The music world is mourning the loss of Rock and Roll and Country Hall of Famer Phil Everly. As The Everly Brothers, Phil and his brother Don were one of the most influential groups in music history, bridging popular music of the 50s and 60s and inspiring the close harmony vocal style of The Beatles, The Beach Boys, The Bee Gees, The Byrds, The Hollies, Simon & Garfunkel, and generations that followed. From their first million-selling smash hit "Bye Bye Love" in 1957, the Everly Brothers went on to record more than a dozen Top 10 singles, and nearly three dozen Top 100 hits. The handsome pair were featured often in 16 Magazine alongside Elvis Presley and Ricky Nelson, and Gloria Stavers was a big fan of their music along with the rest of the world.
