Gerry & The Pacemakers are the second most successful group from Liverpool to hit the US pop charts, behind only The Beatles. In the U.S. they were signed by the small New York independent record label Laurie in 1963, with whom they issued four singles during 1963 without success. When The Beatles broke through in January 1964, Laurie's next regular single release of "Don't Let The Sun Catch You Crying" became a big hit and during 1964 Laurie coupled "How Do You Do It?" with "You'll Never Walk Alone" and "I Like It" with "Jambalaya" with some success.
