'He Ain''t Heavy, He''s My Brother'' by The Hollies Limited Edition Prints of Original Painting 50s 'Afterglow of Your Love’ wasIn the 1960s when The Hollies were short of songs, guitarist Tony Hicks took to rooting around publishers in Denmark Street looking for something suitable. One afternoon he was played a demo by the writers Bobby Scott and Bob Russell. It sounded like a 45rpm record played at 33rpm, the singer was slurring, like he was drunk.
