The Hollies: Butterfly 1967


This was the second Hollies album of 1967 and the last to feature Graham Nash until an utterly forgotten reunion in 1983. Hollies fans of the Nash/Clark/Hicks songwriting team consider this to be their last good record. "Dear Eloise" was a hit in the U.S. but technically, the band did not release any singles for it. I prefer "Evolution" of the two, but this one's more 'out there', featuring sophisticated orchestral parts and marks the end of their LSD inspired chapter.
