Hi Roy
Thanks a lot for you r postings and your memories of seeing Terry. Yea and Terry did a duo type of thing with James Griffin for quite a few years. It was a sad loss for Terry and everyone at the time.

Thanks for your welcome message Roy, very much appreciated. It was nice to be invited by ...

I have to be honest I have never compared Stereo V Mono. Although I have just bought two Hollies 1960s albums on CD. It has the original album and track listing twice,once in Mono and again in what they call glorious stereo.

Hi Sheena
I am sure I have heard Graham Nash say it was after a Christmas decoration.

I will have to see if I can find the interview he said it in and post it up.

Martin

You are so right there Peter!

I think Terry finest hours with The Hollies were his breath taking high harmony vocal on Air That I Breathe and He Aint Heavy. Also another firm favorite of mine that he sang harmony and co lead vocal is Sorry Suzanne.

Hi All
I was just wandering how may on here know that over the August Bank Holiday Weekend, Terry Sylvester is playing a home coming concert at Liverpool’s Cavern Club. He is on the bill with Joey Mulland of Badfinger.

Is there many members on here that plan to go.

Hi All
Some very interesting points raised above and just to pick up on a few of them.

Peter,yes you are so right about the songs you mention Look Through Any Window and Bus Stop. What is interesting is that both those songs are wrote by Graham Gouldman of 10cc.

Gary, you wanted the lyrics to ...

Hi Brian

Hi All
Well I want to start a new thread or encouraged related threads as regards bands that have played The Cavern Club in its heyday.

In a series of threads coming up you are encouraged to talk about The Hollies ...

Hi Pete
Liverpudlians never really do tend to as a rule go to far from home. Even if they do Liverpool always remains close to their heart.

There is a saying that goes "You can take a scouser out of Liverpool, But you cant take the Liverpool out of a scouser"

As regards The Beatles influence ...

Hi All
In reply to this Topic,"Soldier of Love" is a class song and a lot of the bands who play at The Annual Beatles Convention play that one.

Also Kris and Kent you talk of The Return they are in my view about the finest Beatles Tribute Band I have seen. I met them after a performance in ...

Hi Brian
There are still a lot of Pubs like that around Liverpool where they have the good old Open Microphone session. The ...

Hi Peter/All
That’s a very good question.

The music scene back in those days was mainly dominated by a youth type culture. This was inspired by Lonnie Donegan and his hit record Rock Island Line which was released in 1956.

Around this time also skiffle groups were springing up all over ...
