Moments Worth Waiting For
The transition from the iconic drum pattern of Peggy Sue into the Hollies' signature wall of vocal harmonies.
The delicate, bell-like guitar tones on Everyday that modernize the original's celesta part.
The way the three-part harmony swells during the chorus of Heartbeat, adding a lushness Holly never lived to record.
