Maccas lost gems-the best of the rest

[Gary Alsop]

Three of my favourite lost gems are 'Ferry 'cross The Mersey' from about 1988, 'All My Trials' from about 1990, and 'Blue Sway', an instrumental, only recently finished, but first started 20 years ago. 'Ferry 'cross The Mersey' was a duet with Gerry Marsden (and others), and was released on an LP for charity. All three are played regularly in my household!

Did We Meet Somewhere Before?, Best Friend, A Love For You : these songs are virtually never spoken of since they are so rare.

To mr h atom
I think best friend is a good one but still a rather coventional boggietrack maybe not so much of a real song. Still pleasant listening. By the way did he ever release that song?

[mr h atom]

as far as i know, no : i've only heard the live version which is on 'Cold Cuts'...it can also be found on youtube

great bit of 'elvis'-esque rock and roll

I think I found the right place. Lost Gems. How 'bout "Junk", "Beware My Love", and "Magneto, Titanium Man" and "Girlfriend".

[efghijiloveyou]

Junk is beautiful with words and without. I love Beware My Love; a truely under-rated track, that one. However Junk does get bandied about from time to time.
