The Hollies - Listen To Us (1968)

 1968 was the last year Graham Nash would be in The Hollies, growing dissatisfied with their infighting, and seeking hope in L.A. with CSN. Before he left to join Crosby and Stills in the states, he recorded some more singles before bouncing from The Hollies. Again, there's only eleven tracks, and one of them is an edit where they took the vocals from a Nash solo demo of the later CSN tune "Marrakesh Express", and laid them over an instrumental backing track recorded by The Hollies in '68.


The cover is a modified version of the 1968 "Hollies' Greatest" lp
