This double album is essentially a "Best Of", and a very well done one at that, with all the tracks remastered. When I was about nineteen, a friend of mine's mom was moving, and let me have any of her records I wanted. There were several of these Time Life collections in there. Others will pop up as I continue this blog. What's there to say, the Everly Brothers filled a niche that only they could occupy. Those nostalgic harmonies, dreamy at the time of their release, now echoes of a by gone era. I'm often taken by the innocence in the Beach Boys song, Wouldn't It Be Nice, and I get the same feeling from the Everlys, which makes them a good listen anytime.
Figured I'd use this blog to catalogue my record collection. I'll be providing some technical information on the albums as well as my thoughts. My collection is non-genre specific. I keep the bulk of them alphabetized by Artist. However, I also maintain a section I refer to as the esoteric field, which contains unusual records, and artists I wouldn't remember the name of if they weren't in this category. The Classical and Compilation albums are also in separate sections.
