Walt Whitman High School 1967 Yearbook (Bethesda, MD) - Full Access

Hollies Rock Through Pop Repertoire Loose-lipped Tony Hicks was a big favorite witl! the crowd at the Senior cia concert. Representatives of the British pop music invasion and pop art came together at Whitman as the Hollies ser– enaded a familiar yellow sign borrowed from the D.C. Transit. Singing their biggest hit, "Bus Stop," the popular vocal group entertained an audience of several thousand at the annual Senior Class Concert in October. In the early part of the show, the electric guitars and steady drum beat of the Fraggies rocked the fieldhouse walls. Soul music lovers then found a soul brother in Stanley Burley, whose spirited gyrations to the background music of the Dynamics and the vocal accompaniment of the Lynettes warmed up the audience for the featured artists from England. Climaxing the program, the Hollies rocked through a repertoire with samples of the best from the folk, soul, and rock and roll fields of popular music. Oblivious to Lhe clash of his paisley tie with the op art back– ground, Bobby Elliott provides the drumbeat for the Hollies. Detroit's fotown ound in pop mu ic comes to Whitman as the Lynette vocalize in the upremes tradition.
