This compilation is filled with many of my favourites which include "Do The Best You Can", "Carrie Anne", "Everything Is Sunshine", "Sorry Suzanne", and "Confessions Of A Mind" just to name a few. It's even got some unreleased tracks like "Schoolgirl" and "Signs Of The Times" which really are worth hearing. This compilation includes the big hit, "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother" as well as a song many haven't heard, "Mad Professor Blyth". A great tune, "'Cos You Like To Love Me", written by lead guitarist Tony Hicks, is yet another favourite of mine. Overall, this is something any Hollies fan should get, plus it's got some talking before some songs by the wonderful members of The Hollies. (Note: it's a lot cheaper to get all three of these 'The Hollies at Abbey Road' compilations separately rather than together.)

This review is from: Hollies at Abbey Road 1966-1970 (Audio CD)

To begin with, I've recently learned that leadsinger, Allan Clarke, has retired from the Hollies due to personalcircumstances. Regarding the CD at hand, here's where the quality of their estimable output begins to falter. While the sound is excellent, the Abbey Road series passes over a few hits, contains unreleased material and intrductory studio conversation that those seeking a catch-all compilation may find distracting. But there are rewards to be had, and this second installment will leave even the casual listener wondering why many of these tracks were left unfinished or unreleased until now. It is safe to say, if you've purchased one of the series, you'll want all three, as there's no counterpart, in sound or variety, to the Abbey Road releases in the entire Hollies' compendium. END
