Recorded between 1960 & 1969. Includes liner notes by Colin Escott.
For those unfamiliar with the rich legacy of the Everly Brothers, this is the definitive compilation, chronicling their fertile '60s Warner Bros period. The Everly's patented close-harmony sound was unique in pop, but not without precedent in American music. It came from other fraternal duos, those that hailed from the bluegrass world, like the Delmore Brothers and the Louvin Brothers. The innovation came when they took that sound and applied to state-of-the-art rock/pop.
In their Warners work, the Everlys were moving beyond the teenybopper image of their early hits like "Wake Up Little Susie" and "Bird Dog." From covers of "adult" songs like "Temptation" to rootsy excursions like "Nashville Blues" and ultimately to hip, rock-oriented material ("Bowling Green," "Lord of the Manor") the brothers proved to the world that their musical vision was much deeper than what their '50s recordings offered. WALK RIGHT BACK chronicles this most important period in the development of one of rock & roll's finest duos.
Includes 2 previously unreleased tracks.

Rolling Stone (12/23/93, p.148) - "...WALK RIGHT BACK is hardly the definitive Everly Brothers anthology, since it doesn't pick up the thread until 1960 and `Cathy's Clown,' but it does offer an overview of their largely forgotten '60's output...."
Q (10/96, p.180) - 3 Stars - Good - "Being a star name of the 1950s proved to be a handicap in the novelty-obsessed 1960s....the public tired of them, which was cruel, given how much the Brothers' country-pop harmonies shaped the sound of...The Beatles. Most of what's on here is good and deserves a wider hearing..." Walk Right Back: The Everly Brothers On Warner Brothers, 1960-1969 Music Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars)  A Satisfying Collection
Unless you're a completist, you probably don't need or want every album the Everly Brothers made for Warner Brothers in the '60s. Still, if you're a pretty big fan with a good memory, none of the single-disc hits collections is quite enough to satisfy you. Fortunately there is this 50-song double disc anthology, which should strike you as Just Right.
In addition to the hits that made the Top 10 (Cathy's Clown, Walk Right Back, Ebony Eyes, Crying in the Rain, That's Old Fashioned) it includes almost-forgotten gems like Gone Gone Gone and Bowling Green and great B sides like I'm Not Angry. There are 15 Billboard Hot 100 chart singles in all, and four previously unreleased songs.
Of course, you'll still want a good collection of the hits they recorded for Cadence in the '50s to go along with this set. For that purpose I recommend Original British Hit Singles (Ace CDCHM 544) because it includes Should We Tell Him, a great 1958 B-side that's hard to find on other hit collections. It also includes all their other 1957-60 Cadence Billboard chart singles, 22 songs on one disc.
