916 The Liverpool Raiders “Big Story” 1966
Lead singer Peter Lewis “was a key figure in the development of British Christian music.” His high school band Union City once beat the Quarrymen—who became the Beatles—in a competition. Union City changed its name to the Liverpool Raiders, and influenced by a Franciscan friar, Brother Ronald, Lewis became “involved in getting rock and roll into the Church” (www.crossrhythms.co.uk).
