Bye Bye Love

Phil (left) and Don (right) Everly

On Friday, January 3, 2014, one half of one of the most beloved duos passed away. Phil Everly, born January 19, 1939, along with his older brother Don created beautiful and moving harmonies that have continued to influence musicians to this day.

Their career started in the mid 1950s just when rock and roll was starting out. They, along with artists such as Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly and many others paved the way.

The influence of their music can still be felt in many of today's musicians. And just recently Norah Jones and Green Day's Billie Jo Armstrong made a record of covers of Everly Brothers songs called Foreverly.
