  By January 1974, The Hollies were enjoying a successful phase of their career, characterized by a rich legacy of hit songs. Before the live recording of "The Air That I Breathe," the band had released their album "Hollies" in 1974, which included several notable tracks, showcasing their enduring popularity in the UK and beyond. The song "The Air That I Breathe," although written by Albert Hammond and Mike Hazlewood, became a signature piece for the band, leading to its status as one of their defining hits. This period marked a pivotal moment for The Hollies as they navigated changes in musical styles and the music industry. Interestingly, the song's haunting melody and themes resonated deeply with audiences, further solidifying their reputation. Moreover, the band had reunited with their original lineup for this era, bringing a sense of nostalgia and authenticity to their performances, as evidenced in the 1974 recording featured in the video.
