There's a poster shop selling a photo of the Hollies and there are 2 guys in it that I've never seen before. The only thing that helps define it is that 2 of the Hollies are wearing 'Find Me a Family' t-shirts. So at least that gives an idea of when. The obvious Hollies are there-Hicks,Clarke,Elliott, probably Alan Coates. One of the guys looks a little like Steve Lauri but that would seem to be before his time. The guy on the far left of the photo has a face and a grin that reminds one of Huck Finn. I'm curious. The late 80's and the 90's were a time of turnover and changes for the Hollies and it's difficult keeping track of the personnel.

I reckon the 2 guys might be Ray Stiles and Dennis Haines. I listened to the part of the 2010 BBC radio documentary They Ain't Heavy, They're The Hollies, where Find A Family is mentioned. It was Ray's first studio recording with The Hollies, although he had been with them 3 years. They then mention that Dennis Haines left to be replaced by Ian Parker in 1991.

Thank you both for your replies. I have the 45 for Find Me a family but I don't recall that there was a group photo on it, just a painting and I don't think there were liner notes or that the personnel were listed so your information helps.
