12 comments so far (post your own)The Everly Brothers are not only among the most important and greatest early rock n' roll stars, but also some of the most influential singers of any era. Brothers Phil and Don transformed the sounds of Appalachian folk music, bluegrass and country into a harmonizing form of rock n' roll. Posted by Andrew on Tuesday, 06/4/2013 @ 22:41pm |
RIP, Phil Everly Posted by Aaron O'Donnell on Friday, 01/3/2014 @ 22:46pm |
Oh man. A real loss to the music world. He and Don are true greats. We'll miss the amazing harmonies. Posted by Philip on Friday, 01/3/2014 @ 23:14pm |
Bye, bye, Phil (acoustic guitar riffs inserted here) Posted by Jason Voigt on Saturday, 01/4/2014 @ 14:54pm |
Rest in peace, Phil. Your soulful voice and harmonies will be greatly missed. Posted by Andrew on Saturday, 01/4/2014 @ 18:48pm |
Erin Everly, daughter of Don Everly, was the inspiration for two Guns 'N Roses songs: "Sweet Child O' Mine and "Patience" Posted by Aaron O'Donnell on Sunday, 01/5/2014 @ 16:39pm |
The first brother duo in rock n' roll, The Everly Brothers were not only among the most important and finest rock and roll singers of the 50s, but also among the most influential rockers of any musical era afterwards and set unmatched standards for close, two-part harmonies.

Several errors in the above article, most notably the claim that the brothers continued to tour until 2014. Phil's emphysema ended the run in 2005. His voice was deeper than Don's at that point, and Don wouldn't lower the chords for him. Posted by Sam on Monday, 11/24/2014 @ 22:51pm |
Thanks for that fact, Sam. I'll try to be more sport-on about the information that I post on this site. Posted by Andrew on Tuesday, 11/25/2014 @ 19:19pm |
