RIP: Gerry Marsden

Sad to see that Gerry Marsden of Gerry and the Pacemakers has died - Gerry Marsden, English Singer-Songwriter, Dead at 78

The Pacemakers were a band from the same time as the Beatles, same manager, and from the same place: Liverpool.

Gerry was a mate from our early days in Liverpool. He and his group were our biggest rivals on the local scene. His unforgettable performances of You’ll Never Walk Alone and Ferry Cross the Mersey remain in many people’s hearts as reminders of a joyful time in British music... pic.twitter.com/t1COAIwZVM
