Love them

If the Dave Clark Five can get in, there is no excuse why the musically superior Hollies are not in. Unlike the Dave Clark Five, the Hollies sounded more original and their hits have stood up (It says a lot that the Dave Clark Five's output is now out of print and all you can get is a best of on itunes). Bus Stop, Carrie Ann, The Air I Breathe and Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress are all still played on oldies and classic rock and rightfully so. The HOF idolizes the 60s and yet like the Moody blues, has somehow forgotten one of the better bands of the era.

Ridin' along with the Hollies on a Long Hard Road

The most over looked of the original British Bands not in the Hall

Absolutely... and while they're at it they should THREE time Graham Nash.

The Hollies had hit after hit in the 60's & 70's, Let these guys in please...

The best of them all. There is no way The Hollies can remain unrecognised any longer. Please check them out on You Tube and add your voice.

Very Awesome Band & They were a major Influence on My Husbands band "Late Model Jesus" He is also in here jlcaravella1965

Put Them In The Rock N Roll Hall of fame

Here are my reasons why the Hollies deserve to be inducted into the R&RHOF. 

THEIR SOUND: For many people, the most significant thing about the Hollies is their soaring, three-part vocal harmonies. Granted, tight vocal harmonies also define 1960s bands such as the Beatles, the Searchers, and the Byrds, but more these or other bands, the Hollies popularized the sound. As a result, the Hollies' harmonies also influenced many later 1970s and 1980s MOR (middle of the road) bands such as Styx, Kansas, and Fleetwood Mac. 

THEIR MUSICIANSHIP:  Tony Hicks' lead-guitar work is reason enough for the Hollies to be inducted into the R&RHOF; is there anyone who doesn't know Hick's guitar intro to one of the greatest romantic rock songs of all time, "The Air That I Breathe"? Unlike many of his 1960s contemporaries, Hicks' guitar style developed over the years, moving from an early, gritty "beat group" sound to more adventurous guitar work on the band's "Summer Of Love" songs (Carrie Anne, King Midas In Reverse, Not That Way At All) to an understated, tasteful sound on later ballads such as "He Ain't Heavy (He's My Brother)," "I Can't Tell The Bottom From The Top" and the breathtaking "Gasoline Alley Bred."

Any list of great rock/pop drummers has to include Hollies drummer Bobby Elliott. Like contemporaries Ringo Starr and Keith Moon, Elliott developed a unique sound that propelled the band through a variety of musical styles, including "Beat Group" back beat, psychedelic, country & western, romantic ballad, and straight-out rock, the most obvious example being his work on "Long Cool Woman." 

THEIR SONG WRITING: The Hollies are one of a handful of 1960s bands who rose to the challenge of writing unique, personal songs at a time when bands such as the Searchers and Peter & Gordon were content to record "cover versions" of other people's material. The Clarke/Hicks/Nash song-writing team created some of the most upbeat, infectious pop-rock songs of the 1960s, a list that includes "On A Carousel,""Carrie Anne," and "Stop Stop Stop." In the 1970s, band members Allan Clarke, Tony Hicks, and Terry Sylvester tackled complex adult issues such as marital infidelity ("I Wanna Shout"), the challenge of young love ("Too Young To Be Married") and the emotional pain of separation ("My Life Is Over With You"). More than any other 1960s band, the music of the Hollies helped us define, explore, and characterize the complex nature of romantic love. 

THEIR SPIRIT: On a spiritual level, the music of the Hollies offers an optimistic, often joyful view of life that reminds us that love, despite the occasional complication and setback, is the source of true happiness. While bands such as the Beatles, the Kinks, and the Who were exploring darker issues of alienation, anger, and class issues, the Hollies offered listeners a more optimistic, positive view of life that lifted our spirits and showed us a world as harmonious and energetic as the band's best songs. -- Paul D. Schneider, Los Angeles

long hard road to the hall, but I hope they make it.

As the hockey guys says: He ain't heavy he's R. Brodeur

A string of hits in the '60s and '70s should have assured the Hollies of their rightful spot in the hall of fame.

who?

incredible talent...graham nash????? as important as the Spoonful, PR&Raiders,Turtles, Diamond...etc. politics & music?

Riding along to the hall of fame

What? Are these guys deaf or something? The Hollies have to be in!

Very difficult songs to sing, unusual melodies and time signature; beautifully composed, highly talented; by all means, they should have been the RRHF long ago!

the who? or should I say the wholies?

Late era British Invasion also rans with some fine hits.

One of the best of the British Invasion groups that actually had some staying power. Their apparent handicap now is precisely what was their strength is now their weakness; their work is now viewed as derivative rather than diverse.

I'm very surprised that they are not already in.

I had to look again when I saw their name on this list...I figured they had gotten in YEARS ago....WTF?

heck yes, riding along on a parasol

Deserving for all the reasons stated in the allmusic.com review quoted above. Probably too pop and too unhip for the voters. That is their loss.

Great music, A very solid group, with lots of hits, but not quite hall of fame material.

They set THE standard for Vocal harmony.

Very underrated group,both vocally and instrumentally(great guitarist[Tony Hicks]and drummer[Bobby Elliott],unique bass player[Eric Haydock]),lots of hits-should be in.

More deserving than The Byrds which are already in.

NO FN WAY

THE BEST!!! OF COURSE!!

They are one of the best bands out of the brittish invasion

Absolutely...

Heck yes!

Probably the most glaring omission of any rock group that started in the 60s.

One of the best of the 60's bands!

An Quality Influential 60's-70's band. They should be in

The Hollies deserve to be in the Hall of Fame. So many of there songs are still on the radio today, they were a big influence to music.
