Thanks for the information Sue. Not a recording then.

Regarding your listing of 'The Hollies (one of them)' this is what Graham Nash says in his book 'Wild Tales':

'A tribute album.......was being proposed by MCA Records and the Hollies were asked to take part....The Hollies had a copy of Buddy's original two-track tape transferred to digital, rearranged the song, and added the instruments to make a new track. I then flew to England to record the added vocals....'.

So it looks as if they were all involved.

Hope this helps.

Mike
