The Hollies

"Carrie Anne" is the only hit on this forgotten gem, which with no apparent effort or self-consciousness- you barely notice the French horn here and violin there - achieves the adolescent effervescence and lovelorn sentiment that indie-pop adepts of the Elephant 6 ilk spend years laboring after. Signature tracks: "Ye Olde Toffee Shoppe," which concerns candy and features a harpsichord, and "Games We Play," which concerns teen sex and features a knowing grin.
