The Hollies - The Clarke, Hicks & Nash Years 1963-68 [6 CD, 2011/FLAC]

 


Allan Clarke and Graham Nash had honed theirs for years before recruiting guitarist Tony Hicks, and when the trio turned their vocal beam on a song, it got Hollied. Their crushing vocal power lifted The Hollies above a myriad other bands plundering the R'n'B annals. The real collector's item is an eight-track live show from May 1968 in London, where they bang faultlessly through their hits.
