Geoff - Yeah, I'm sorry...I meant the original Parlophone album catalog. I know that EMI changed the titles and the covers for the re-releases. I never saw the original cover of BUTTERFLY until the ... |

If you google Eric Haydock, you find some interesting stuff. He's keeping himself pretty busy. Does anyone know how his group sounds? |

Magic does an awesome job. A CRAZY STEAL should have done much better than it did when it came out, but I think if you trace the dates, Clarke left just as the album was being released. So Polydor i ... |

I don't know why the press had such a time with the group. True, the Hollies didn't do anything stupid and that's why the US was a doomed market for 'em. By the time MOVING FINGER came out, the post ... |

I don't know...this album did nothing for me. The best part of the album is the notes that Allan and Graham contributed. I liked the concept, but there's a reason why Hollies songs are short and upb ... |

Undoubtedly, the most universally best selling Hollies album in the world is GREATEST HITS, the one that came out on Epic in 1973. It may have not been a real blast when it came out, but for longevit ... |

From what I've heard, Allan and Bobby are occasional "snowbirds" and have vacation property somewhere in Florida close together. Just a rumor tho. I suppose if it's true, someone will tak ... |

Yep, I guess so. Toe the line or be labelled as a 'loon' for making points that nobody wants to address. I guess I'm the grinch who stole Christmas around here. |

I think I've been able to come up with what I don't like about the idea of this New Hollies (and I shall refer to them as THE NEW HOLLIES from here on out). I'll try and not be rude, I promise.

Wow! I checked out the link to Magic Records in France. I have followed their reissues over the last 8 years or so. I will tell anybody and everybody here that this is the Original Hollies catalog ... |

When Allan Clarke exited (forced out, whatever) the Hollies in 1999, I understood. Family comes first and you can't drop the keys of Hollies' tunes to accomodate a failing voice (you musicians, try i ... |

I'd have an easier time with Howarth if he didn't look so much like a young Chris DeBurgh. I'd rather listen to "Air Supply" than STAYING POWER. |

I think the big trouble now is - there is currently a band called the Hollies that is trying to pass themselves off as THE HOLLIES. |
