It Ain't Heavy, It's My Story: My Life in the Hollies

di Bobby Elliott (Autore)

Omnibus Press, 2026

In 1963, as the world was changing from black and white into Technicolor, a group of northern lads set up their two humble guitar amplifiers and drum kit in Abbey Road studios. The red recording light lit up and The Hollies leaped into life – and into the unknown. The five Hollies were there at the start of the Rock Revolution; a time when British bands first invaded America and conquered the world. Bobby Elliott has meticulously kept diaries since he was a child, and although many have tried to persuade him over the years, he has not collected the contents into a book – until now. From appearing on the first ever Top Of The Pops with The Rolling Stones, Dusty Springfield, The Dave Clarke Five, The Swinging Blue Jeans and The Beatles, to partying at the Ad Lib with John Lennon and Paul McCartney, Bobby’s stories are a part of rock'n'roll history. Covering his whole life, from growing up in post-war Lancashire through to sipping cocktails in the Polo Lounge at the Beverly Hills Hotel, It Ain’t Heavy, It’s My Story is a must-read for fans of The Hollies and of British rock’n’roll.
