It was bands like the Beatles and Gerry & The Pacemakers that first caused me to want to get up and play rock and pop music in front of people. Before then, I’d been studying classical piano, like most young kids who showed any musical ability. After the British Invasion, everything changed.
When Gerry Marsden died this last weekend, Paul McCartney said, ”He and his group were our biggest rivals on the local scene. I’ll always remember him with a smile.”
Last November, I got to sing one of Gerry’s greatest songs with the Tribe Band for the Project Kids-Care Telethon, Nov 28, 2020. Please listen to my tribute to Gerry Marsden, and share it around if you feel like it.
