The Hollies - Just One Look

[@roberthaydock2340]

love this video - that's my dad playing bass - what a dude - miss you dad - thanks for leaving me this & so much more - love you man!

[@SixtiesRule-gi5xf]

Thanks, Robert, for sharing your memories! Your dad was a very handsome fellow and a great bassist!

[@77konky]

Your Dad was a great bass player. Is that a six string Fender Bass VI? I don't think many bass players were playing those this early on, although I know the Beatles acquired one in 1968 or 1969 for Lennon and Harrison to play when McCartney played something other than bass. I'm glad your Dad was included when the Hollies were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of fame in 2010.

[@jimm6095]

[@6269Sixtiesrule]

So sorry for your loss, Robert. Many of us Hollies fans loved and admired your Dad and are sorry to hear of his passing!😢💔

Bloody great man, miss you Mr Eric Haydock

[@daveanderson9973]

I’m too young to have been around when this was new but had the pleasure of hearing it played by my late mum. Truly adore all of the Hollie’s music for my own sentimental value

[@270yis7]

Always love the raw, unpolished sound of early live rock 'n roll. My opinion has long been that good rock 'n roll shouldn't sound too slick, so love these vintage performances.

Tony Hicks is the most underrated guitar player ever

[@ovalvox7888]

Especially since Nash’s guitar is always inaudible live. Here he’s playing an acoustic not plugged into anything. Hicks did all the work on guitar with little help from Nash.

[@dontgoout1434]

Just ok met few times in 60s

[@billgrimes7146]

I think one of the reasons Nash left is because he got tired of being overshadowed musically by Tony Hicks. I mean, there are other reasons, and that’s really just speculation. He also wanted to move to the States and he was writing some stuff the Hollies didn’t want to do, soooooo.

[@ovalvox7888]

@@billgrimes7146He left because they wanted to do a tribute album to Bob Dylan.

[@paul-ok7uw]

My Mum and Dad grew up with all these 60's bands. They saw them all in their heyday and then again when many of them did the working mens clubs in the UK in the70's.To have seeet he Hollies would have been awesome, but i did got to see Gerry and the Pacemakers, the Swinging Blue Jeans and Wayne Fontana and the Mindbenders in the 70"s. Great memories from a great era of music that will never be matched

[@yesterdayproductions1019]

Now, that is live raw powerful rock N roll with great vocals & great guitar sound through those Vox amps.

What an amazing amount of talent has come from those islands floating in the North Atlantic.

[@user-qz3wv7tq6v]

I was a fan of The Hollies since 'Searchin'. I've spent a lifetime as a musician and have been influenced strongly by Graham Nash's harmonies, which kept me in work for many, many years. Sadly, those days have gone, but through clips like this, I can re-live them, even though I had to give up 'the game' due to ill health. Thanks for posting. You've made an old man very happy.

[@erwinweishaupl4507]

Das waren noch Zeiten, sehr guter Titel. Konnte die Hollies einmal Life erleben, die waren sehr gut.

[@jduff59]

Graham and Eric look so damned cool here, and the music was great, raw pop!

[@aaee1722]

Had the honour of supporting the Hollies in late '64 at Queen's Ballroom, Wolverhampton UK. I'd only been playing drums for around 18 months. I did the best I could but I was totally blown away by Bobby!!!

[@ramroduk]

Great song, great musicians, and brill vocal harmony. Fantastic inimitable sound!

[@clivecernuschi7827]

For Robert Haydock.....your Dad was an extremely underrated bass player and a great exponent of the six-string. I have watched this video on numerous occasion for both the quality of the live performance and for Eric's bass playing which holds the whole song together.

[@roberthaydock2340]

That's kind of you to say Clive & I agree 100%. My Dad really should have gone on to even bigger things - I wish I knew why he didn't - other than maybe the way he was dismissed from the Hollies knocked the confidence out of him a little. It wouldn't have been so bad but - as we now know today - his mistrust of the management of the band was actually quite insightful & well founded after all . Ah well, he loved his time in the band & his is a pretty fine legacy I think. All the best to you & all Hollies fans everywhere ..

[@jduff59]

@@roberthaydock2340 I played bass and guitar in bands for over 30 years, and I thought Eric was one of the finest (and coolest) bassists from the Beat Era. He made it look so easy, and his parts were intriguing. I reckon like me - he realised just how rotten the music business gets - I still love music, but you can keep the music business. The Hollies music would have grown much better with him, than without him. That's how I feel at least.

[@roberthaydock2340]

@@jduff59 Thanks for your kind words & observations on my Dad. It is only really now, when he's gone, that I start to appreciate what a real talent he was as a bass player. I thank you & other bass players for bringing this awareness to the fore because there's no greater compliment than that from other musicians. I agree in thinking the Hollies would have been a better band with my Dad in them. Their style changed after he left but then musical styles & tastes changed generally too & it would have been interesting to see how my Dad could have influenced that future dynamic. He was sacked by the Hollies for suggesting that the business was rotten & they should have all been getting a better deal. He had commitments & stuck his neck out. Of course, with hindsight he was right . Iit was a pretty shoddy way to go & maybe he never really fully found his feet again musically - which was the real tragedy!. Anyway, thanks again for your appreciation. He'd have been touched ..

Have recently been researching The Hollies. Pretty much amazing. They did not originate this song, but you’ve heard it from many. Look how similar they are to Beatles. Hollies were 2-3 years after Beatles.

[@danielkelly1274]

Saw them on a 'Package' tour in the 60'S (Cardiff) Best band there ! 'real' singing and a tight performance, Stella

[@supafrogg258]

The Hollies did a quite enjoyable arrangement of Doris Troy's 1963 hit, Just One Look. It sounds like it would be a very fun song to perform. Though the Hollies were from Manchester England, theirs was a Mersey Beat type sound. The Mersey Beat movement was the main style of music produced by groups from Northern England, during the '50s & '60s, particularly around the Liverpool area, modeled especially after the music of African American R & B artists.

[@HudsonsShotgun]

I've heard it said that all that kept the Hollies from being bigger than the Beatles was not being from Liverpool. They were Manchester's Beatles. A great band.

[@VirreFriberg]

What kept the Hollies from being that big was in my opinion the reluctance of their producer Ron Richards to let them release original compositions as singles. It wouldn't be until October 1966's "Stop Stop Stop" (with the exception of September 1964's "We're Through") that the A-sides of the band's singles were exclusively penned by group members

Quality

[@anpr1984]

Apparently Graham never usee to have his guitar connected to an amplifier.

[@KieroUnasBotasAGoGo]

That was because they wanted a similar sound to Johnny Kidd & The Pirates - only Lead Guitar - bass and Drums or at least that was said about this

[@bryanpalmer9660]

According to drummer Bobby Elliot it was intentional,to keep the sound compact and sparse-Graham would play(?)guitar on tv shows and concerts during the early years but in the rec studio he never "plugged in"

As a bass player although not quite as well known as your dad😁I used to try and figure out his bass lines and they were brilliant! It’s good to know he was a great dad too.

[@roberthaydock2340]

The sound of the records played live were often quite different to that produced in the studio. I love the Hollies live sound. It suited my Dad's bass playing style, which many said had an urgency about it. You'll hear that same sound in the Beatles & many other bands of the era. Don't forget, most records back then were like 2 or maximum 3 minutes long. It was a pure and essential rock n roll sound ..
