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.

I've always loved the Hollies, and even had a great conversation with Bobby such a nice guy made my 40th birthday, I was going to say even though I love the Nash years I think when Terry came into the band there harmony got tighter, some of there 70s albums like Distant light are amazing..

T.S. did a great job w/ the Hollies being that filling the shoes of Graham Nash wasn't an easy one. At the tender age of 22 he did a GREAT job. A very good looking young man who harmonized w/ the best of them. And playing alongside a masterful guitarist as Tony Hicks, Sylvester was picked because he was well capable. Tony Hicks was & still is a real sweetheart of a man. They all played well together. Thumbs UP for Terry Sylvester.

Such a great band that put out more hits than most people have hair on their head. Terry Sylvester what is an amazing addition to the world of Music in this group and they couldn't have picked a better replacement if they searched the entire planet. And what's amazing about their music is you can play it and play and will never get old !

Having sang in a vocal act myself, I appreciate the dire need for a singer who is talented enough to cover top harmonie and instrumental duties simultaneously. And to replace someone like Graham Nash! My god, what a challenge. I'm a huge fan. You're a great bass player as well. Thank You.

A very interesting couple of interviews. Yes he does have a very similar voice and mannerisms to Macca. It's the nice middle class scouse accent that is so nice to hear. He's very modest and very eloquent. A really great guy...and he still has a good head of hair the luck devil :)

I remember watching Terry as the lead singer in the 70's and just like he said "To the USA, I'm the lead singer to Long Cool Woman" I held that memory for 36 years until I found out Alan was lead and that was just a year ago. I wonder how many other US fans thought the same as long as I have.

mary quant : Loved the Hollies, but rejecting Marrakesh Express was a big boo-boo. If ever there was a Hollies-song, that was it. About the mannerisms: yep, definitely McCartney, the somewhat feminine head wiggling and of course the eyebrows. Unfortunately for Terry, that's about it as far as similarities goes.

The Hollies were never as good without Terry Sylvester as they were with him. I saw them two times with him and two times without him so I can tell. Why was he thrown out before "What Goes Around"? (Well, in this case, lucky for him...) I'm waiting for part three!

Terry and Bernie both left the band in 1981. I'm not familiar with the reason(s). Neither were invited to take part in "What Goes Around" but it was a reunion of the earlier era Hollies with Nash and Haydock taking part.
@harrybyrd

You probably are right (except for Haydock who did not take part). I just thought that the circumstances of Terry's leaving could be clearer if we could see part three.

Bobby Elliotts book is less than complimentary about Terry's last few days with the group. Its stated that Terry had said that "The Hollies are nothing without me" in a showdown with Tony Hicks (who clearly had become the leader of the group) Tony told him the group did not exist just because of Terry. Terry was incensed and put his hand out which Tony shook ....Terry left.

@moorlock2003
@moorlock2003 17 лет назад
Not the first time an obvious hit was originally placed as a B side. In 1967, Lulu had an A side called "The Boat That I Row". The B side? Oh, a little tune called "To Sir With Love", which went to No. 1 for about 4 weeks or so.
@moorlock2003
@moorlock2003 15 лет назад
Because "The Boat That I Row" was her then-current UK chart hit, and because it was written by Neil Diamond, who wrote The Monkees' megahit "I'm A Believer". I've seen the single; "The Boat....." had a huge red "A" on the promo copies, while "To Sir with Love" was on the B side. Epic obviously realized their mistake and then flipped the sides, creating one of 1967's biggest hits. "To Sir...", by the way, was not released as an A side in the UK, much to Lulu's dismay.

@LG-kl3co
@LG-kl3co 5 лет назад
When you watch these interviews I think Terry actually had a legitimate reason to sing a couple of verses in Long Cool woman. I am not sure he was intoxicated, probably there was some bad blood as Terry left the group when they decided to change managers. Much has been said and will no doubt continue to be said about the RRHF, but the events are disappearing into history. You have to wish all the surviving members and ex members of the Hollies well having just recently lost one of the original band members in Eric Haydock .....

Nash had a more distinctive voice. If it hadn't been for Nash going Stateside, it would be unlikely anyone would have heard of Sylvester. He was in the right place at the right time. That said, I went to my first Hollies concert in 1975 -- he was very good. IMHO, the original is always the best. Nash for me.
@nanb.8953
@nanb.8953 4 года назад
Their best songs were after Nash left. I think nostalgia must play a great part in your opinion. Their sound "matured" after Sylvester joined. Less "twangy." Less Teeny Bop. Crosby Stills and Nash was a better mix for Graham Nash. I think it was just meant to be.
@plasticpenguin1
@plasticpenguin1 4 года назад
@@nanb.8953 hi lindia. Not nostalgia. I was only 5-years-old when Nash left. I saw them live 3 times between 1975-79 and Sylvester was a good replacement - however, they lost that distinctive harmonies after Nash

@JanBee1122 3 года назад
@@plasticpenguin1 Interesting perspective. I think they both sang great harmonies, but I feel Nash could never have filled in for Sylvester in any of the subsequent hits like Air That I Breath, except for maybe Sorry Suzanne (very much an early Hollies sound.) Conversely, Terry filled in for Nash extremely effectively on the older Hollies tunes after Nash left. Terry is more versatile I guess is my point and in my personal opinion.
@plasticpenguin1
@plasticpenguin1 3 года назад
Think Sylvester had a 'smoother' harmony. But the notion that Nash couldn't fill in for Sylvester is not true. A couple of examples is I last went to a Hollies gig in 1983 & Nash did a few gigs - he was mind blowing good. Also on the 'Sing Dylan' album, the first album to feature Sylvester, the track "Blowing In The Wind", Nash made the first recording, which never appeared on the album. I've seen The Hollies 4 times between 1975-83, and Sylvester was a good fax copy, but Nash IMHO was the genuine article. As we all know, music is very subjective.
