“Embarking on one’s memoirs might seem on the surface a terribly pretentious and self-indulgent thing to do. After all, I’m not a B-list celebrity, a politician or a minor sports star. I haven’t trekked to the South Pole, or invented a device to stop cakes tasting scrumptious, or put men on the moon. I’ve lived what could typically be described as an ordinary life. And yet within that ordinary life, there lurks a story. My story.” Angela Norris’ memoir, Dancing to the Beat of the Tide, tells the story of one girl’s growing up in a small sleepy seaside town in the sixties and seventies, against a vibrant background of music, fashion and the emerging disco era. As a child growing up in the Knott End and later nearby Pilling, on Lancashire’s breezy coast, Angela enjoyed an idyllic childhood, playing on the beach, riding ponies and going out for tea. As disco fever swept the country in the early seventies, she and her friends thought they were pop fashion princesses in their hot pants, ready to dance to the music of T.Rex. Angela then goes on to explore life at secondary school and reflects back on reading Jackie magazine, dispensing its wisdom like a big sister. Not to mention listening to Rod Stewart after school, as he grinned from his poster on the bedroom wall. Whilst Angela remembers her childhood, she also introduces readers to a shy blond-haired boy who becomes pivotal to Angela’s story... Dancing to the Beat of the Tide will appeal to fans of memoirs and also those who have a local interest in Lancashire. Angela’s work will also be enjoyed by those who grew up in the sixties and seventies and would like to look back on the society at the time.

302 pages, 741 black & white illustrations, 7.4 x 9.7 inches 18.8 x 24.6 cm. An anthology of some of the 'other' groups that were part of the 'Merseybeat' era. However, it is not possible to consider this book without reference to Manfred's previous publication, 'Beat Waves 'Cross the Mersey' (ISBN 9781588502018). While this book chronicles the stories of an additional 66 Merseyside groups, plus 108 line-ups, the combination of both books accounts for more than 750 'Merseybeat' groups that Manfred has researched and documented. As such, this publication should be considered to be a companion volume to 'Beat Waves 'Cross the Mersey'. While most people are familiar with the 'Beatles', there is a universal misconception that they invented 'Merseybeat'. However, nothing could be further from the truth as 'Merseybeat' was 'under construction' long before the 'Beatles' exploded onto the scene. While not in any way attempting to detract from their ability, it is important that anyone interested in that era gives consideration to the other groups that were the backbone of this phenomenon. 'Merseybeat' was a product created by the many hundreds of Liverpool groups that played there. So, here are the complete stories of another 66 'Merseybeat' groups, the names of some of them may be unfamiliar to those that were not part of the era. Regardless, it is a fascinating insight into one of the greatest musical revolutions of the 20th century.

Originally published with numerous color images (ISBN 9781588501615) this documentary was well received as representative of a true-to-life snapshot of one of the many 'other' Merseybeat groups of the sixties. A number of requests for a less expensive version ultimately resulted in the publication of this black and white edition. While the Beatles are by far the most famous Liverpool group of the era, they did not create the 'Mersey Sound', it created them. Unfortunately, it's sad that a great era of musical history will only be documented for future generations by the multitude of books that have been written about them. Liverpool in the 60's was a wondrous place, it was alive with music and the sheer number of local musicians and the depth of the talent pool was mind numbing. Depending on your method of research, you will find that there were between 750 to 950 Liverpool based groups performing at any one time during the early to mid 1960's. So here's a story of one of the not-so-famous groups that's part of that total. While their story will always be overshadowed by those that made the 'big time, ' it is an honest and down to earth tale and a fairly typical representation of the many hundreds of other groups that created the 'Mersey Sound' and the real Merseybeat era.
