One of their greatest accolades was an article published in The Los Angeles Times which referred to the Hollies performance in 2010 at their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame :--
“Those pristine harmonies aren’t easy to pull off ,and their legacy might have been better honoured by THE BERRIES ,a UK -based Hollies Tribute Act “ Randy Lewis ,LA Times ,March 16 ,2010.
