I just found out that Phil Everly died on Jan. 3rd.

If anyone posted this already I missed it.

The music of the Everly Brothers is acknowledged to have influenced many successful musicians, including the Beatles, who famously once referred to themselves as "the English Everly Brothers"[20] (when Paul and John went hitch-hiking down south to win a talent competition) [26] and based the vocal arrangement of "Please Please Me" upon "Cathy's Clown".[27] Keith Richards called Don Everly "one of the finest rhythm players".[28] Singer-songwriter Paul Simon who worked with the pair on his hit Graceland said in an email the day after Phil's death: "Phil and Don were the most beautiful sounding duo I ever heard. Both voices pristine and soulful. The Everlys were there at the crossroads of country and R&B. They witnessed and were part of the birth of rock and roll."[29]
