Very heavy guitar for a "pop" group.

The Searchers had a minor hit with this song and it was really good.

Ron Richards was not their manager

The Hollies original members were together in a band around 1961 under various names.

The Hollies were writing songs from 1963 ('Whole World Over', 'Now's The Time', 'Hey, What's Wrong With Me' etc)

Clarke & Nash wrote 'Running Through The Night' in 1961

From 1964 to mid 1966 Clarke, Hicks & Nash wrote as 'Ransford' - 'We're Through' made No.7 in the UK charts in 1964

@NewHopeNashFan:

I've no doubt Ron did teach Graham - but they were political skills. Graham's problem at that time was a creative one. He was looking to break new ground, but Ron wanted to stay with the tried and true. Had this not been the case, Graham would have stayed with The Hollies.

At the time, I was sad that he'd quit - but I was also very impressed with CS&N's first album when it came out..

Mixed blessings I guess .....

@GerryLayton1 I would not blame Ron Richards - who the great Graham Nash credits today with teaching him the skills it took to shepherd CSN.

[GerryLayton1]

Most of the Hollies releases were vetted by their manager Ron Richards - which is why Graham Nash ulitimately left the group. It was too restricting for him.

This song was one of eight originals of the Hollies (they were writing under the collective moniker of "L.Ransford" in those days) that they contributed to the Everly Brothers 1967 album "Two Yanks In England". They also did most of the session work as well.
