just look at the bombed out ruins from the war !
@DucksDeLucks
The Undertakers were one of the colorful bands featured in an early article on the British Invasion published in the US - I think it was in Look Magazine. They were shown riding their red motor scooters. Another I recall is the Mersey Monsters. The Monsters were also in a short film on British bands broadcast back around 1964. The UTs sound good in this clip. Thanks for posting. Now we need the Monsters!
@crochetfun7202
Was so sad to hear about Jackie Lomax. I found this video by accident. Glad I did.
@pollcat36
Passed out a few times in the Iron Door- what a band
@juliewilliams4255
Liverpool lost a great band when they left for New York without Geoff, made their life there. So sad Bugs and Jackie passed away so close to one another. Bugs was also a great artist.
@clarkygt1
Proper 60's Liverpool stuff.👍
@Grahamgusbull
Just heard the sad news on Geoff Nugent. I did many gigs at Kirby Coonservatives during the nineties and many times Geoff would come in for his last pint of the night,(after HIS gig)....leap on stage and grab my guitar,even though he knew it was probably out of tune!...and join me on vocals.(drown me out actually) I had known him from gigs in the late fifties.....lovely guy!
@gus23a
R.I.P. Jackie Lomax.
