Great stuff – thanks. A band that definitely deserves a feature.
As to the dreaded “I hope someone doesn’t post this song before I do …” I had two other Three Dog songs planned (one of those completely finished) when I got nailed by Beard.
Thanks for your work on these fantastic tunes, ws54!

Nice work! Thanks so much. Two of those were going to be in my WiP soon, so glad I can just get to playing them now.
Love your work, ws54. This is a really neat pack from a somewhat lesser known band.
“lesser known band”???
Shame on you, Samjjones! The Hollies were inducted into the R&R Hall of Fame in 2010!
They’ve been recording since 1962, put out 24 albums and over 5 dozen singles in the US and UK.
Lesser known indeed!
Hits besides the seven beauties in WS54’s release include:
Long Cool Woman
Stop Stop Stop
Carrie Anne
Look Through Any Window
Pay You Back With Interest
Sorry Suzanne
I get that these guys aren’t The Who or The Beatles and that they peaked in the 60’s/70’s, but lesser known? To an aficionado like yourself, I find your statement confusing, at best.
We now return you to your previously scheduled surfing.

Dude, *I*, of course, know who The Hollies are!
I’m just inferring that several of our younger forum colleagues may have never heard of them.
I remember when some people here had never heard of Steely Dan, for example, either.
“Long Cool Woman” is one of my absolute favorite guitar licks of all-time, sir!!!
Let’s kiss and make up, because I don’t want to go to bed mad.
XOXO

Yup. This could have easily been a 14-pack, and I started on Carrie Anne, but the vocals are quite complicated and guitar didn’t sound interesting to me, which is a big factor in the songs I choose. I may revisit The Hollies again in the future though.
In the meantime, I have a nice big 6-pack coming up very soon from a group I’ve already charted.
Thanks for all the comments. It’s nice to know people are enjoying the songs.
I shall play through these tonight with the gang. Thanks so much

Reading that makes the tiny hairs on the back of my neck stand up straight!

I thought to myself “Sam sees The Hollies as lesser-known? SAM???? He’s old as dirt!” So telling me that you were speaking for other members makes much more sense. I tried to make my point to my wife by saying “You know The Hollies, right?” She says no. I play her a few songs, she says “Yeah, I heard a couple of them before – kinda obscure.” My reaction:
Then she told me I’m old. So it looks like we can be old together, Sam.
Just… separate beds, ok?

I am hoping it’s April Wine, they have a lot of great stuff out there that hasn’t been charted yet.
Bravo!
