Free Music Review: Almost what it could be
Hit: 3 Stars
Gerry and the Pacemakers were one of those English bands which cashed in on the English Invasion of the mid sixties pop music culture. They had a few very good songs, maybe one great song, and they fared well in the U.S. In England, however, they were nearly rivals to the Beatles in 1962-63, but in the U.S. they were really just an 'also ran.' This Definitive Collection is a testament to that. Most of these songs are extremely bland, lack creativity, and illustrative of how schmaltzy they truly were. "I Like It" was a very, very good song, and "Ferry Across the Mersy" is a nice ballad, but much of their later material lacks substance and spontaneity. It is easy to see why they faded quickly. Gerry and the Pacemakers simply did not have the creative writing talents of Lennon/McCartney, Ray Davies, Jagger/Richards, or Donovan; nor did they have the musical muscle of the Beatles, Rolling Stones, Kinks, or particularly the Animals. Nonetheless, no British 60's music collection would be complete without something from Gerry and the Pacemakers. They were fun, but little else.
