The Searchers - The Ultimate Collection

Limited edition red vinyl

Few beat groups of the mid-1960s could match the impact of Liverpool's The Searchers, whose first four singles on the Pye label included three number ones — "Sweets For My Sweet," "Needles And Pins" and "Don't Throw Your Love Away" — and "Sugar And Spice," a No. 2 hit which is fondly remembered today.

The band's upbeat, folk-influenced guitar pop was hugely successful and their choice of songs inspired, often sourced from then-obscure imported American singles. After vocalist Tony Jackson was replaced by Mike Pender the hits continued, with "When You Walk In The Room" easily identifiable as a direct influence on The Byrds and others that followed. This new collection gathers 60 Searchers tracks across limited edition red vinyl — all 12 Top 40 hit singles are included, along with key album tracks and B-sides. The Ultimate Collection is a must for current and future Searchers fans.
