Don Everly, who with his late younger sibling Phil established the template for close harmony vocalizing in the chart-topping duo the Everly Brothers, died Saturday at age 84 in Nashville. No cause of death was immediately disclosed. I'm no doctor but my best guess is he passed due to old age.
The Queen and I saw the Everly brothers last perform in Columbus Ohio around six years ago. They were the warm-up act for Simon & Garfunkle. The brother's outshined the latter group by a landslide. They were called 'Don and Phil from Nashville' but truth be told they were born in Shenandoah, Iowa.
