R.I.P Ron Woodbridge, the original lead vocalist of the British music group The Searchers, passed June 19, 2025.
Formed in Liverpool in 1959, and part of the Merseybeat scene, The Searchers flourished during the British
Invasion of the 1960s, with hits including "Sweets for My Sweet", "Love Potion No. 9", "Sugar and Spice",
"Needles and Pins", "Don't Throw Your Love Away", "When You Walk in the Room", "What Have They Done to the
Rain" and "Goodbye My Love." With the Swinging Blue Jeans, the Searchers tied for being the second group from
Liverpool, after the Beatles, to have a hit in the US, when their "Needles and Pins" and the Swinging Blue Jeans'
"Hippy Hippy Shake" both reached the Hot 100 on 7 March 1964." Needles and Pins" is a rock song credited to
American writers Jack Nitzsche and Sonny Bono. Jackie DeShannon recorded it in 1963 and other versions followed.
One of the most successful ones was by The Searchers, whose version reached No. 1 on the UK singles chart in 1964.
