Gerry and the Pacemakers were an English beat group prominent during the 1960s. In common with the Beatles, they came from Liverpool, were managed by Brian Epstein, and were recorded by George Martin. They are most remembered for being the first act to reach number one in the UK Singles Chart with their first three single releases. This record was not equalled for 20 years, until the mid-1980s success of fellow Liverpool band Frankie Goes to Hollywood. Consequently, they stand as the second most successful pop group originating in Liverpool.
History
Gerry Marsden formed the group in 1959 with his brother Fred, Les Chadwick and Arthur McMahon. They rivalled the Beatles early in their career, playing in the same areas of Hamburg, Germany and Liverpool. McMahon (known as Arthur Mack) was replaced on piano by Les Maguire around 1961. They are known to have rehearsed at Cammell Laird shipping yard at Birkenhead. The group's original name was Gerry Marsden and the Mars Bars, but they were forced to change this, when the Mars Company, producers of the chocolate Mars Bar, complained.
The Pacemakers were little-known outside Cincinnati, Ohio, until 1969. After most of James Brown's band quit over a pay dispute, The Pacemakers were hired in 1970 as replacements. They formed the cornerstone of Brown's new backup band, The J.B.'s.

Las brumas de otra década se disiparon estoicas, y bailan al son de nocturnas melodías antiguas. Los extremos se tocan, como siempre, y como siempre nos dicen ténuemente que el viejo espejismo sigue candente y olvidado, por lo presente. Algunos reunen fuerzas para lanzar deseos al viento. Deseos de tierras misteriosas en el ropero y en la salita de estar.
Tranquilo, camarada extraño. Todo está tranquilo en el frente de nuestras viejas guerras, y otras paces humeantes se acercan suave e insolentemente. Salud y gloria a los corredores de fondo y a los degustadores secretos de canciones escondidas.

Las brumas de otra década se disiparon estoicas, y bailan al son de nocturnas melodías antiguas. Los extremos se tocan, como siempre, y como siempre nos dicen ténuemente que el viejo espejismo sigue candente y olvidado, por lo presente. Algunos reunen fuerzas para lanzar deseos al viento. Deseos de tierras misteriosas en el ropero y en la salita de estar.
Tranquilo, camarada extraño. Todo está tranquilo en el frente de nuestras viejas guerras, y otras paces humeantes se acercan suave e insolentemente. Salud y gloria a los corredores de fondo y a los degustadores secretos de canciones escondidas.
------------------------------------------------------------------
The mists of another decade stoically dissipated, and dance to the sounds of nocturnal ancient melodies. Extremes are touching each other, as usual, and as usual they're faintly telling us that the old mirage keeps on burning, and keeps forgotten for being present. Some gather strengths to cast desires into the winds. Desires of mysterious lands in the wardrobe and in the living room.
Be calm, stange comrade. All is quiet on our old wars front, and some other smokey peaces are smooth and insolently approaching. Greetings and glory to the long race runners and to the secret tasters of hidden songs.

Gerry and the Pacemakers were an English beat group prominent during the 1960s. In common with the Beatles, they came from Liverpool, were managed by Brian Epstein, and were recorded by George Martin. They are most remembered for being the first act to reach number one in the UK Singles Chart with their first three single releases. This record was not equalled for 20 years, until the mid-1980s success of fellow Liverpool band Frankie Goes to Hollywood. Consequently, they stand as the second most successful pop group originating in Liverpool.
History
Gerry Marsden formed the group in 1959 with his brother Fred, Les Chadwick and Arthur McMahon. They rivalled the Beatles early in their career, playing in the same areas of Hamburg, Germany and Liverpool. McMahon (known as Arthur Mack) was replaced on piano by Les Maguire around 1961. They are known to have rehearsed at Cammell Laird shipping yard at Birkenhead. The group's original name was Gerry Marsden and the Mars Bars, but they were forced to change this, when the Mars Company, producers of the chocolate Mars Bar, complained.
I've tried and tried to run and hide To find a life that's new But wherever I go I always know I can't escape from you A jug of wine to numb my mind But what good does it do? The jug runs dry and still I cry I can't escape from you These wasted years are souvenirs Of love I thought was true Your memory is chained to me I can't escape from you There is no end, I can't pretend That dreams will soon come true A slave too long to a heart of stone I can't escape from you
