Goodbye to one of the greatest influences of popular music over thd last 50 years. The Everly brothers acknowledged by Lennon and McCartney, Simon and Garfunkel and many others since as their leading lights. R.I.P. Phil.
RIP saw them do a couple of numbers as guests of simon and garfunkel a few years ago in Hyde park. Didn't post I'm the "best harmonies" thread but IMO there are very few songs that can better their "ebony eyes"

Far too young (mid 40's) to have known of The Everly Brothers at their peak but know of their substantial influence on music. Pure, raw, natural musical talent.
The 1983 reunion show they did at the Albert Hall was/is sheer class. They have earned their right to sit at the top table as true legends of popular music, no question. Phil Everly can be very proud of what he's left behind. My thoughts are for his brother.....can't imagine how painful it must be to lose half of your identity, however old you may be.

Very sad they were excellent at what they did.
RIP Phil.
Grew up listening to them and I think saw them with my parents circa 82.
Sad.
Loved the Everley's music, big influence on many acts that followed.
