Friday Music

This song was written by Graham Nash during a concert performance with Tom Jones.  Band members Tony Hicks and Allan Clarke wrote some of the lyrics.  It was recorded in the spring of 1967 at Abbey Road Studios.  In later years Nash revealed that he had composed the tune for Marianne Faithfull but was too shy to use her real name.  The studio recording I remember incorporated the use of steel drums which are conspicuously absent in this live version. 

Carrie Anne by The Hollies……
