Gerry and The Pacemakers - 'Ferry Cross The Mersey'

Double tracked vocal in parts, slightly different from original

@RevolverAnthology also after the second 'Day', you can hear the rift is on a loop. Dont like this recording

@august251976 I doubt they used loops then? I play this song and it's dead easy to just keep repeating the riff, although I can see why you say it, it's jerky

Thanks for posting this. Love this song, as a kid here in the states I imagined what this ferry would look like and at long last have been able do so. Been to the UK often, but never near the Mersey. A few years back we were invited to a wedding and were going to stay in Manchester. Planning the trip, this song echoed in my mind constantly. Unfortunately, there was a family situation that prevented us from going. Next year, when my youngest is in college, I promised my wife we would go.

Good shit!

OF THE HEART BEAUTIFULL

those were the days good old 60 sss i remember this song i loved it  .

@uselessjoe
No its ferry cross the mersey, not "across", look it up

Yes,that's right. It is spelled skiffle, and please excuse my typo. I certainly stand corrected. But, I would still consider the intro/beat of this tune as a "skiffle type" beat. Even though most of their music would not be considered skiffle,they certainly hail from the birthplace of it.
