    Gerry &amp; The Pacemakers - How Do You Like It? (1963) + Ferry Cross The Mersey (1965) [2002]<br /> <br /> [img]http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41RZ14W0BRL._SL500_AA240_.jpg[/img]<br /> <br /> Includes:<br /> Files by track, ripped at FLAC 8 using Easy CD-DA Extractor ([url]www.poikosoft.com[/url])<br /> Tracks have full tags (including embedded thumbnail).<br /> All artwork in jpgs at 300 d.p.i. Rotated and cropped losslessly using jpegcrop. (Includes 8 page booklet.)<br /> AMG Bio.txt<br /> AMG Review.txt<br /> Notes.txt (which is simply these notes included in the torrent)<br /> <br /> Bio Excerpt from All Music:<br /> <br /> As unfathomable as it seems from the distance of over 30 years, for a few months, Gerry &amp; the Pacemakers were the Beatles' nearest competitors in Britain. Managed (like the Beatles) by Brian Epstein, Gerry Marsden and his band burst out of the gate with three consecutive number one U.K. hits in 1963, &quot;How Do You Do It,&quot; &quot;I Like It,&quot; and &quot;You'll Never Walk Alone.&quot; If the Beatles defined Merseybeat at its best in early 1963, Gerry &amp; the Pacemakers defined the form at its most innocuous, performing bouncy, catchy, and utterly lightweight tunes driven by rhythm guitar and Marsden's chipper vocals. Compared to the Beatles and other British Invasion heavies, they sound quaint indeed. That's not to say the group were trivial; their hits were certainly likable and energetic and are fondly remembered today, even if the musicians lacked the acumen (or earthy image) to develop their style from its relentlessly upbeat and poppy base. ....<br /> <br /> To read the entire bio: [url]http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&amp;sql=11:wiftxqe5ldke~T1[/url]<br /> <br /> All Music Album Review:<br /> <br /> The quartet's two U.K. albums compiled on one CD is an attractive package, and the perfect complement to Gerry &amp; the Pacemakers at Abbey Road, filling in the album tracks that weren't included on that collection with only about six tracks overlapping between the two CDs. As it happens, the very best tracks off of the group's first album (including &quot;Summertime&quot; and &quot;Slow Down&quot;) are on the &quot;Abbey Road&quot; CD, and none of the other album cuts, with the exception of &quot;Where Have You Been All My Life,&quot; are all that compelling. &quot;You Can't Fool Me&quot; and &quot;Don't You Ever&quot; are generic Merseybeat numbers with little to distinguish them from the lesser work of the Searchers from the same era; but a lot of it is also enjoyable and fascinating: The group's British beat stylings of Hank Williams' &quot;Jambalaya,&quot; &quot;The Wrong YoYo&quot; (aka &quot;The Right String Baby, But the Wrong Yo-Yo&quot;), Chuck Berry's &quot;Maybellene&quot; (done with what sounds almost like an &quot;Oh Susanna&quot; opening) are all better than decent, Gerry Marsden and producer George Martin getting the brashness of the guitar sound on the latter just about right by British standards (and also anticipating the duet between Marsden and Berry in The T.A.M.I. Show movie). The Ferry Cross the Mersey album actually works better in some ways in this setting, made up of mostly solid Liverpool-style rockers by the band (long after the Beatles had begun evolving into a more sophisticated style), presenting Marsden and company as a hard rock outfit alongside the likes of the Fourmost and Cilla Black. Among the surprises, Gerry &amp; the Pacemakers briefly tread onto Dion &amp; the Belmonts territory with the early '60s doo wop style &quot;This Thing Called Love,&quot; and even George Martin's &quot;All Quiet on the Mersey Front&quot; sort of works, as a faux Shadows-style instrumental, complete with Hank Marvin-style lead guitar. Both albums' contents are presented in original mono in state-of-the-art digital transfers, which brings out the raw power of the group's playing on the hardest sides and the elegance of their approach on the ballads.<br /> <br /> Taken from: [url]http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&amp;sql=10:3jfqxqq0ldte[/url]<br /> <br /> The two albums also have their own reviews:<br /> How Do You Like It?: [url]http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&amp;sql=10:hzfqxqu5ldfe[/url]<br /> Ferry Cross the Mersey: [url]http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&amp;sql=10:gpfyxqlkldse[/url]<br /> <br /> Reviews and for sale here: [url]http://www.amazon.com/How-Like-Ferry-Cross-Mersey/dp/B000063986[/url]<br /> <br /> Track List:<br /> <br /> 01.
