    I'm a 77 year old retired lorry driver. I must admit to shedding a tear or two when first of all Warren Zevon died, then Phil Everly and finally Don. It's tough to imagine them all gone. Margaret Everly, the boys mother lived for an amazing 102 years.

    It's seems to be an old, recurring story we hear where some talented artist(s) from a working class background gets chewed up and spat out by the music business 'machine'. Some of them do not survive, tragically. Some are never the same again. Success seems to carry a heavy price for them - but never for the business men making the money off of their talent.

    The Everly Brothers are my favorite Musicians and singers from the early days of Rock n Roll. I Loved their harmonies and their songs. I saw them perform at the Albert Hall on TV when they decided to do a come back. Although Phil was a heavy smoker, he was still right on key singing the harmonies with Don during that Tour. Still one of my favorites!

    The Everly Bros. were the inspiration for the Warren Zevon classic "Werewolves of London." At the time, Warren was the Everly's bandleader and Waddy Wachtel was the guitarist in that band. One of the brothers suggested that Warren write a dance song called "Do the Werewolf." Zevon mentioned the project when Waddy stopped by his hotel room and Waddy said "You mean...Awooo?" WZ answered in the affirmative and the rest is history. From being seen with a Chinese menu to the seducing of "little old ladies" to perfect hair...Lon Chaney and Lon Chaney, jr. were Phil and Don. Draw blood.

The Everly Brothers were in the Marine Corps Reserve. The DI S also told us they had Doris Day's son for basic training.

They never do it during a concert because it's too long (over 5 minutes) and it really pushes Phil to the limit. But it's neat. Have you ever heard him sing backup on "On Top of the World"?

    So Sad was a song by the Everly brothers but not their version. The superior version is by Dillard and Clark. Gene Clark sings it as it was meant to be heard: a tragedy of good love gone bad. A great song as performed by Clark (one of the original members of the Byrds). He sang it as a sad ballad, the way the Everly's should have recorded it originally. The lyrics are brilliant!!!
