Echoes Of Merseyside | Liverpool Words and Music | Side One

Liner Notes: "This record is for all Merseyside. It is a song made of words and sounds and people. A song fashioned from the hammered plates of great ships. It is the richness of skills, the warmth of humour. Voices of great stars past and present. The roar of worship for the god Soccer. Tongues that combine to produce the almost indefinable quality of life and living that is Merseyside. This record can only be part of the Merseyside story. But I feel it had to be made. Wherever you are, in a corner of the 'Pool or ten thousand miles away, perhaps you will listen and you will see the Liver Bird looking proudly to the river."

Stuart Gillespie (comedian) says “You’ll hear me in the Showbiz section. My mother said “ I HEARD you were on television telling jokes about your mother”. No mention that the show was for HM Queen Elizabeth II.
