About this album
I Wasn't Born Yesterday shows Allan Clarke leaning into polished late-70s pop rock, combining strong melodies with the smooth AOR sound of the period. Best known as the lead voice of The Hollies, Clarke brought an immediately recognisable tone and a seasoned songwriter’s feel to this 1978 solo album. The title track and songs such as “Light Of My Smiles” and “I’m Betting My Life On You” reflect a balance of radio-friendly hooks and reflective material, giving the record both commercial shape and personal character. For listeners drawn to Clarke’s work beyond The Hollies, it stands as a confident solo statement from one of British pop’s most distinctive voices.
