 Wasn't the Hollies playin on that version too as many of the cuts on 2
 Yanks in UK were Hollies tunes? The LP was reissued by Edsel in the 80s.
 It's a neat one.

Yeah , it is the Hollies;    "2 Yanks in London" is one of my all time faves.
Also amazing are "gone gone gone" and  "In our image" A bit of information on
these lps. The versions of  2 yanks in london, & in our image vary pending on
whether you have a mono or stereo version.
Off hand, I can't recall which is which,(I'm at work at can't check)
buttttttt, the differences are striking. I think it's the mono version that is
the more difficult to find but it sounds like a complete different and better
take. ie more backing vocals, instruments in arrangements that just aren't
there or hidden in the other version...etc.
    If you've got 'em, check your copy, I will post the differences when I
compare them at home and post it for those who are interested.     Cheers Tony
