Allan Clark Biography
Allan Clark is one of the most popular and richest Football Player who was born on April 5, 1942 in Borough of Stafford, England, United Kingdom.
Harold Allan Clarke and his childhood friend, Graham Nash, began singing together in Manchester while still at school. They formed The Hollies in December 1962 with Vic Steele (lead guitar) and Eric Haydock (bass guitar). In April 1963, they added Tony Hicks (replacing Steele on lead guitar) and Bobby Elliott (replacing Don Rathbone on drums). In 1966, Bernie Calvert replaced Haydock as bass guitarist. Clarke was The Hollies’ original lead singer, but also played occasional guitar and harmonica. In the UK, they enjoyed 30 chart singles, plus two further chart entries with re-releases, 17 of which made the Top 10, with two – “I’m Alive” (1965) and “He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother” (1988 re-issue) – reaching No. 1.
Clarke married Jennifer Bowstead on 24 March 1964 in Coventry. They have three children – Timothy (b. 1966), Toby (b. 1969) and Piper (b. 1972). The Hollies’ song title “Jennifer Eccles” was a combination of the names of Clarke’s wife and Graham Nash’s then-wife, Rose Eccles.

Ransford” initially for their song-writing credits, then ‘Clarke-Nash-Hicks’ from mid-1966 onwards. In 1966, Clarke, along with several Hollies bandmates, assisted in The Everly Brothers recording of their album, Two Yanks in England, which featured Everly cover versions of mostly Hollies songs co-written by Clarke.
Clarke’s own songs such as: “My Life Is Over With You”, “Goodbye Tomorrow”, “Not That Way at All”, “Marigold” (1969), “Mad Professor Blyth”, “Separated” (1970) plus “Row the Boat Together” and “Hold On” (1971) were credited solely to him. Clarke also helped Nash’s replacement, Terry Sylvester, develop as a songwriter, teaming with him to write a number of songs including “Gloria Swansong”, “Look at Life” (1969) “I Wanna Shout”, “Man Without a Heart” and “Perfect Lady Housewife” (1970).
