Cycleracer   10 #1 Posted February 23, 2021 I have been trying to find an album the Hollies recorded during a live concert at the City Hall in 1974. I cannot trace this album anywhere but I know they recorded the concert at the City Hall as I was there. I have been in touch with there current manager (this is a few years ago though) I believe he was not the original manager of that time and he has come up with nothing. Was anyone else at that concert in 1974, it wasn't a massive audience it was quite modest who may remember it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

sheffworker   11 #3 Posted February 26, 2021 Can’t help you with the album, but that was the first proper gig I went to, aged 13. Mum worked at Debenhams and they gave out some free tickets. She got a couple on the day and we went that night. I remember really enjoying it!  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
abbeyedges   81 #4 Posted February 26, 2021 Not really helping with your question but I remember 'The Air That I Breathe' was a huge hit in 1974. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Sharon Crow   1 #5 Posted February 27, 2021 Hi Sheffworker I also worked at Debenhams (Pauldens) at that time and was given free tickets to see the Hollies gig and really enjoyed it. What was your mum's name and which department did she work in I might know her? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Sharon Crow   1 #7 Posted February 28, 2021 Hi we must have been there at the same time to get the free tickets but I left in 1975. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Cycleracer   10 #8 Posted March 1, 2021 It seems that a couple of you were at the same concert but can you remember Alan Clarke telling evryone to make themselves heard as the concert was recorded Live for a new album. Where is that album, was it ever published Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
nikki-red   295 #9 Posted March 1, 2021 (edited) Could it be this one, released in 1976?...  https://www.discogs.com/The-Hollies-Hollies-Live-Hits/release/5756669  Looks like it was released on vinyl in other countries but only on cassette over here.
