Hollies
I snuck into a concert in 1965 ‘ish, featuring the Stones and the Hollies.  The Stones were a local band I’d seen live quite a bit, but power players at that time - the Hollies were up and coming on the wave of Northern bands; it was a Saturday afternoon in Guildford.  The Hollies were openers. 

The Hollies performed this song almost exactly as you hear it here.  I Can’t Let Go.   I couldn’t believe how tight and talented this band was.  Over the years, their influence and contributions have been far-reaching and sadly underplayed. 

To Graham and Allan, Tony, Bernie and Bobby, this is a recognition loooooong overdue.   Thanks for the great music.
