Greetings from The UK! Thank you for showing us this lovely blast from the past! I do not speak German, but i still enjoyed watching the great styles and sounds of the time! xxxxx
Good God ! I never thought I would lay eyes on Jim Gretty ever again ! "Freight Train, Freight Train, Goin' So Fast ......"
I remember old Mrs. Hessy behind the counter with her bleached Blonde hair piled high and a cigarette permanently dangling from her mouth ! Her catch phrase was "Don't touch the Cymbals Love ! "
Peter Hepworth in the basement selling Organs, lovely lovely bloke.
Bernard Michaelson hiding his Bacon Butties in his desk drawer while he was wooing Frank Hessy's Daughter ! Fantastic place, Fantastic Days. I knew Bob Wooler quite well, lovely bloke too.
Thanks so much for posting.

Dang,my band were filmed in the old cavern by a Dutch company around 1973,what I would give to get a copy.
What was your band called?
@@TheMerseySound1 Hi Mike,my band was called,"9.30 Fly",and were quite active on the live music scene in the early 70's.
Gary Harper hello
@@irenedavo3768 hello Irene.
Grossartiger Bericht !!
MNN...I am wondering. Do you think it looks later than early '60s in the 'social documentary' part of it. Like stock footage of post-war Liverpool is mixed with the George Cassidy 'slice-of-life' bit from almost mid - 60s? later period. The long hair and fashion and social consciousness vibe makes me feel it. . Condescending-but-fascinating filming of the housing situation. So perhaps it is summer of '65 by the time they are making it? Maybe '64? But definitely not late '50s when the Beatles were coming through.
It was filmed in late 1964
great fun had
mindestens 10 mal war ich in Liverpool und habe es nicht geschafft, einmal über den Mersey zu schwimmen - via Fähre
@Ritterle Comedy-Satire aber das widerspricht Gerry & the Pacemakers
Excelente documental sobre el under de Liverpool.
Cilla was hatcheck girl and loved to sing Fever
This was three years after
@@TheMerseySound1 well I wasn't there,!!!!!!!!!!
Música salva vidas, ayer o hoy en todo el mundo, sea escuchándola o tocándola
Anybody know who the group is at 25mins into the video ~ in particular the name of the bass player?
The Mysteries. Bassist Brian Scott.
The Defiance was around the corner for you Rob
@@TheMerseySound1 Thanks Mike, I thought it was "Scotty" and I now remember that he was in the Mysteries. I knew Brian well in the early days. Roy Ellis, drummer in the Defiants/laterly Defiance is trying to get in touch with him. Do you know of his whereabouts? Thanks Rob.
@@robluke6934 Not a clue but I'd like to talk to him aswell. I'll keep you posted if anything about him turns up.
By the way Rob I messaged the Zelda Plum facebook page a while ago wanting to buy a CD of the group's live recordings from 1970 but haven't heard anything. Can you help?
I like the girl's dancing
7:15 Litter bug Beatle wannabe
Super
The German's bombed our Chippy.
Sorry about that. I play there.
@@saxyjones Haaa! With them Focke-Wulfs!
Imagine, that john, Paul, George & Ringo, was walking those street´s, while, that producer company, was filming this documentary.
This was filmed in 1964 when Beatlemania was happening. There's no chance they would have been walking around those streets by then
What year was this? Hair looks too long for early 60s? Mid 60s more like.
1964
After the Beatles left there was just noise.
??? WTF does that mean? Before the Beatles went to Hamburg they were considered to be one of the worse groups in Liverpool. When they came back, we were the worst!
No the scene adapted with the times. In the early 60s the local scene was based on Rock & Roll, Pop and guitar instrumentals, by the time this was filmed R&B was the big trend and guitar instrumentals had fallen wayside
In your opinion. There was lots of Fantastic bands in Liverpool. There always have been.
@@saxyjones Absolutely Brian
I'm sure there was many bands that were very great other than The Beatles...
