I remember when I was five or six years old and my grandfather would play the Everly Bothers and Connie Francis in the afternoons. Brings back sweet memories.
So glad they got back together again. Hope you enjoyed the concert as much as I did. Couldn't believe how well they still harmonised. I loved them singing Lucille. Wish they were still touring. Can't name a favourite as I loved them all.
Everly Brothers are brilliant. I've been lucky enough to enjoy their music since the 50's. Did anyone see the reunion concert they did in the Albert Hall London. It was out of this world. !!!!!!!!!
@janbrow60 Did I see them, I was in the second row. We (the audience) and the Everlys were scared of what was to come but as you say it was out of this world. If you listen to the LP you can hear my nervous laugh when Don says "wounder if it still works? The real magic of that evening was when they sat on the stools and just sang the songs their Daddy taught them; absolutely wonderful. Thank goodness for youtube so we can see and hear again the best there ever was, the Everly Brothers!

The Everly Brothers have just got to be the best Duo I have ever heard, There songs have special meanings to me especially Let it be me, Long live Rock and Roll
@themrjoemax :No, You really dont It. Its known that they were really more famous with the 50s look than they were with the 60s look. they changed because they wanted to keep up with the times.
@07chrisanne i totally agree there. I was born in 87 but I prefer this music to any of the new stuff. Today if u cant f and blind then they aint bothered. Wud love to c the 'modern' artists try to sing this stuff. They wud FAIL!
Look under the video window and you will see a button that says "SAVE TO" ...click on it and click on "FAVORITES" that will put trhis video into your favorites.
Did anyone else see him break a string? He took it off and quit playing his guitar and threw the string on the stage. He pretended to play the last part but still a great performance Huh?
@mrface19 Really, so when Buddy Guy rips his broken strings off or changes a whole guitar mid-song, he's unprofessional? Better report these fellas to the rock and roll HR department. That must be what you do for a living. HR departments--wrecking innovation and destroying creativity at a corporation near you.
@stableshadow Oh dear, such a pillock you are. If i break a string (it happens a lot), i play on as best i can until the end of the song then switch guitars, it's pretty simple. And please do tell... i'm curious... how does somebody on YouTube opining that something looks unprofessional mean that i am wrecking and destroying creativity? What's creative about breaking a fucking string? Get real.
@mrface19 But at the end of the day, they're the Everly Brothers and you're just some frustrated loser musician trying to make rules about something for which there are and should be no rules. Again, I ask you, is Buddy Guy unprofessional? He's one of the best blues guitarists in the world, and he always makes a big show about his broken strings. That's my point about creativity. When Buddy Guy breaks a string, he turns it into an exciting piece of showmanship.
@stableshadow Hahaha.. what a complete prick you are, sir. I love people that make assertions about people's lives without knowing a single thing about them. Frustrated? No. A loser? Far from it. Musician? Yes, and a fairly popular one locally. If anyone here is frustrated, it seems to be you, fucknut.
There's a clear difference between Buddy Guy breaking a string and using it for showmanship and an Everly Brother breaking one and looking like an amateur.
@mrface19 And what morons like you don't understand--which is why you play in your basement--is that you need to be a showman as much as a technically sound musician. Dickface. Don't go pontificating on what is professional when you are obviously such a fucking amateur.
2. I know you need to be a showman.. i am one. And a decent musician to boot.
3. There's a difference between being a showman and looking amateurish.
4. If you can't recognise the difference in Point 3, you need to shut the fuck up right now.
Technically i am an amateur, yes. Simply because i have a full time job at present, but i gig regularly. So you were right on one point, i hope you can take solace in that.
After Phil removed the broken string from his guitar, I wish he had thrown it across the stage to a waiting tech. to restring it. This is something he always did during their concerts... it was great to see and you always hoped the tech would catch it, and he did, except for one night when the guitar hit the floor!
I listened to their songs when I was a very little girl as these group was one of my dads favorite. As yrs. went by, I somehow have forgotten but now, my dad has passed away 3 yrs. ago and the songs from the Everly brothers has made the memories of my dad alive in my heart... Thanks Everly brothers...
Just wish to be back at this time of my live agani if only for one more day. I know that will never happen, but I'm sure I'm not the only one wishing for it . Time goes by too fast.
@UglySean I'm afraid not, they played their last concert together on November 29th 2005 at Ipswich in England, (I was lucky enough to have been there) and since then have only done a few odd individual appearances, basically, they have retired.
@megasuggs Thanks for the information. At least they went out the way they came in so many years ago, sounding fantastic. I made the unfortunate observation of cuts from a Neil Diamond CD a few years back.
He isn't so lucky. Die hard fans will no doubt disagree, but from my POV his voice just isn't what it used to be.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
On my guitar training book it has this song but I really don't like this song it horrible but i'm gonna rate it 3 stars for the guitar playing not the song bye bye and have a good day
I love the Everly Brothers and I have been in the entertainment business for over 30 years. Someone needs to tell them that people want to hear the hits the way they were done, not their latest version because they are bored with the old one!
This song is too American for any other country except America...........did you notice that the English audience from England didn't applause at the outset of this song???
Like millions, I am a big fan of the Brothers. Question: In this 1985 performance, does Phil have a broken string or other problem? Granted, he's not playing guitar amplified, but in 3rd chorus he seems to be pulling a broken string. After that, he plays very little. Just curious.
Yes, well spotted, it has been commented that in "Let it be me" from the same performance, that Phil's guitar is just "furniture" as he doesn't play it at all, the reason of course is the broken string.
...is this from their appearance on 'Live From Her Majestys'...?...I only ask because I remember watching them on it, then on GMTV the next morning Phil said he'd broken a string....amazing what rubbish you remember after 25 years...
Yes, Judplay... Phil broke a string & is pulling it off the guitar. Usually during full concerts they have two extra guitars behind them, just for moments like this when a string breaks. And, Phil, who breaks strings often, would throw his guitar across the stage to waiting hands of a tech. who would restring it. It was always a highlight to see him toss that guitar high in the air & hope those waiting hands caught it. Phil would make a joke about it, but one night he missed & it hit the floor!
Phil is a true professional.. he removed the string without looking down or missing a beat! A comment about not being plugged in.. fsigmon is 100% right! Phil plays guitar every bit as well as Don, but Don always had to be first, #1 in everything. Phil's roll was always to play backup, hence no lead singing & very few of his songs made their albums. They always disagreed, even in the early years & it just got worse! The breakup, inevitable, but it finally gave us Phil's beautiful solo voice!
I saw these guys in Los Angeles a few years ago, and they brought the house down. There were some "old jokes" going around, but no young people could perform like them!
when the break finally came, as it was bound to because i read the book and all phil had to say about don were words of praise. don called phil about getting back to gether not the other way around and you could feel the strain. the fact is phil was a better brother. the happiest that i have ever seen don was when they got back together.phils music is hard to find and they are collectors items. thats irony for you. fsigmon
These guitars are the 'Ike Everly' model co-designed by Phil Everly and crafted by Robert A Steinegger from Portland Oregon.Don has one which contains over one pound of gold fittings,a 50th birthday present from Phil.
Don is the major guitarist of the Everlys, it is his guitar you hear on all the early stuff, Phil plays, but not to Don's standard, so they let the sound of his guitar be picked up by the microphone. Their father Ike was a brilliant guitarist, I saw him perform once.
you know all don ever want to be was a star by himself, he never meant for phil to ever be in the spotlight so he made a big mistake when they took the johnny cash show so me cash could be off for the summer. i think don thought everything would be the same but the producers divided them up and had them both doing solos by themselves as well as letting phil make introductions. i
Is it from the ARENA documentry. It is a shame not more footage of the practice for the reunion concert was included. Met Pete and Albert a few times, great guys always have time after the show. I got them to sign my IKES BOYS book.
I met Pete and Albert backstage at a Buddy Holly tribute in Belfast organised by Dave Edmunds, they even let all the fans into the dressing room backstage. I seen the Kentucky, it is from the Arena documentry. It is a shame longer clips of the practice for the Reunion concert where not included in the programme.
albert lee is so talented, but i wish he would look up a little more so we can see his face. maybe it just when you do see him smile he looks like a sweet angel.fsigmon
Am i right in saying that this is one of the few tours that Pete Wingfield did not play on. I think the keyboard player is Ian Mclaghlan, as i seen them on this tour in Belfast. Pat Alger is also on guitar with Albert.
Yes I think you are right there, Pete is a great keyboard player and a really nice friendly guy, he put a plate of sandwitchs on the ground in the car park to free his hands to sign autographs, btw have you seen my latest "Kentucky"
I have stood next to both of them, I am 177cm they are both a bit shorter than me, I guess about 170cm or 5'6", I could be wrong but thats how I remember it, it was 10 years ago.
since you know about cm's may you could tell me in inches how big is 4mm or 4 mmm? for some reason i just can't figure what a lbs is in american dollars or the whole metric system. iwas bidding on ebay one time and i failed to see a lb sigh all i saw was 9.44. we were unfornately screaming across the atlantic via e-mail. he threaten to send my check back wrapped on a brick.
i thought thy were so much taller, it just hard to tell people sizes. johnny cash must be about 6 ft. because he seem taller than either of them. thanks for answering. you have great videos.
I am fully awaer who played what and who played when, thanks!. this was a reply to eb 84 who wrote....Am i right in saying that this is one of the few tours that Pete Wingfield did not play on. I think the keyboard player is Ian Mclaghlan, as i seen them on this tour in Belfast. Pat Alger is also on guitar with Albert.
Superb!! Strange how they made no tv appearances to promote the 2005 tour. Just another thought, wouldnt it be great to have one of those An Audience with...tv shows were famous people get to question and sing with them!!

I saw these guys in Los Angeles a few years ago, and they brought the house down. There were some "old jokes" going around, but no young people could perform like them!

when the break finally came, as it was bound to because i read the book and all phil had to say about don were words of praise. don called phil about getting back to gether not the other way around and you could feel the strain. the fact is phil was a better brother. the happiest that i have ever seen don was when they got back together.phils music is hard to find and they are collectors items. thats irony for you. fsigmon

These guitars are the 'Ike Everly' model co-designed by Phil Everly and crafted by Robert A Steinegger from Portland Oregon.Don has one which contains over one pound of gold fittings,a 50th birthday present from Phil.

I've noticed this before (in the "Reunion" DVD). How come Don's Gibson is plugged in and Phil's isn't?
rewood3 5 years ago
Don is the major guitarist of the Everlys, it is his guitar you hear on all the early stuff, Phil plays, but not to Don's standard, so they let the sound of his guitar be picked up by the microphone. Their father Ike was a brilliant guitarist, I saw him perform once.
megasuggs 5 years ago
you know all don ever want to be was a star by himself, he never meant for phil to ever be in the spotlight so he made a big mistake when they took the johnny cash show so me cash could be off for the summer. i think don thought everything would be the same but the producers divided them up and had them both doing solos by themselves as well as letting phil make introductions. i
things went down hill after that. another comment

Is it from the ARENA documentry. It is a shame not more footage of the practice for the reunion concert was included. Met Pete and Albert a few times, great guys always have time after the show. I got them to sign my IKES BOYS book.

I met Pete and Albert backstage at a Buddy Holly tribute in Belfast organised by Dave Edmunds, they even let all the fans into the dressing room backstage. I seen the Kentucky, it is from the Arena documentry. It is a shame longer clips of the practice for the Reunion concert where not included in the programme.

albert lee is so talented, but i wish he would look up a little more so we can see his face. maybe it just when you do see him smile he looks like a sweet angel.fsigmon

Am i right in saying that this is one of the few tours that Pete Wingfield did not play on. I think the keyboard player is Ian Mclaghlan, as i seen them on this tour in Belfast. Pat Alger is also on guitar with Albert.
EB84 5 years ago
Yes I think you are right there, Pete is a great keyboard player and a really nice friendly guy, he put a plate of sandwitchs on the ground in the car park to free his hands to sign autographs, btw have you seen my latest "Kentucky"

since you have seen these guys how tall are they. it is hard to tell
fsigmon 4 years ago
I have stood next to both of them, I am 177cm they are both a bit shorter than me, I guess about 170cm or 5'6", I could be wrong but thats how I remember it, it was 10 years ago.
megasuggs 4 years ago
since you know about cm's may you could tell me in inches how big is 4mm or 4 mmm? for some reason i just can't figure what a lbs is in american dollars or the whole metric system. iwas bidding on ebay one time and i failed to see a lb sigh all i saw was 9.44. we were unfornately screaming across the atlantic via e-mail. he threaten to send my check back wrapped on a brick.
fsigmon 4 years ago
4mm is equal to 5/32 of an inch, 4 cm is just over one and a half inches 1.574" to be exact.
A UK pound (£ not lb that is a pound in weight) is equal to $2.00 , 2 US dollars.
In weight 1 KG is equal to 2.2 lbs.

i thought thy were so much taller, it just hard to tell people sizes. johnny cash must be about 6 ft. because he seem taller than either of them. thanks for answering. you have great videos.

Superb!! Strange how they made no tv appearances to promote the 2005 tour. Just another thought, wouldnt it be great to have one of those An Audience with...tv shows were famous people get to question and sing with them!!
