Everly Brothers Collection Vol.1, The (Love Hurts) - Everly Brothers (The)

Advantages: Fabulous production, a real mix of styles
Disadvantages: None!

...Well it's another year and another release for the legends that are the Chemical Brothers. The Chemical Brothers are two guys called Tom and Ed; the pair met while at university in Manchester in the late eighties. At this time a revolution was going on, a musical revolution. These days were the days of the legendary Manchester club The Hacienda. Dance music was really beginning to take off in all it's forms wether it be the vocal, funky house from America or acid house, hardcore or techno. Tom and Ed fell in love with this emerging scene.

Advantages: finally put his lyrics to good beats
Disadvantages: songs should have made proper retail albums

Advantages: Great music, Great sound

..." appeared on this album along with many more great tunes. This album was my first introduction to the Everly Brothers and i have never looked back. I have yet to find an artist(s) that i like better. In 1973 they parted and both persued solo careers.Before their split they relesed an album called " Take of the seventies" which included great covers such as "Lay Lady Lay" (Bob Dylan) & "The Air That I Breath" (The Hollies) In 1983 they got back together again for the first time in 10 years when they held their reunion concert. They released a new single "On The Wings Of A Nightingale" whith which they restarted their Duet career. Over the years i have been lucky to hear all angle of the Everlys music and if your a fan you will all ready appreciate their entire collection and if not you will only know the recordings that you would hear...
