The Hollies in United States

The Hollies were one of the last of the major British Invasion groups to have significant chart success in the United States. Their first single was not issued in the US and it was not until "Look Through Any Window" that the band reached the Top 30. Many of their other singles that had been hits in the UK, including "I'm Alive", "Yes I Will" and "We're Through" were virtually ignored in the US. From 1965 until they signed to Epic in 1967, the band had their most concentrated success in the US. In 1966 "Bus Stop" reached No.5 in the USA, while their own song "Stop Stop Stop" made no.7, After the initial Epic single "Carrie-Anne" reached #9, the band records continued to sell poorly in the US, with the exception of "He Ain't Heavy He's My Brother" (no.7), "Long Cool Woman" (no.2) and "The Air That I Breathe"(no.6).
