| Up to number 127 on Amazon. Looks unlikely to chart, with sales of around 1000 copies maximum. |

| Sorry, just checked and Ray Davies' album is on Radio 2's 'C' list. |

Not looking too promising then for The Hollies, but they don't seem to have been reviewed in the major music magazines yet, which can't help (unless they give bad reviews).

It will be interesting to see how The Hollies do in comparison with another of the '60s giants'.

| To be able to download one track a whole week before you can download the rest of the album. Wow. It's not a single, its a download track, which I suspect will be downloaded by very few people. Maybe ... |

| Seems it was all a hoax. If you can't hold the single, it does not exist. I do not call a downloadable track a single. Also as it is not eligible for the chart, even the official chart company agree t ... |

I do not do downloads, so that is one sale that they have lost. I suspect I am not the only one.
Perhaps a physical single with the second track could be available to buy at the tour venues later t ... |

Has anyone managed to buy the new single yet? I don't fancy a 40 mile round trip to one of the few places that should stock it when I've finished after a hard day at work.
