He's a very charming man. Great performance Terry.

What a great song! It always takes me right back to 1974 and all of the good times of that era. Thankyou Terry and of course "The Hollies". Your version is excellent.

very nice song...a completely beautiful classic... i remenber listen once to an unplugged version of this song, but i cannot find it, ... not sure if it was performed by terry sylvester, Pearl jam, or Neil young, but it was just perfect... well, i hope anyone of you can know some info about it and let me know... Thanks for sharing this amazing song...

[ocarrington]

Yeah Terry you did it ... you are an awsome singer and a wonderful man keep up the good work!

[MostEasterlySteve]

Not a hardcore Hollies fan but having trawled through a few versions of this magnificent song, this is my favourite. I know Allan's voice was so piercingly distinctive but in every other version I've heard after their original the harmonies never quite regained the punch of the record...so you have to adapt to what you can do on stage with fewer musicians and no overdubs! That's why I think this a very well judged rendition by Terry. I really like the electric guitarist's parts in this too. A+!

Muchas memorias de mi juventud!

[rbkpetroleo]

Awesome... Terry Sylvester certainly was a centrepiece of the Hollies during his time between 1969-1981. Check out his solo work, too. He´s got his own website and offers a collection of some of his solo material recorded between 1973 and 1981, with which I spent a lot of happy hours in my younger years. Hope he´s enjoying his life in Canada.

Hi Christian -

Believe it or not, Terry performed with John Ford Coley last night at a local restaurant/comedy club - only 20 minutes from me. However, I did not know about the show until it was too late - it was a real disappointment.

Anyway, I'm glad you liked this video - he did a nice job!

[ricogarion]

Very nice effort that sounds exceptionally well done,Terry always had my respect and admiration.You just can't help but like this classy gentleman.

[Poopaloo55]

Right on. Terry is a class act. There are still those who regret that Graham left and they're entitled to their opinion, but Terry's voice harmonized so well with Allan (xx)and Tony and he was solid with them for all those years. He deserves credit for keeping the Hollies' harmonic sound alive through thick and thin. Bless you, Terry!

[k1fjh]

Hi - He was the organizing force behind Griffin, Sylvester and Coley as well - he promoted and organized the three Toronto-area shows, which is where I taped these videos.

[Poopaloo55]

Thanks for replying with this info. I live in Toronto and I'm sorry I missed it. I heard that Terry lives here some of the time; is that correct?

[k1fjh]

Yes - he's in the Mississauga area.

[Poopaloo55]

Wow....you mean while I'm shovelling snow, THE Terry Sylvester is shovelling too, just down the road?...COOL! Looking forward to the next TO gig...I'll be there for sure!

[k1fjh]

They had great harmonies at this show!!

[shootthebusstop]

This song just gets me everytime I hear it. I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!I know Allan sings it like no other, but this version by Tezzer is WONDERFUL!!!!!!!! Thanks ro rating it and bringing it to my attention. You're a pal.

[citybeat60]
