The Hollies new box set

If you have the brick-thick jewel box set of Graham Nash era Hollies on EMI from a few years back, here's it's perfect shelf companion. A 5 CD set similarly encased for the years 1969-73 and for only £17. All their post Nash albums and singles up to 1973 in one place.

It is a cheap and cheerful way to explore the group's later output. As I wrote in a previous post on this era,I think apart form the 'Hollies Sing Dylan' album, it's all very worthwhile and enjoyable.

PS - I will be forming up the first edition of the RZ eZine in June. If anyone wants to add their twopence worth in the form of an article, a record / CD / DV d review or whatever, don't be shy - and many thanks to everyone who has contributed written offerings thus far!

Re: The Hollies new box set

lol Paul Hollies sing Dylan is a fav of mine ...but then i love covers

Re: The Hollies new box set

No probs Phil. It's not that they're covers I dislike, just the rather 'caberet' like arrangements of the songs. I could listen to the Byrds covering Dylan all day long though!

snap!

Re: The Hollies new box set

Nice find Paul!
I've not ordered from Spin CD's before, but my order is in. As you said, this will make a great companion to the Clark, Hicks & Nash Years box set...

I never followed The Hollies much after Nash's departure - although I did buy the 'Hollies Sing Dylan' lp a long, long time ago and was left feeling 'meh' (as those kids say these days).
