Jennifer Eccles is a 1968 single by The Hollies. It was released with the B-side Open Up Your Eyes on the Parlophone label, Catalogue number R5680. The song reached #7 on the UK singles chart in March 1968. Around the same time, it was released in the US with a different B-side, Try It, and reached #40 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song was covered in 1995 by Mark Oliver Everett. It was originally released on the Hollies cover album Sing Hollies in Reverse under his solo moniker, E, before his first release with the band Eels. It was later used as a B-side for Eels 2001 single, Souljacker part I and included on Eels 2008 compilation album, Useless Trinkets: B-Sides, Soundtracks, Rarities and Unreleased 1996–2006. Jennifer Eccles (who had terrible freckles) also features in the song Lily the Pink by The Scaffold; the reference is an in-joke, as Graham Nash, who had by now left The Hollies, sang backing vocals on this recording.
