Michael Rickfors had taken over the lead vocal role with the Hollies while Allan Clark was off pursuing his solo career.

This song hit #60 in the USA not charting in the UK at all.

It deserved to do better.

I'm pretty sure this song charted well in Australia. It received quite a bit of radio airplay throughout the 70's, 80's and even early 90's.

Wow -- did Michael Rickfors ever give the Hollies a different sound -- in fact I had no idea this song was by them. To me, it sounds more like Crosby, Stills and Nash in its approach. Good song!

Even if this is not the *sound of the Hollies* , these guys still created great harmonies, even without Graham and Allan. Many of the songs they recorded during this time period were great..

this song really was big in New Zealand,,and really, it has the classic Hollies sound and flavour It really is a "5 monkeys" situation - the culture and sound remained with just 2 original members, just goes to show the integrity of the energy that was generated. (5 monkeys is an experiment in behaviour and attitude that was done in the 80's,,,,,check it out online).... :-)

I agree with you entirely on Romany: ther is not in fact a single duff song on that album. The band had such a versatile skill-mix at this point, and it really is hard to think of Allan making the album any better. That's not to say Allan was crap: of course he wasn't. His voice defined the band in many ways. But the Romany album just wasn't the sort of thing he could have done justice to, and I'd go as far as to say that he'd agree. Other LPs, brilliant. But would not have been on Romany.

@macboymike I agree. Romany is a great album and while I may upset the purists, I would venture to say that it would not have been nearly as good with Allan. His absence, and the addition of Rickfors, allowed the group to really stretch out. If one compares (for example) the versions of songs from the Rickfors period to those when Allan returned, it is my feeling that Hey Granny, Out On The Road and Trans-Atlantic Westbound Plane were superior without Allan, as great as he is.
