The Real Reason The Hollies Clashed with Graham Nash in 1968

In the mid-60s, The Hollies were one of the UK’s most successful pop groups, known for hits like Bus Stop and Carrie Anne. Their polished sound and signature harmonies made them a staple of the British Invasion. But by 1967, Graham Nash was pushing for a more experimental, psychedelic direction—one that clashed with the band’s radio-friendly formula. As visions clashed, The Hollies faced a turning point that would ultimately reshape their future and rock history itself. This is the story of the battle over The Hollies’ sound, and the lasting impact of their artistic crossroads and what happened after the turning point. **Unfortunately, I was forced to remove the song Bus Stop by the record company which revised a couple of spots. Not my choice.
