"A masterpiece." -- The Damned Utd The place where the swinging sixties started- Liverpool, England, birthplace of the Beatles- wasn't so swinging. Amid industrial blight and a bad economy, the port town's shipping industry was going bust and there was widespread unemployment, with no assistance from a government tightening its belt. Even the Beatles moved to London. Into these hard times walked Bill Shankly, a former Scottish coal miner who took over the city's perpetually last-place soccer team. He had a straightforward work ethic and a favorite song- a silly pop song done by a local band, "You'll Never Walk Alone. "Soon he would have entire stadiums singing along, tens of thousands of people all dressed in the team color red. . . as Liverpool began to win. . . And soon, too, there was something else those thousands of people would chant as one: Shank-lee, Shank-lee. . . In Red or Dead From the Hardcover edition.
