Listen to Liverpool's first supporters song & a revamped website!

[LFCHistory]

Hello all

 

We on LFCHistory.net just relaunched our website last week with a brand new look and we have more or less re-programmed the whole website from the scratch. So please take a look and give us some feedback :-)

 

Also we came across this wonderful song in a 1907 edition of Liverpool Echo. "Hurrah for the Reds" was composed by W Seddon on 31st August 1907. Paul Wilkes is a singer/songwriter from Liverpool who so graciously agreed to record for us the first known supporters song for Liverpool.

You can find the song and the songsheet for the song right here.

Listen to Liverpool's first supporters song - LFCHistory.net

You can see the melody here. The rest was a bit of improvising.

It would be great to hear that getting belted out on the Kop, 100 years after it was made.
