Gerry & the Pacemakers

In 1962 Gerry & The Pacemakers were signed by manager Brian Epstein as his second group after the Beatles and made their name with ballads like ‘ Ferry Cross the Mersey’ and ‘Don’t Let the Sun Catch You Crying’ as well as raunchy pop. Though it was a Rogers & Hammerstein son ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone’, which had enthralled Mardsen since he saw the film ‘Carousel’ in his youth, that was their biggest hit. For three decades it remained the anthem of the crowds at Liverpool Football Club, played before kick-off every Saturday, inscribed on the club gates and always the most popular concert request. “Courtesy of http://www.gerryandthepacemakers.co.uk/”
