The Searchers are destined to go down in history as Liverpool's second biggest group. When the town's biggest group is the Beatles, that ain't bad! The Searchers took their name from the same John Wayne movie that inspired Buddy Holly to turn the catch phrase, "That'll Be The Day" into a rock and roll classic. From 1964 through 1966 The Searchers were constantly at the top of the American charts with such classics as Love Potion No. 9, Sugar and Spice, Needles and Pins, Don't Throw Your Love Away and Sweets For My Sweet, just to name a few. This collection has ALL their hits and showcases the singing and the musical talents of a group that helped lead the British invasion on the American charts. It's hit after hit after hit...

A vintage (1964) vacuum tube Ampex MX-35 line mixer was restored especially for this project and was used exclusively in the LP mastering process. Mastered by Steve Hoffman, this re-issue was pressed at RTI on Premium Vinyl Pressing HQ-180!
