Graham Nash is one of the most ingenious harmonists in music history. We don't throw away these guys just because they're past their prime - instead we marvel at the fact that they can still do it at all, and we graciously take what we can get. Grow up, you negative thinkers - they gave us all they had to give and still have to make a living.
As a young kid I was sitting at the counter of the Wimpey Bar in Hinckley Leicestershire when in walked the Hollies together with Shane Fenton and the Fentones. I was sat between Graham Nash and Alan Clarke and witnessed Bobby Elliott leaving the Fentones and joining the Hollies. Graham started to talk to me and that resulted in me being invited to go back stage later that night when they appeared at the Georges Ballroom. One of the best memories of my youth. I have been a fan ever since, and to see those two sharing a stage after all these years was great. how many of todays so called stars will still be performing when they are in their 70's. Very few is probably the answer.
It's on a smartphone that picks up the sound bouncing around. I've never met a bunch of a sarcastic generation ever. The Millennials are the worst on social media. Hate them. No respect. Rmbr little ones what goes around comes around. Big time.
@@seltaeb3302 millennials are the worst generation that I have ever encountered, they criticize, and bitch and moan about everything and anything, lazy useless group of people. They will be known as the generation that destroyed America.
Allan Clarke was one of the finest vocalists of that era. “The Air That I Breathe” and “He Ain’t Heavy” by the Hollies showcases one of the best voices in pop music history. Good on you, Clarkey for getting up there and doing it. You can be very proud of your vocal achievements over a fabulous career. What a voice.
I loved Allan Clark's voice and I give him great credit for even singing at his age! Someday, we will all be aging, and all I can say ID, I only hope and pray that I can sing as good as he does now at his age! Great talent and I loved his 1993 video where he talked about his new album being released. Thank you Allan for all the great music and still some of my favorites! God bless you always!
In an interview he just did in Sept. 2020, the main reason he left was because his wife Jenni got cancer for the 2nd time and he wanted to spend as much time with her and the family as he could. As it turned out, she is still alive and happy but he also felt his range had changed and he wasn't able to reach the high notes as he'd done in the past. SO he thought for those reasons, it would be best to retire. I know how frustrating it is for me to sing and be shaking and unable to reach the high notes I used to reach. Ah, time changes us all, including grey hair and wrinkles. But I sure miss them even now. I'm glad a I was able to get a video recording on The British Invasion of all thier songs! A treasure I have.
Loved the Hollies as a small boy in the 60's still think Alan Clark was one of Britain's best lead singers, a great guy, and a brilliant band , this was a pleasure seeing too old pals back together again
I think that it's a great sentimental journey back to a time when life was so so much more simple and music was MUCH better than the crap we have now. Thanks Alan, Graham, Tony, Bobby, Terry and Bernie for helping me enjoy and incredible 60's & 70's, you were one of the best, if not the best, certainly there is no one to touch "The Hollies" for harmony.
sabian53 association band did harmony well as it were I think what they called the six part harmony, but they just dont put out that kind of music anymore, has a total differant vibe today, though I still like some of the artists, the happy song is catchy, and that new one called this is my fight song by rachel platten or kelly clarkson.
The tightest harmonies.. right up until Crosby Stills and Nash melded their voices together and the ANGELS became jealous... Not before, not since that time have three voices joined as one sound like those did.
I dont watch vids like this expecting the singers to sound like they did 50 or more years ago. Its just touching to see them singing together again and recreating a great classic.
I've seen video of this concert where the audio is much better. They may not sound exactly like they did 50 years ago but they sounded much better than this.
Sallie Mullinger It’s funny how people age but they expect their hero’s to be just like they were 50 years ago. I wonder if Joe Namath can still play in the NFL
@@sharksport01 Some would call the bands they used to love, and maybe had posters and records of, their a hero or whatever you called your favourite artists or athletes
Every time these artists perform together could be the last. So every performance is potential history in the making. You never know when your time is up. Make each day count.
For those of you who say they're too old, or too out of tune--simply delete the video from your youtube act, and let the rest of us enjoy a sweet moment in time.
nonsense, I watch Tony Hicks and Bobby Elliot who were the best musicians in the group. Clark has a wonderful voice but Nash had more charisma when he was in the Hollies and did most of the talking between songs.
@@rrdream2400 You almost never hear anyone bring up Tony Hicks when the topic of "best" guitarists comes up but how many were actually better? This guy could flat out play. Great instinctive licks. Clear and concise. Innovative. I love watching him on guitar. Bobby Elliot too. Also undervalued as a drummer. The Hollies were a conglomerate that fed off each other. Yes, Allan Clarke was the front man but the band wouldn't have been the same without ALL of them equally pitching in.
My dad is a fan of the Hollies and about the same age as Allan Clarke, consequently I grew up as a fan. took my dad to see Hollies play at the Lowry last year, sadly Alan had already retired, but the memory will live on. Was such a special night ❤
I remember Graham Nash playing for a band called Ricki Shaw and the Dolphins! They were billed as from Burnley! The last time I saw them at Ingol Mission in Preston were they were on about every Month! That night they were going to Grimsby on the same bill as Joe Brown! Allan Clarke wasn’t the vocals then, it was Ricky Shaw! That would have been #1963!
@@davecroft8220 Nash never performed with the Dolphins. The line-up was Tony Hicks & Bobby Elliott and Bernie Culvert. The Hollies line-up at the time was: Clarke, Nash, Vic Steele (replaced by Hicks prior to their 1st hit), Eric Haydock (replaced by Culvert 1966), Don Rathbone (replaced by Elliott on the single 'Stay').
I was talking to Graham in 1984, suggested he and Allen should get together again for one appearance,song,or album he said that was a good idea. last I heard till now glad it happened great group Allen was soooo good
Both of those guys (especially Graham Nash) look REALLY happy to be "re-living" a great time for them 45 years ago. That's fun to watch in this video. If we're old enough to remember this great song, wouldn't we all like to do something like this again? I was in my first year of college at the time.
It would be cool to see Allan, Graham, Tony, Bobby and Bernie (if he can be coaxed out of retirement) get together and play a set with the Butterfly album accompanied with an orchestra.
+covonthebox I met Allan in Person after A CSN gig in Manchester last September. Asked for a photo and told him how much his music meant to me and he said 'Yer that's what they all say, get on with it'. Cant decide weather he was having a bad day or was just an asshole but Graham on the other hand was amazing and very chatty.
+Bruce Wendell Couldn't believe someone who is out of the public eye so much would be so un-willing even to be nice to a fan, especially considering Graham was the one that introduced me to him.
Twice, he stepped away from his career to help his cancer-stricken wife. What a devoted hubby. She recovered and is now an artist, she did the beautiful sculpture of Allan on his recent album.
In the midst of all the psychedelia, revolution and counterculture reverie, hearing a British invasion era Hollies song was like a breath of fresh air. There was something very special about them; even today those songs stand out.
In the early sixties I was a member of a couple of charities that put on shows that raised money for different charities. One week we had the Hollies (this was before massive PA systems). I was amazed that they sounded live exactly like their records. So professional...
Ah..Nash left both The Hollies and Crosby Stills Nash. He says in multiple interview's 2018... he will never speak to David Crosby again. On a Rock n.Roll Hall of Fame YT vid he complains about remaining Hollies not following his direction on song/record choices for his reason leaving. Says Crosby 'should be damned grateful I saved his ass all these years'.
Tony Hicks was a massive voice , his harmony with the others made the sound we all love as the Hollies ,as Alan Clarke and Graham Nash also did !! and don't forget our Bobby Elliot ... best drummer ever !!
I saw the Hollies in Gateshead on Friday and they were great. It gives me no pleasure to say it , but these three guys should pack it in. The were all once great but sadly not now.
Patrick Gorman I must add that The Hollies, the ones that stayed and the ones that are still performing, are still doing amazing with their voices. Tony Hicks still sings like a young boy. His voice hasn't changed at all... Sadly I cannot say the same about the mummies Nash and Clarke.
Seriously, I personally think that Tony Hicks should have took The Hollies' frontman role. Of course he can sing. He's the 3rd original harmony! No hate for Peter but I don't think he has the "spirit" to take Allan Clarke's place, I still can see a good performer in him... but never, never a FRONTMAN.
@@femaibenrigiel7958 Tony must have damn good genes.Certainly has a good attitude.. always positive never ever says anything negative in interviews. His voice guitar playing are amazing. And he looks great for 73. Still married to one only wife..45 years!
It was wonderful to see these two together after all this time they were classic in their day wonderful band ....so special lovely memories of a wonderful era..am so proud to have lived through that time...they look so well too god bless them both...keep on rockin
Well these groups abs singers from the 60s have stood the test of time and a lot are still going today where groups and singers after them have faded away early in their careers .shows that the sixties and 70s were the greatest years for music talent .Many peoples life’s at that time revolved around them and their music .
Has anyone watched the Noel Edmonds show from years ago where a man was a huge fan of the Hollies and Noel came to his house to surprise him, he’d put a jukebox in his sitting room and asked what song he’d like played, he chose “He ain’t heavy”, then they went to his back garden and all the hollies were there in his garden singing it. Brought some tears to my eyes at the time. I think the clip is on here somewhere. It’s very touching
Thank you so much for telling me about this video. I saw the original Noel Edmonds surprise visit, and then I saw it again on the compilation Noel Edmonds revisits Christmas 95, with an updated interview featuring the Hollies fan. The Hollies singing "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother", made me tear up a bit. Beautiful and incredible on many levels. Thanks again. 😊 🎶💙🎶
Allan had one of the best voices during the heydays of the Hollies - and this old geezer still looks smokin' hot to me! Thank you so much for posting this video!
I love this clip of Allan and Graham singing that Hollies classic, I was 8 years old when Bus Stop came out in 1966 although I wasn't a Hollies fan then. Allan in my opinion is still a good looking handsome man and can still sing beautifully. Thanks for sharing tis wonderful video.
About 30 years ago I worked with Allan Clarke's son Tim, who would've been born just about as the Hollies started charting. He rarely talked about his dad's career (I met Allan several times too, and both father and son were really 'down to earth', not at all 'showy' about his celebrity), but one time we were talking about it he told me "...and then Graham Nash left to form Crosby, Stills and Nash and became a megastar", and I thought "Tim, there's something you should know about your dad". I was a bit disappointed on his dad's behalf that he was so blase about his achievements, but then realised it's a testament to how he'd followed Graham's advice and taught his children well.
Allan Clarke , one of my favorites. He really moves me when the Hollies , He's Ain't Heavy He's My Brother with Allan Clarke's opening with a Harmonica reminds me of my late brother whose favorite musical instrument is the harmonica every time he sings.
Ive always loved Alan Clarke, I used to sit on the curb in front of our house with my radio and just listen to the music, those of us born in the 50’s had the best music ever, I was born in 1958
The iconic Allen Clark ,my God this is 1963 or I believe the spring of 64 , I was in Long Island attending Prep School and this was blaring all over AM radio waves , oh man I want to go back there.
Faaannnnntastic band , my uncle Paul and his band , The Solar System , used to play a lot of Hollies numbers when they did the cabaret circuit in 1960's and 70's Dublin and that introduced me to this great band
Alan Clark and Nash sing the bus stop the British UK invasion in special occasion is very surprising to see them together very emotional to see again Alan Clark after years Alan very special person and artists great voice always Alan very professional and dedicated I love it
When they came to the Philippines, I told myself there ain't no way that I'll mis their concert no matter what. They influenced me to pick up a guitar and learn how to play and sing. Now, I even got an autographed book by Graham Nash. Crosby Stills and Nash and of course Neil Young for life.
Song was written by Graham Gouldman a founding member of the rock group 10cc. Gouldman also wrote- Look Through Any Window for the Hollies. He wrote- For Your Love for the Yardbirds and No Milk Today for Herman's Hermits among others.

We all age (if we're lucky). He's more than earned the right to sing those songs any damn way he wants to.
So glad I was born in 1951 and got to be a teenager in the 60's What a lucky lad:)
I was born 61 but had older sister and friends so was brought up with all this lovely, great music.
@@elizabethhollatz9573 I’m the same age as you and also have an older sister and friends. Great music!
Me too. November 1950. 🙂
We were the Luckiest generation to hear this great music!!!!
Yes you can say that again. We were spoilt for choice.
Rebecca i have always said that. Thank goodness that it was the era of my life.
Just to be a part of that generation, Its only decades later that I realise how lucky I was,
Those big swing bands back in the 40s were pretty cool too (for "The Greatest Generation")

Was Crosby uptight?
What they call music today, rapp, is nothing more than bad poetry written by intellects barely worthy of the third grade.
Of all their great hits, none was greater than the rock anthem 'He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother!'

Much respect, Allan and Graham touched and formed my musical ambitions, loved this moment.
Yes Allan Clarke looks great I always admired him his voice is the outstanding Holly !!!

So great, I wish them well. Thank you for the memories.
Bus Stop was the first song I listened from their group when I was a kid & until now I still listen to the Hollies songs. Aug 28,2021
Has anyone watched the Noel Edmonds show from years ago where a man was a huge fan of the Hollies and Noel came to his house to surprise him, he’d put a jukebox in his sitting room and asked what song he’d like played, he chose “He ain’t heavy”, then they went to his back garden and all the hollies were there in his garden singing it. Brought some tears to my eyes at the time. I think the clip is on here somewhere. It’s very touching
Thx for sharing that info, I'll try to find the clip.
@@maryjvanderwerken3192 It’s lovely. Just type in Noel Edmonds The Hollies and it comes up
Thank you so much for telling me about this video. I saw the original Noel Edmonds surprise visit, and then I saw it again on the compilation Noel Edmonds revisits Christmas 95, with an updated interview featuring the Hollies fan. The Hollies singing "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother", made me tear up a bit. Beautiful and incredible on many levels. Thanks again. 😊 🎶💙🎶
Allan had one of the best voices during the heydays of the Hollies - and this old geezer still looks smokin' hot to me!
Thank you so much for posting this video!
Hello there,how are doing,how is the weather treating you?
They still got it!
clarke`s voice was so distinctive in the hollies sixties hits. great to see nash and clarke togeter.
I love the Hollies. So great to see Allan preforming. He had an amazing voice.
Love the Hollies music and both were great singers.
I love this clip of Allan and Graham singing that Hollies classic, I was 8 years old when Bus Stop came out in 1966 although I wasn't a Hollies fan then. Allan in my opinion is still a good looking handsome man and can still sing beautifully. Thanks for sharing tis wonderful video.

Wow, brings back great thoughts of this song and time when it was released.
I think Allan sounds great here. Awesome performance.
This song reminds me of waiting for the school bus in 8th grade. Great song, great band and great memories!! Thanks!
I got goosebumps watching that. They had been through a lot together. Good to see them doing well.
About 30 years ago I worked with Allan Clarke's son Tim, who would've been born just about as the Hollies started charting. He rarely talked about his dad's career (I met Allan several times too, and both father and son were really 'down to earth', not at all 'showy' about his celebrity), but one time we were talking about it he told me "...and then Graham Nash left to form Crosby, Stills and Nash and became a megastar", and I thought "Tim, there's something you should know about your dad".
I was a bit disappointed on his dad's behalf that he was so blase about his achievements, but then realised it's a testament to how he'd followed Graham's advice and taught his children well.
how he'd followed Graham's advice and taught his children well. Are you referring to Teach Your Children written by Graham Nash.
I love admire the fact that majority of Brit and Canadian musicans are very humble...at least the ones from this era.
Wow, Allen Clark, best voice ever
the hollies what a band ....
Allan Clarke , one of my favorites. He really moves me when the Hollies , He's Ain't Heavy He's My Brother with Allan Clarke's opening with a Harmonica reminds me of my late brother whose favorite musical instrument is the harmonica every time he sings.
Hello there,how are doing,how is the weather treating you?
Thank you for the love, I will be nothing without a fan like you.
So sweet and wonderful. One of the best songs ever written!
Ive always loved Alan Clarke, I used to sit on the curb in front of our house with my radio and just listen to the music, those of us born in the 50’s had the best music ever, I was born in 1958
It's quite a treat to hear Clarke, Nash perform.
Larry D Duncan It's too bad Clark looked awkward and lost on the stage. I'm not so sure he even wanted to be there, he left in such a hurry.
Clarke looked cool and for being 70 years old, real good. Mr. Jones
Which one is kt?
The iconic Allen Clark ,my God this is 1963 or I believe the spring of 64 , I was in Long Island attending Prep School and this was blaring all over AM radio waves , oh man I want to go back there.
I love the music of the Hollies and this one is my fav.
golden memories of a great band and singer. Best harmonies ever.
Faaannnnntastic band , my uncle Paul and his band , The Solar System , used to play a lot of Hollies numbers when they did the cabaret circuit in 1960's and 70's Dublin and that introduced me to this great band
Allan Clarke classy as a young man,classy as an older man,a teenager in the sixties,in London,the best.
Hello there,how are you doing,how is the weather treating you over there?
Three absolute music legends, wow, what a fabulous line up, love this!
I always loved the Hollies I love them more now than ever. Long live Graham Nash and the Hollies. !
cool! great to see them again....love The Hollies!
Hello there,how are doing,how is the weather treating you?
These guys sound as good as they did back in the 60's !!! Thanks guys !!
Well, no, that's not true. They clearly don't!
Alan Clark and Nash sing the bus stop the British UK invasion in special occasion is very surprising to see them together very emotional to see again Alan Clark after years Alan very special person and artists great voice always Alan very professional and dedicated I love it
When they came to the Philippines, I told myself there ain't no way that I'll mis their concert no matter what. They influenced me to pick up a guitar and learn how to play and sing. Now, I even got an autographed book by Graham Nash. Crosby Stills and Nash and of course Neil Young for life.
I was at this gig and as a Hollies and then CSN fan it was a massive pleasure to see Allan & Graham together again. Great night with C&N
Crosby, Clarke and Nash. Wow!
Can't think of many better lead vocalists than allan Clark.
Strange but allan seems to be singing harmony to graham here.
Song was written by Graham Gouldman a founding member of the rock group 10cc. Gouldman also wrote- Look Through Any Window for the Hollies. He wrote- For Your Love for the Yardbirds and No Milk Today for Herman's Hermits among others.
At the time, I believe he was working in a gentleman's clothes outfitters during the day and playing with his group at night.....
Oh, my...I got old with them...60's and 70's were the best in music...Thanks for shearing this video...
It sounded awesome! One of the nicest songs ever wriiten.
