4. For many Hollies enthusiasts, Evolution (1967) is considered the band's most accessible blend of pop-rock and psychedelia. The quintet were headed into musical territories beyond simply "moon-June-bloom" and boy-meets-girl lyrics coupled with the tightly constructed vocal harmonies that had become their calling card. Nowhere is this more evident than in the tripped-out cover art from Dutch multimedia artists Seemon Kooer, Marijke Kooer, Josje Leeger, and Barry Finch -- known collectively as "Fool". Although "Carrie-Anne" could be considered an extension of the diamonds within this album, there are clear indications of new horizons on cuts such as the Mod-ish "You Need Love," where you can find the band's pop energy at its fullest, and the cool distorted electric guitar on "Have You Ever Loved Somebody," and the wailing fretwork on the driving freakbeat rocker "Then the Heartaches Begin." Graham Nash (guitar/vocals), Allan Clarke (guitar/vocals), Tony Hicks (guitar/dulcimer/vocals), Bobby Elliott (drums), and new recruit Bernie Calvert (bass/vocals) -- who replaced original member Eric Haydock in the spring of 1966 -- were also taking different approaches and 'turning on' in their writing and arranging, as heard on the trippy "Headed for a Fall." On this tune, you hear Eastern tinges and most prominent is the unusual six-eight time signature, coupled with Hicks' inversion of the unmistakable banjo stringed effects, which is similar to the sound he conjured up on the hit "Stop, Stop, Stop." However, somewhat more atypical of the Nash-era band are the light and limber acoustic and uptempo "Stop Right There," or the baroque "Ye Olde Toffee Shoppe." The processed vocals of "Lullaby to Tim" should make you smile every time you hear the song. "Water on the Brain" has more of the typical whimsy, and "When Your Light Turned on" is once again as powerful as pop could be in the '60s. There were earlier versions of "Have You Ever Loved Somebody" bringing some new colour by the fuzz guitar. Evolution is clearly an album to enjoy. Often perfectly-crafted, feeling like a positive quality: this is wild, pulsating, living stuff !
