Phil Everly of the Everly Brothers passes away at 74



Phil Everly, of the Everly Brothers, passed away today at the age of 74 due to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

The Everly Brothers, Phil and Don, whose tight harmonies were unmistakable and unforgettable, profoundly influenced everyone from the Beatles to the Beach Boys to the Byrds, to Simon and Garfunklel as well as countless other rock, folk and country singers, starting in the late 1950s.

A generation of teens grew up with their high, clarion voices blasting from car radios on Wake Up Little Susie, Bye Bye Love, Cathy's Clown and All I Have To Do Is Dream.
