![]() In 1969 I recorded The Graham Gouldman Thing which is still one of my favourite albums. Also one of my first bands is the Mockingbirds which were very important to me. I suppose the most important one was having my first hit with the Yardbirds having written ‘For Your Love’ for them in 1965. GRAHAM GOULDMAN : I have so many great memories. I found it a very creative time but I’m very glad to be back on the road now.Ī: At first tell us please, about your best memories from the past until today, with the Mockingbirds, about your debut solo album in the year 1968 ΄΄ The Graham Gouldman Thing ΄΄ and with 10cc. I spent the pandemic writing new songs and recording. We are in the middle of a Heart Full Of Songs tour which is an acoustic show that I do featuring songs that I’ve written or co-written from over six decades. GRAHAM GOULDMAN : I’m at home in London at the moment. The current 10cc line-up features Gouldman (bass, guitar, vocals), Rick Fenn (lead guitar, bass, vocals), Paul Burgess (drums, percussion) – both of whom have been with the band since the early years – Keith Hayman (keyboards, guitars, bass, vocals) and Iain Hornal (vocals, percussion, guitar, keyboards).Ī: Hello Graham from Athens Greece!

The song, For Your Love, became a huge hit for The Yardbirds. Graham played with various Manchester bands before forming in the year 1965 The Mockingbirds (with Kevin Godley on drums), and when the record label Columbia rejected Graham’s first single composition for the band, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. He received early encouragement to develop his musical talent from his mother Betty and father Hymie, who also contributed with suggested lyrics and song titles. Graham was given his first guitar at the age of 11 and started playing with local bands at 15. Graham Gouldman is One of the Greatest Songwriters in the world with many hits and lovely songs!
