The Hollies have always been revered for their impeccable harmonies, and rightly so, but they also had in Tony Scott an amazing, incredible drummer. The Who would ve ditched Keith Moon in a heartbeat if they could have attracted Tony; he was every bit as powerfull and way more disciplined.
@problem49 I'm fairly certain the Hollies' drummer's name was Bobby Elliott... and I disagree about that Keith Moon comment. The Who couldn't have made it without him, and every member of the group acknowledged that.
Indeed it WAS Bobby Elliott on drums. He replaced original drummer Don Rathbone who wasn't ready to turn full time pro. Bobby said of his sound that at times, his drums sounded like cannons going off! When they covered George Harrison's "If I NeededSomeone" he disparagingly said it sounded like a bunch of session musicians. Bobby took that as a compliment because he'd have loved to have done sessions for other people. I don't think Ron Richards ever had to hire a session man!
Good morning, do you like sixties? Listen and pod cast my program " great sound of 60' s " on the site plumfm. Greeting and made blooper in rock and roll.
Salut, vous aimez les sixties ? Ecoutez et podcatez mon émission "le super son des sixties" sur plum fm. Salut et faites gaffe au rock'n roll.
Not a lot is said about Bobby Elliott but this guy was probably the best drummer in contemporary music at the time. His drumming was in another class from the rest of the bands back then. Bobby should take a lot more credit from the fans.
Robert Plant also covered this song great.

anyone who knows this song with the lyrics in the chorus "but you don't love me at all"? this song is from the 50's or 60's.

Sick surf style guitar sound on this. I'm having a custom tube spring reverb made for me right now. I wonder if its a stratocaster.
