Another of my long-term favo(u)rites are the Evs
I saw them in 2003 on the Simon and Garfunkel "Old Friends' tour having previously caught them in the UK twice the first time in 1960
when their "backing group" was two of Buddy's original Crickets. I subscribe to the ezine issued fom Holland by Martial F. Bekkers

Worth a visit is the EBI web site at:-

From the latest ezine regarding reissues next month of the 60s albums on CD
"Gordon Anderson, head of Collector's Choice Music this week officially
acknowledged that the Everly's 60's WB CD's which are being released by CCM are
in fact made from the UK remasters which have been done by the already legendary
Bill Inglott. Prime quality therefore!"
(As those who have the Songbook box set well know)
The Evs of course moved to Warner Bros Records in 1960 with a song about somebody's Clown and I do believe young Gord and Terry (Whelan)'s Two Tones were inspired by the two brothers.

To fetch a pail of water
Jill came down with half a crown
she didn't go up for water!!
