Rated 4/10
Proof that the sixties didn't start in 1960. This isn't _bad_ and I didn't hate it, but it's decidedly not my kind of thing.
Rated 6/10
Pre Beatles guitar duet. Hearing the Beatles right after was contrast- EB prob sang someone else’s lyrics
Rated 8/10
yall please just try to enjoy this like it's the soundtrack to a white-ass 50s sockhop
Rated 4/10
"Love hurts" is a song that even I recognize. The rest is a lot of folk, rock, country. Not really my thing.
Rated 6/10
They deserve their place for how influential they were. The British Invasion didn't just re-serve the US the blues and rock and roll it also re-served the Everly Brothers. Having said that I think The Beatles improved the further they got from the Everly Brothers influence.
Rated 8/10
Plenty of hum-dingers on here and only a couple of ho-hummers.
Rated 8/10
Now, I considered myself a Certified ’60s Hater, having had a rough time with other classic albums from that era (Pet Sounds, My Generation, etc.).
Somehow, The Everly Brothers totally sidestep that hate and deliver something genuinely fun. In concept it's laughably basic - all of it's just kind of dated songs about love and girls - but it manages to be really charming in its simplicity. By the end of the record I was ready to go out and buy my girl some flowers.
Very unexpected 4 from me, in a rare W for the 60s.
Standouts: It's Always You • Donna Donna
Rated 6/10
old pop music, good but way below the average old stuff on here
Rated 6/10
So jeder Sound aus den Sechzigern lässt sich gut hören, ist aber auch nicht überdurchschnittlich.
Rated 4/10
Some good songs, i think the second side was better
Rated 8/10
Solid 50s sound, nice harmonies. Don't get hung up on the sometimes shallow lyrics, just enjoy the vibe.
Rated 4/10
MEH!
Rated 4/10
Great harmonies obviously but this felt like a surprisingly long 28 minutes.

Meh. Cheesy and dull. Not for me.
Rated 4/10
Country, Blues and Jazz had a lot more interesting stuff going on in 1960, even though the seeds of something big are sown in albums like this, it's like the throat clearing before rock really got started. It's influential and important and all that, but 64 years later it's just so familiar (even never hearing this album before) that it makes very little impression. There's blues rhythms and country twang and pop harmonies and it all sounds good, but it's basically bubblegum that's been polished by hindsight.
Rated 1/10
Miserable
Rated 8/10
Gute Musik, hat Spaß gemacht. Texte leider ein Relikt ihrer Zeit und nicht mehr standesgemäß, sonst ggf. 5 Sterne
