The Searchers LIVE In London, 01.04.2016@High Quality

[@robertjackson4941]

Saw the very,very last Searchers show at The Stables at Wavendon on Sunday 31 March 2019 Still a brilliant live band with a superb catalogue of tunes both of their own and other artists that jointly made up a very sad but unforgettable night. Thank you the Searchers who have played in the band over the years and to those who played their part over recent years especially the 2 stalwarts John McNally and Frank Allen. A full house on Sunday that included quite a few 'youngsters' who bopped their way through the evening to prove that the Searchers fans aren't all baby boomers. Thank you Searchers for givng me music to grow up to and to also grow old with. Bob Jackson

[@thestrategistbrit]

@@rcpinsa i saw them at the 2nd last day of what was meant to be their last tour, and with excitement and love i saw them again a few weeks ago, truly brilliant as always

[@henriput854]

The searchers , great band and great hits . Thanks for al the good music . Fan Henri put belgium 🇧🇪

[@trevorcampbell9294]

Saw them in Toowoomba (Australia) in 2016, Loved them, although I was 2 when this song was released!

[@dorothyscarth2930]

Saw them last night in concert in Eastbourne. Brilliant! Sad they are retiring

[@jduff59]

These guys look fit and sound fantastic for a band that was 59 years old at this time, and I'm sure their final show was fantastic. The quality of the video isn't great, but good enough to watch all the way through - so a big thanks for posting!

[@antoniosarroca5108]

Thank you Kfir Asael for posting this wonderful video : So beutiful concert I like them since 1966 my favor band congratulation it make me happy to see you all together my hands up !

[@kfirasaelable]

You are more than welcome 😀 Glad you liked it

[@จันทร์พรส์สุธาสินี]

They were very wonderful all the times I love THE SEARCHER and the songs they plays ❤️🎼❤️

[@rodarev]

Wonderful music.

[@tonydibble8495]

They brought a freshness to the rock scene which the Mersey sound initiated

[@ianthomsonnewman4048]

Great group, which played at a saturday night dance when I was at Manchester Uni. It must have been in early 1965.

[@philipowens9797]

Great band👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@kenleesuser1943]

Memories of yesteryear recalling where we were in the early sixties ( and quietly who with) and wondering what if

[@kevinedwards2577]

One of the greatest 60s bands ever ! So sad they are calling it a day in 2019 but time stops for nobody ! I will be there at Whitley bay in 2019 to say goodbye ! Wouldn't it be great if for the last tour if the original line up " or as close as you can could appear " Mike pender & co I mean ! Could join forces & give the fans what they really want ! Just a thought ! Ps my favourate song is every time you walk in the room !

[@allenstokes7448]

I saw them last week on the 60s gold tour, brilliant

[@MrRic2103]

Kevin Edwards just popped into my local to use the cash machine.noticed they are playing on 25th may

[@tonyknaggs9763]

@Mark Ehrlich When we last saw The Searchers on their farewell tour we spoke to Spencer andhe said he was going solo as the voice of The Searchers. Hope he does well. the old Dr Hook voice John lecarie does well enough so hope Spencer does too.

[@sextonblake1505]

Still have a hard time accepting that I won't sing along to "Every time that you......." ever again.

[@roymondszweda2840]

So influential long may they reign.

[@detlefbock2048]

welch schöne Erinnerung an die Golden Sixties, insbesondere an die vielen englischen Beatbands; ich höre sie immer wieder gerne!

[@yellowpepperpot5294]

The bands today that enriched the popular music of the 1960s are shadows of what was. Time moves on.

[@jasonatkins2493]

At least they still have a couple of original members in the band, unlike many that are still touring.

[@tonyknaggs9763]

Only one actually, Frank Allan joined to replace Tony Jackson in 1964.

[@marke6569]

John Mcnally the only original. Frank almost an original with them after Tony Jackson was replaced and was on many recordings.

[@georgescarlett2320]

RIC 12ver, can't beat it!

[@sextonblake1505]

Very good video.

[@kfirasaelable]

Steve Adkins Thank you Steve

[@colinlyne8688]

[@trevorschofield6033]

Bootle band ,original drummer Chris Curtis,real name Chris crummy,yes really,my wife was in his class at school,I myself went to St George of England school in bootle.in my class was Billy Ashton was in my class aka Billy j kraemer.

[@Palandy33]

Why not stick to the original Searchers version and chording. A big thank you to the soundman for this performance.

[@archiefury]

You dont like the line up, you dont like the versions of the songs they sing, and you dont like the chords they are playing. Why dont you just stick to the old records......or could it be that you just like moaning?

[@Palandy33]

No I just things doing properly, sorry if you cannot see what I am getting at.

[@martinfennell3924]

i guess because they didn't want to.

[@lhasadog1]

Spencer James has got a fantastic voice. Listen to The Rose. Better than on Strickly tonight 18th Dec..

[@stewartfenton7660]

Paul, I absolutely agree, the fans want to hear it like they heard it all those years ago. That other bunch, the Seekers, never changed anything, and were fabulous up the the last performance, despite Judith sadly failing just a tiny bit. Don Everly would always want to do songs differently, making it hard work for Phil to follow him (though he somehow did), and though they remained great, it tends to disappoint me to hear the songs keep coming out a bit different. It's OK for jazz, I suppose.

[@petrslivinski7481]

Are these the original members?

[@DavidAndrewsPEC]

Sod the bickering - that Telecaster bass!!!!!!

[@JimmyMarch]

He has a funny way of playing the bass

[@doughardy6931]

Some people have to lower the songs' key because they can't sing it in the original key. It's too bad there has to be 2 Searchers bands,but it is what it is.

[@marke6569]

Always loved the band but without Tony Jackson & Mike Pender never the same. Wished that Tony came back before his death.. Too bad Mike & John had that feud. Mike tried to make amends but John refused. Frank was there for many hits and could be considered an original member since he was on many hit recordings.

[@salanzaldi4551]

To remain a good guitar player you must keep in practice. After not touching my guitar in decades, I can barely pluck a chord when once I was pretty good.

[@Oldez60s]

Whoever is filming evidently doesn’t know who the lead singer is...

[@Oldez60s]

Spencer on the left of the video is the lead singer, of course yes the other two in front are original members but mostly backups except on some songs

[@cartermcafee2073]

My kingdom for the Searchers, not archers, searchers

[@realdiamondshow]

Drummer cannot keep a steady beat..dreadful.

[@Palandy33]

Nothing like the original, when you lose the main singer and guitarist (mike Pender and Tony Jackson) call it a day. Too many electric enhancements with these Searchers.

[@davidstamp8780]

Ha Jackson left the band in 1964 when Frank Allen replaced him so I guess that gives the latter some longevity (ie 10 times as long as Jackson in the band). Pender left in 1985 and Spencer James came in. I think if anything he has a better voice than Pender and the current band is great. 30 odd years going strong in this line up. Each to their own.

[@Palandy33]

As you say, everyone to their own.

[@Palandy33]

Far to nasal when he sings

[@leediefenbach2462]

In like them in 1963...

[@trevorschofield6033]

tony jackson yes good mike pender total crap

[@kevincasson9848]

They need a good drummer, especially on the Buddy Holly songs! I'm sorry but he's way off by a mile! Spoilt otherwise a brilliant night out!!

[@HHH-vi1wn]

Not only the drummer, set and cymbal sound is horrible

[@stewartfenton7660]

I'm sorry, but they sound tired and lacklustre.

[@jkelly1701]

amazing crap

[@89awcock]

hi can you tell me what venue this is please in London as I go to see The Searchers in London and it could have been I knew I have been to and attended

[@kfirasaelable]

It was at The Camberley Theatre, this is not exactly in London It’s in the suburbs of London. Scott Awcock
