#0027: The Everly Brothers - A Date With The Everly Brothers [**]

Ah what you gonna do, it's the Everly Brothers?

I tell you what you're gonna do.  You're gonna close your eyes and try to forget how much the harmonies remind you of the Louvin Brothers and wait patiently for Kathy's Clown.  It's the last track by the way and even though you've just listened to an album full of songs repeating the same formula, it still stands out as the one they got right.  Kind of like LSD.  It took Albert Hoffman 25 syntheses to get it right.  These guys took only 12 attempts to get one song right but in fairness there wasn't as much giggling or as many colours.  A date with the Everly Brothers?  It's was no acid trip and I certainly didn't feel like putting out at the end of it.

Opinions are like arseholes. They're never wrong. But I'd rather you express one than be the other :-)
