Everly Brothers, Walk Right Back.

[@glenncharles265]

Every modern rock group from the Stones and Beatles to the Bee Gees and the Eagles learned how to sing and write songs with great harmonies from these guys. All of them have said they listened to the Everly Brothers when they were young. Every song they sang had that great harmony. Love them.

[@DelilahDeWylde]

Very true. Graham Nash talks about them a lot in his book

[@shizueleighhicks6174]

Loved listening to Keith Richards on recent. PBS documentary on the. Everly Brothers. Keith’s memories of their talent, kindness and professional generosity was extremely moving.

Few things in life are better than an Everly brothers song.

Several childhood friends and I used to listen to the music of the Everly Brothers way back in our elementary-school age in the Philippines. (We’re all are in our seventies now.) Constantly listened to them on a cousin’s transistor radio. We loved their music, and still do. My friends still live in the Philippines and I have migrated to the States. Since Don’s passing, I have been receiving online messages from my surviving friends. Don’s passing has left us all feeling so sad. The brothers have left us, but their music lives on - to us at least

In '85, these guys were nearly 50 with decades of aging, smoking, drinking and drugging behind them but their voices are still clear and blended like angels.

[@judiebistline3464]

They got into drugs etc because of all the stress of being together 24/7. I can't imagine being w my bro 24/7. They needed a break and were forced into it. Thanks be to God they found each other again.

[@johnmcdyer7297]

@@judiebistline3464 bull shit

[@carolfreeman9773]

Part of that was how they used their voices. Natural vocal production, the way traditional music is sung. They grew up with traditional singing, and I believe that was a great influence on them.

[@RickB1792]

Those boys were incredible singers in their day.

[@v-g-z3689]

One thing that surprises my about them, although they didn´t live the healthiest of lives the kept their voices right up to their last convert in 2005!

[@cak8132]

I love this slightly slower version of “Walk Right Back”. It’s almost as if Don and Phil harmonize telepathically. Musical perfection. And speaking of perfection, these guys definitely inherited the great hair genes.

[@toygiants8748]

They had the "Hair of the Gods".

‘Harmonise telepathically’. I like that. That’s spot on. It’s incredible.

Everly Brothers were solid harmony from their first cut until their last. They couldn't be any closer in harmony . SOLID.

Gone but never will be forgotten. Really brings back memories.

Never will be another duo like these men!!! LOVE THEM!

[@terrafirma91]

Approximately 24 years after they first released this song, and it still sounds great. They sound great. Certain compositions are timeless. They're classic.

[@jts059]

How could you not like this. R.I.P. Phil.

[@zombywoof7583]

I was lucky see the Everlys in Houston in '87. I sat in the second row and they were on a revolving round stage, surrounded by the audience. I've seen some good shows over the years but these guys were THE best, no question. This tops seeing McCartney twice and the Beatles are my favorite band, but this concert truly was thrilling.

I would never have thought the song's performance could ever be improved, but this slight slowing takes it to another level I didn't think was possible.

[@patricking6512]

There's nobody like The Everly Bros.!

[@freeguy77]

Is it any wonder why The Beatles were so inspired by the terrific harmony from The Everly Brothers? And there were also the late, great Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Elvis, and there was the late, great Buddy Holly & The Crickets that motivated The Beatles to eventually become R&R immortals, even in imitating their insect name (Beetles), but spelling it in regards to music. The world of pop music owe these greats a huge debt of gratitude for some of the greatest music ever written or performed in the past 60 years.

[@megasuggs]

Thanks Phoebus, you are quite right Walk Right Back was written by Sonny Curtis. The reason the Everlys left out the second verse is that they were under pressure to go into the studio, so Sonny gave them the song unfinished, by the time he came back to them with the other verse the recording was already in the can. ( have put a reply on rickee's thread)

[@Marcel_Audubon]

wow Phil's voice sounds lower than Don's here ... and he's dropped that famous high harmony on "don't send it" - so interesting! The Everlys were the best. RIP Phil, you're not forgotten here

[@megasuggs]

They were singing at Her Majesty's Theatre in London in November 1985.
