Nice to finally have a biography on The HolliesBy James P. MullenNice to finally have a biography on The Hollies. Long overdue! But a little disappointing. To begin with, there are several errors where wrong names or titles appear that could've been prevented with simple proof-reading. And some things, such as Bobby Elliott's illness in 1967 where several drummers filled in for him on the road in the studio, are only briefly touched on and others not mentioned at all. Another weakness is the author's not going into more detail on the music. The booklet that accompanied The Long Road Home box set was far superior and could've been used as a reference work here, if the writer had been so inclined. But on the other hand, there were some very interesting revelations that the book brought to light that I never knew before...such as bassist Eric Haydock continuing as the band's bassist, even after Bernie Calvert had come in as his replacement in May 1966, until he was officially fired in July 1965.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. A Good Introduction to the Hollies but NOT a definitive biography.By Christopher L. DolmetschGood but not as thorough as one would expect in a musical biography today! Many important developments in the earliest history of the Hollies are either omitted or simply glossed over. Also it would have been helpful to have a little more analysis of each album in the progression of the band. The first two albums were very much the product of "what we sing on stage" which was overwhelmingly covers of familiar rb songs. The third LP marked the first true progression for the band into two styles: folk as rock (e.g. "Very Last Day") and strong self-composed songs that transcended simple pop. While hit singles, often composed by others, were the bread-and-butter of the Hollies for more than three years, they stretched in the EP and album fields into ever more complex and distinctive musical formats Banjos, folk, changeable tempos, all became hallmarks of the Hollies. I miss a lot of explanation into the motivation and design in the narrative here. This book is *a good introduction* into the Hollies story but it is by no means *the definitive* story of one of British rock's most remarkable bands.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. I enjoyed this bookBy CustomerI really don't know why I bought this book, the Hollies were not one of my favorite groups in the sixties but I'm glad I did. I enjoyed it and I learned a lot about the Hollies and the recording business in general. It is a good read and very interesting. Oh, I bought their greatest hits album and am enjoying the songs much more now than I did in the 60s and 70s. The Hollies are the English Rock Group known for their pioneering and distinctive three part vocal harmony style. They became one of the leading British groups of the 1960s and achieved US chart success in 1966 with their hit 'Bus Stop'. Graham Nash left the group in 1968 to form the super group Crosby, Stills Nash.

  • Pop Music History: the 1960S “Bri?Sh Invasion”
    Pop Music History: The 1960s “Brish Invasion” Everyone loves the songs of the early 1960s. Do you know how those songs and bands became popular? Here is what happened. During World War II, many men went away to fight. The war ended in 1945. Soon they were back home and working again. They began to get married. They began to have families. All of a sudden, it seemed, many people were having babies. There were a LOT of babies. They call this me in the 40s and 50s the “Baby Boom.” Then in the 1960s, all those babies were growing up. Now they were teenagers. 70 million! It was a modern age. They called it the Jet Age. Kennedy was President. Young people liked new things, and new music. They liked “mod.” Teenagers oen like to be different from their parents, as they grow up. The 1960s teens had their own culture. Some boys grew their hair longer. They loved pop music. Everyone forgot about Elvis when the Beatles appeared on TV on the Ed Sullivan show in the U.S. in 1964. The Beatles became so popular so quickly, the press called their arrival in the U.S. the “Brish Invasion.” Teens loved the blues‐based, guitar‐ led sound of the Beatles and other Brish groups. They bought all their records. They requested the songs on the radio. They went to their concerts. Other performers were popular, too. Dusty Springfield had big hits, including “I Only Want to Be With You” in 1963. The Hollies had lots of hits, including “Bus Stop” in 1966.

This promises to be one hell of a show, another landmark in the making, I can feel it in my gut folks. I have spoken to all artists over these last few weeks at the time of typing, and they are really up for it, I mean really raring to go. As you can see we are returning to the 100 Club after a break of a few years. Unfortunately we have decided to leave the Borderline, as I truly feel the ambience of the refurbished venue is unsuitable for our type of show. I must point out before any cries of disloyalty towards the 100 Club for leaving that venue for the Borderline, it was purely that at the time the veteran Oxford Street establishment was under threat. It was suggested by the management that we move our event to a temporary home whilst the problems were in the process of being sorted out.
