Why did I pick out these tracks? For a few years I've been missing hearing rock n roll live, so all these are twangy, loud and mostly obviously Searchers tracks.
Tracks 1 to 4 are recordings from a club in Hamburg. Lively and raw.
Track 5 I came across on Youtube a few weeks ago, I’d never heard it before, loved it.
Track 6 made me regret not going to a Searchers concert until recently.
Track 7 can never leave out Buddy Holly track.
Tracks 8, 9, 10 and 11 I just love them.
Track 12 My absolute favourite Searchers single.
Track 13 Makes me smile. I’ve heard so often recently ‘I can’t sing a song unless I connect with it’. Although I understand the emotion of that statement, I say ‘Sing a song because it is a good song’. My smile is remembering John McNally singing the song, he really cannot connect with the words of the song being married over 50 years. I also smile as I should be really cross about the subject of the song, but can’t because it is a rockin song.
Track 14 One of my all-time favourite songs, this version is excellent.

Thanks to all the information I have borrowed, credits have been given where known. If I have missed any let me know and I will add.

I have an extra track which I love, couldn't be included in this compilation as it is more gentle.
