The Liverpool Scene, a band consisting of Adrian Henri, Andy Roberts, Mike Evans, Mike Hart, Percy Jones and Brian Dodson, grew out of a series of poetry readings with music at the Everyman Theatre, Liverpool, and the success of The Incredible New Liverpool Scene, a 1967 CBS LP featuring Henri and Roger McGough reading their work with accompaniment by the guitarist Roberts. The LP in turn was inspired by the success of the poetry anthology The Liverpool Scene featuring the work of Henri, McGough and Brian Patten.

  • The Liverpool Scene, a band consisting of Adrian Henri, Andy Roberts, Mike Evans, Mike Hart, Percy Jones and Brian Dodson, grew out of a series of poetry readings with music at the Everyman Theatre, Liverpool, and the success of The Incredible New Liverpool Scene, a 1967 CBS LP featuring Henri and Roger McGough reading their work with accompaniment by the guitarist Roberts. The LP in turn was inspired by the success of the poetry anthology The Liverpool Scene featuring the work of Henri, McGough and Brian Patten. In the 1960s, poetry began to have popular appeal for a young audience, with some critics claiming that pop songwriters such as The Beatles and Bob Dylan were poets. The Liverpool poets' populist approach, drawing on the poetry and jazz sessions of the American Beats as well as their Merseyside surroundings, found acceptance in a cultural climate where traditional literary values were regarded with suspicion. The Liverpool Scene released four LPs, combining poetry with a range of musical styles and incorporating folk, rock and jazz elements. Unlike their Liverpool contemporaries The Scaffold, they achieved little commercial success, although the band did become popular on the UK university and college circuit.
