Interesting reaction from Graham Nash to 'All You Need Is Love'. The Hollies' producer Ron Richards was at the recording session for the orchestral crescendo to 'A Day In The Life'. Witnessing the 40 piece orchestra resplendent in funny hats, red noses and with balloons tied to their instruments and then hearing the full track with its astonishing ending stunned him. He was seen sitting in the corner of the control room with his head in his hands saying " I just can't believe it....I give up".

@@peliche77 The Hollies made some great records; "I'm alive", "Look Through Any Window", "Bus Stop". The post-Nash era was horrible. I hated "He Ain't Heavy He's My Brother", and still do. Meanwhile, Graham had a big part in turning Crosby Stills, Nash & Young into true legends. Meanwhile in the UK, the Hollies should have disbanded immediately! More or less the same with the Dave Clark Five. An amazing beat, excellent vocals, and in 1968 they suddenly went totally middle of the road... For instance, they relesed an inferior single titled "Everybody Knows". They did an Everybody Knows already in 1965, a totally different song and my favorite among DC5's early ballads. The harmonies are quite daring! The 1968 Everybody Knows is just sleep inducing.

Ray Davies tells an interesting story about how Graham came to their defense when The Kinks went on their first UK tour with the DC5 headlining, along with The Hollies, Marianne Faithful, and The Kinks at the bottom of the bill. Pye Records (Kinks UK label) weren't happy with the reports coming back about their "unprofessional" stage act and sent a Rep to visit them and make changes, which The Kinks didn't like. Apparently, Graham stepped in and told the Rep that they were fine the way they were, and to leave them free to develop their own identity as a band. Ray never forgot that kindness and wrote about it in his "Unauthorized Autobiography", X Ray (1994). By the way, I've always loved Dave's "Death Of A Clown" and have never noticed it being out of tune. Nicky Hopkins plays the piano on it, and they put thumb-tacks on the strings to achieve that distinctive effect. I don't know whether Pye Studios had a 4-track machine then, or just a 3, but it was most likely recorded in one or two 3-hour sessions. "Death Of A Clown" didn't get airplay and didn't chart in the US, but neither did "Waterloo Sunset". The last time they'd had a hit here was in late summer of 1966 with "Sunny Afternoon" (US #14), and right after that, Reprise Records released "The Kinks Greatest Hits", which got to #9 and also went Gold. Greatest Hits-type lps were often compiled when a record company assessed one of its artists as having peaked and being on the way out. Those sorts of albums will usually be best-sellers, making money for the record company, and allowing them to recoup some of their investment. Reprise got it wrong and The Kinks persisted.

Well, Graham doesn’t any punches here, does he? His opinions sound pretty reasonable to me on the whole, but I’m going to have to check to see if Most really did use the very same “backing track” for both the Donovan and the Herman’s Hermits recordings of “Museum”. That would be pretty cheeky.
@jeffryphillipsburns2 жыл бұрын
Okay, I just checked: Graham is dead wrong. The arrangements and instrumental performances on these two records are very different. I prefer the Herman’s Hermits arrangement. It’s more elaborate but also cleaner. Peter Noone seems to have some trouble with the higher notes, but otherwise his singing is okay, if a bit perfunctory. (It turns out, by the way, that there’s a tertium quid: a Donovan out-take. I prefer the Hermits’s “backing track” to the out-take’s also.)

Some interesting 45s there. Not keen at all on Frank Ifield and The Troggs version of Hi Hi Hazel ( Geno's is marginally better but who did it first?).

Museum belongs to Donovan and Donovan only methinks.

I have to admit that "A Little Bit of Soul" on the US top ten list is on my all-time worst 60's hit songs. Hearing it once was enough, but that summer I must have heard it a hundred times. Lucky for the Brits the song didn't make it there. On the other side, Dave Davies' clown song is one of my later favorites, and I'm so sorry it didn't make it in the states.
