Gerry and the Pacemakers' self-titled album is a classic piece of 60s British Invasion music. The album, released in 1963, features several of the band's biggest hits, including "How Do You Do It?" and "I Like It."
The album opens with the upbeat and infectious "A Shot of Rhythm and Blues," setting the tone for the rest of the record. Gerry Marsden's distinctive voice is on full display throughout the album, particularly on the ballads "Ferry Cross the Mersey" and "Don't Let the Sun Catch You Crying."
The album's production is clean and polished, with the band's trademark harmonies shining through on every track. The Pacemakers' musicianship is also on display, with catchy guitar riffs and tight rhythms throughout.
