Don't Let The Sun Catch You Crying.


Sad news. My all time favourite from the 60s. His discography, both with the Pacemakers and solo, has been covered in detail on this forum and is a fitting legacy to the man.


You'll Never Walk Alone.

Very sad news.

"Gerry And The Pacemakers Greatest Hits" was one of the very first albums I ever bought... that was 1967 and I was just 15. I absolutely loved his voice and all band's music then and I still do today. I was lucky enough to see them live once in the late 70's. The hits had dried up by then but the talent certainly had not.

Thanks for the fond memories Gerry.

Saw him a few times - always gave an 'all the hits" performance. Had some medical issues over the last few years - had stopped touring.
