Sad to hear Gerry Marsden ( Gerry and the Pacemakers ) has passed away. Another one from my teenage years in England that inspired me. I was fortunate enough to see him in concert in Tweed Heads N.S.W Australia 2013, he put on a great show. R.I.P

Ditto JohnGC.

When I read of Gerry's passing on the 3rd, not in any morose sense it rammed home memento mori.

Thanks for the memories Gerry.

Introduced in this TV clip by another industry legend (RIP Brian), classic Gerry with his Rick.

For anyone who lived through his heyday on the airwaves, Gerry & The Pacemakers were signature Merseyside. Unforgettable. Popular. Feelgood. So many hits at their peak. Never saw him perform live though.

[br]I saw Petula Clark live on her last tour of AU back in 2019. She was 87 then. What a show! What a gal!
