozen of song classics that still can count on worldwide recognition. What to think about the ever standing 'You'll Never Walk Alone', which can be heard in soccer stadiums around the world. Another one is their first single 'How Do You Do It?', which The Beatles recorded but eventually didn't release. The Best Of album brings all those massive hits together. Just think about their beautiful 'Ferry Cross the Mersey' and 'I Like It', and the full history of the band get's the attention which they deserve. Besides the Merseybeat they also show their harder side in a song like 'Jambalaya'. Gerry and the Pacemakers were one of the nearest competitors during the early years of The Beatles. Frontman Gerry Marsden wrote much of the band's material and he worked together with George Martin to create some of their well-known songs.
