Its come to this!
Me fingers ache through trying the barres on Rodders Octopus's Garden. Soooo I'm here for a little light relief.

Just tried the filled out version you put on here in as near an arrangement that I can remember to Gerry Marsden's cover from the Pacemaker's first album. "How Do You Like It". I think its worked, sounded good to me anyway. I'll have to try dueting with the CD next time.

I remember seeing Gerry in an interview say and demonstrate that the way he, The Beatles and other Northern groups played it set it apart from the way Cliff and the Shad's would do it in London (All posh and icky dacky! I think he said. Is that a Merseyside saying?) and thats what set the Liverpool beat scene apart from the run of the mill.

(Oh well more useless info from Dogsbody! Shutup dogsbody!!!)

see ya mate,


Chris

D]Goodbye Joe, me gotta go, me oh my oh
