Blood Harmony: The Everly Brothers Story
Their close harmony shaped the Beatles, the Beach Boys and Simon and Garfunkel, and their partnership collapsed into a decade of not speaking to each other.
Two brothers from Kentucky whose close harmony shaped the Beatles, the Beach Boys and Simon and Garfunkel, and whose partnership eventually collapsed into a decade of not speaking to each other. Mazor traces both the sound and the estrangement, and is particularly good on Roots, the late album that almost nobody bought.

In addition to the very famous songs, “Roots” is an incredible and now neglected album. This book however is good not great, as it never quite brings them to life. But it is now the main biography, and in that sense is self-recommending.
