The Hollies - Concert Review
Colchester Charter Hall, 15th March 2003 - by Mike Lait The Hollies concert at the Charter Hall Colchester on Saturday 15th March was 2 ½ hours of pure magic.
For me a definite bop down memory lane. I was reminded just how many hits the Hollies have had as they performed most of them.
The first record I ever bought was “Look Through Any Window”, this 60’s memory came flooding back as Tony Hicks started the distinctive opening guitar solo to this hit. Tony demonstrated his skills time and time again as he played 4 or 5 different guitars, banjo or sitar throughout the performance.
They opened the second half with a brand new song called “How do I survive”. The band also included 3 hits made famous by the Move and one from Mud.
A great evening which ended with the Hollies getting a standing ovation from the audience.
