In January of 1974, the Hollies released their hit The Air That I Breathe, which reached #2 in the United Kingdom and #6 in the United States. The English rock band was formed in 1962 in Manchester, England by boyhood friends Allan Clarke and Graham Nash. Nash left the group in 1968 to form Crosby, Stills & Nash. Graham Nash rejoined the group for a brief period in 1981 to record a new album. The Hollies were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2010, while Crosby, Stills & Nash were inducted in 1997.
