When Graham Nash decided to leave The Hollies in late 1968, the group called upon an old friend to fill Nash's big shoes, Terry Sylvester then of The Swinging Blue Jeans and previously a member of The Escorts.
With Terry taking over from Nash as second lead vocalist and second guitarist, The Hollies moved into the most succesful phase of their career scoring mega-hits with "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother", "Long Cool Woman In A Black Dress" and "The Air That I Breathe".
Sylvester left The Hollies in 1981 but continues to perform featuring songs from all phases of his amazing career.
This exclusive interview with Keith Hampshire, formerly of Radio Caroline and a succesful recording artist in his own right, is a must see for all fans of the British Invasion and specifically of The Hollies.
The next installment of this interview will feature Terry discussing his solo career including work with Alan Parsons.
