| I never realised he wrote it. I always assumed it was a cover.  _________________ |

| It is over. I felt that was a very pleasant and catchy album, clearly owing much to the Beatles, Shadows and Holly. Lightweight but appealing. Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it.  _________________ |

I think that there's a dramatic revelation to be drawn from this... Gerry Marsden was Buddy Holly?
More shocking than that. Buddy Holly invented The Beatles. It's true. Admit it.

| I don't think I've seen the film this is the soundtrack too.
I get the impression that in the time between recording these songs and the soundtrack came out it would have aged terribly.

| 3: Think About Love
More Merseybeat. I think I know what's missing, vocal harmony.
