“Signed by Beatles manager Brian Epstein in 1962, Gerry and The Pacemakers made their name with ballads like ‘How Do You Do It,’ ‘I Like It,’ ‘Ferry Cross the Mersey,’ ‘Don’t Let the Sun Catch You Crying’ and more. Their biggest hit was the song ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone,’ originally from Rodgers & Hammerstein musical ‘Carousel,’ which had enthralled the group’s lead vocalists and co-founder, Gerry Marsden, when he first saw the film in his youth. The Pacemakers’ rendition of that song has been the anthem of the crowds at Liverpool Football Club for three decades; it is played before kick-off every Saturday, is inscribed on the club gates and has remained the Pacemakers’ most popular concert request” (PR Newswire, 11/17/2011).
