LIVERPOOL ROCK & ROLL SOCIETY – Rock & Roll Heart
To draw attention to our marvellous Heart & Chest Hospital, who save thousands of locals every year (including many ageing Rockers) we put together an album of 20 songs with titles containing the word ‘Heart’. Using a wide range of Merseyside’s best, this is a fun album of celebration, raising funds for hospital equipment.

MAL JEFFERSON – The Remo Ride Again – Complete
Colin Manley and the Remo Four inspired all the great Merseybeat groups in the early 1960s - particularly The Beatles. He specialised in the most difficult guitar instrumentals, played on his beloved Stratocaster.
Sadly he departed in 1999, leaving few recordings of his work. Here, his friend MAL JEFFERSON, with The Black Knights, reproduces 22 of his best in the exact style of the original group.
HOOTS MON!/ APACHE/ YOU’RE JUST IN LOVE/ GUITAR BOOGIE SHUFFLE/ REBEL ROUSER/ THIRD MAN/ FORTY MILES OF BAD ROAD/ NIVRAM/ SHAZAM!/ THE GIRL FROM IPANEMA/ QUITE A PARTY/ JAMES BOND THEME/ TRAMBONE/ GHOST RIDERS IN THE SKY/ PETITE FLEUR/ FRIED ONIONS/ SLEEPWALK/ EL CUMBANCHERO/ RED RIVER ROCK/ TZENA TZENA TZENA/ MAN OF MYSTERY/ DESAFINADO.
Here's thanks to Colin, Don, Keith and Harry for pushing the boundaries of what a young, four-piece guitar combo could do. If we had not seen you play these tracks live, we would never have believed it.
This is a best-selling album at local Liverpool outlets, including The Beatles Story museum - also on iTunes.
