The Searchers' immediate competitors included bands such as the Wreckers and the Confederates, both led by Michael Pender (guitar, vocals), and the Martinis, led by Tony Jackson (guitar/vocals). By 1959, McNally and Pender were working together as a duet; later in the year, Jackson joined as the lead vocalist.

Cut by the band with their longest-standing lineup (drummer Billy Adamson replacing Chris Curtis), the material still sings, though the remakes of the early hits lacks the crispness and punch of the originals. And it features their early-'70s bid for chart success, "Desdemona." Track List: 01. Sugar And Spice 02. Don't Throw Your Love Away 03. Farmer John 04. Come On Back To Me 05. When You Walk In The Room 06. Needles And Pins 07. Desdemona 08. Goodbye My Love 09. Love Potion Number Nine 10. Sweets For My Sweet 11. Take Me For What I'm Worth 12. What Have They Done To The Rain? Bonus Tracks: 13. The World Is Waiting For Tomorrow 14. Love Is Everywhere 15. And A Button 16. Sing Singer Sing 17. Vahevala 18. Madman 19. Solitaire 20. Spicks And Specks 21. Bite It Deep 22. Indigo Spring 23. I Really Don't Have The Time 24. Think Of My Life 25.
