Hollies

Bbc Sessions 1963-1964-1965

This LP features sixteen tracks from the Hollies' earliest extant BBC sessions never previously released, including a newly discovered date from 1963 featuring the group's original drummer Don Rathbone. But the opening of 1964's 'Something's Got A Hold On Me' shows how much Bobby Elliot's dynamic drumming improved the group's sound. The recordings are almost entirely live with Graham Nash and Allan Clarke perfecting their Everly Brothers-style harmonies, while virtuoso guitarist Tony Hicks plays rhythm and lead at the same time. From mid '65, the BBC had brought in more advanced recording equipment, so you can hear extra vocal overdubs and reverberation on songs such as 'Stay' and 'I'm Alive.' Sound quality is exceptional and thanks to AI, we have managed to erase all those annoying DJ talkovers at the start and end of each track. The album includes a stereo version of 'Yes I Will.'
