The Everley Bros., one of which just passed a

some truly phenomenal work before you were a gleam in Daddies eye. I
am sure you can find some poorly recorded videos on youtube. They
even had a tv show, till they got into a spat, live on tv, and one of
them walked off the set, and they never sang together again. And the
planet is musically poorer because of it.
Come now, the reunion was in 1983, get with the times already ;)

I knew there had been a re-union of sorts, but no more of their close
harmony was published that I am aware of. More of it would, IMO, sell well
even today. I of course know well that voices are fragile things, and by
1983, its possible the "magic" was gone. I quit our church choir about 10
years back when I no longer had the control to do the double-bass part my
voice is best at since about 1947. I was usually an octave below the bass
line in the hymnals. And I could have fun back in the day drowning out the
bass fellow of the Oakridge Boys when they were doing Elvira too. :)
Cheers, Gene

I've enjoyed just about as much of this as I can stand.
