I do love Allan Clarke! He's very talented, but, most of all...he seems to be a real gentleman AND he's still married to his FIRST wife. AMAZING! I love to watch the old Hollies videos, too! I'll have to check out the new album.
I'm so glad that Allan is still with us and creating music. I grew up listening to the Hollies. Great music then and still listen to it now. Thank you Allan for all the great music throughout the years!
What a wonderful man, what a wonderful interview and one that brought back so many very fond memories for me. My lifetime love for the Hollies began when I purchased my first single record, We're Through, in 1964 at the age of 11. It was the harmonies that drew me to the band then and still does. I just listened to Buddy's Back on UA-cam and Alan and Graham can still do it - great track. I hope we can hear more from them. I am 70 in August and battling prostate cancer myself. Alan should get out on a small venues tour. No need to sing too many songs. Telling us some of those on the road band stories would be brilliant for the many fans as well. Perhaps Graham could appear as a guest if he is in the country. God bless you Alan and many, many thanks.
Sorry to hear you're battling cancer Martin, I wish you the greatest luck in beating it. As for Allan, he is such a gent and has fantastic stories. Your idea about a tour including a short set and stories is a fantastic idea!
A great interview with one of my all time heroes. I've followed the Hollies from the 1960's up to the present day and seeing Allan in his heyday was incredible. One of the greatest singers of all time, so its wonderful to see Allan still making music and looking so well. How about doing some "Guest" appearances with the current Hollies line up Allan? I'm sure the fans would love to see you again, and boy would it bring the punters in! Thank you Allan for all the memories.
I'm soo glad your ok now, ivè had cancer twice, but I'm still hear listening to you the Hollies and your music and enjoying it. Take good care of yourself I want to hear more .
I've always been a Hollies fan and a fan of the solo stuff, I'm 48 and got into the Hollies back in the 80s, being a singer and ex drummer myself, the Hollies and Everlys are my idiols, I'm having trouble with my vocals at the moment with mtd but battle on..long live Alan Graham and the Hollies, can't wait for the album.
Clarkey don’t forget was singing clubs and venues in those days where smoking allowed,inhaling all the smoke and masterful voice belting out all those famous hits his voice took a hell of a battering.It’s great seeing one of the greatest lead singers of our day.
No mention of the autotune, eh? I wonder if it's all over the album, if it being on his vocals on "Buddy's Back" is any indication. It doesn't sound right against Graham's pure vocals.

im 67 and love the hollies but can't keep subscribing cos of your no reply to comments?
But this is not The Hollies its Allan Clarke who retired from the band years ago and Nash left a lifetime ago !
What.. . no music?
He needs his ponytail and his stubble beard like in 1993.
No mention of the autotune, eh? I wonder if it's all over the album, if it being on his vocals on "Buddy's Back" is any indication. It doesn't sound right against Graham's pure vocals.
Give him a break. He’s 82 for goodness sake.
Nasty and uncalled for.
