Yes, this is really cool. It´s the first time I´ve heard and listened to Loverbirdes and for me they are totally unknown.I can not find any history about them. I can not find any history about them. Maybe it´s because they were women who played rock 'n roll (pop). It would be interesting to know how their career looked like and what they are doing today. There were al lot of fantastic bands during this period. Listen f.e. to THE ZETTLERS and the tunes "Skinnie Minnie" and "Beautiful Delilah".
so freaking cool!! right at the beginning, the guitarist to the left almost cracks up laughing, and is obvious throughout how much fun they're having with the song. this is at some german TV studio right?
@pkappel006 Well, the "real" Liverbirds are the statues on the Liver Building in Liverpool, so.......... You can see them from a distance if you "ferry cross the Mersey". But like so many Merseybeat groups these girls went to Hamburg and were so successful there they decide to make it their home. First saw them on TV in 1966, Saturday afternoon, Beatclub, Uschi Nerke, ahhhhhhhhhhhh........................
First called The Debutones, the group was formed in the early months of 1962. Birch and McGlory replaced founder members Irene Green (vocals) and Sheila McGlory when they departed to Tiffany's Dimensions and The Demoiselles respectively.
The Liver Birds moved to Hamburg in 1963 where they became one of the most popular and successful groups on the Star-Club circuit. In Germany, they recorded two albums which sold well and they reached the German top five with their single, "Diddley Daddy".
Why have this group been airbrushed out of the pages of pop history? Does anyone know what happened to these girls? Are they still alive? Theirs is a story that has to be told...
@PAULLONDEN More like the camera man stood behind the lead guitarist (the long haired brunette). It's not like that was some difficult solo that they would need a stunt double for!

@12347771 You're thinking of Bread and Butter by the Newbeats. This is a cover of a song by the Vibrations.

Never heard of them and I am 57! I'm also a pretty good guitarist who cut his teeth on the British invasion.

I'd never heard of them either, and they're great! Maybe it's because they weren't skanky looking enough?
