This came out on Warner Brothers 5501 in 1961. This was the Plus 2 oldies series, where you get two new songs and excerpts of two previous hits on this one, the new songs were Muskrat and Don't Blame Me, the oldies were Lucille and Walk Right Back; in the U.K., Muskrat was also released as a single WB 50. I Hope You Like It,. Please feel free to comment.

  • After establishing themselves on Cadence since 1957, the Brothers signed on to Warners in 1960. Their recording career was interrupted the following year, however, when Don & Phil decided to join the Marine Corps.

    The Everlys have made an impact on several performers. You can hear their obvious vocal influence when you listen to Buddy Holly, The Beatles, The Hollies, The Searchers, The Byrds or Simon & Garfunel for starters.

  • I have "Muskrat" on the LP "The Golden Hits of The Everly Brothers", but only the 45 has that beautiful little flute solo at the end. Until I heard this again since 1961, I wasn't sure if I had dreamt it, but there it is. Thanks for uploading this Everly Bros. classic!

  • Good old song,,RWB

  • Naturally, this is an adaption of an old bluegrass song. For an authentic version of the original, check Frank Wakefield & Red Allen's version from "The Kitchen Tapes" on Acoustic Disc.

  • There is a fantastic version of Muskrat by Wilko Johnson on the Watch Out! album.

    Cracking little tune!!

  • @therickynelson1 Thanks for commenting, I was not aware they were Marines, great information!

  • @01musicfan Right on man, glad I checked my mail. Did you know that DON AND PHIL were U.S. Marines? Stay cool and happy man. The ricky nelson, Sgt. Ronald J. Campbell, U.S. Army Ret.
