April 1987 saw the release of Joe Fagin's "The Pride of
Merseyside" on 7 Inch Picture Disc, the B side featured the track
"Don't Care Much Anymore".
The song was a reworked version of a "Liverbird Upon My
Chest" the popular KOP song written by Phil Aspinall in the mid-80's to
the tune of "The Ballad Of The Green Berets" which has grown a new
verse with ever momentous occasion since.
In 1984 Jeremy Beadle lookalike Joe Fagin was also the voice
behind "That's Living Alright" the theme tune to ITV's comedy-drama Auf
Wiedersehen Pet.
As football songs go The Pride of Merseyside was not a bad
effort...
