Then after they come back to do this reunion concert in London England they still with all of the oldies that they do still have got that great sound that they are famous for when they sing their songs. If you want to hear some great oldies as well as legendary rock and roll by 2 great singers The Everly Brothers Reunion Concert is for you. This will bring back great memories of 2 great legends.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Fantastic Performance Comment: Reading all the other reviews, I have to ask myself "what is up with these people?"
The Everly Brothers are an American Treasure. Be proud of them.
I've been a fan of theirs since about 1957 or so and have seen them in concert in UK many, many times. As for the reviewer who said the Brit fans at the Albert Hall "sat on their hands", well, over here, we go to hear the music, not the sound of our own voices.
This is a superb DVD. Buy it and enjoy.
PS The backing guitarist is the fantastic Albert Lee, one of UK's finest - He also was a member of the Crickets for a time
Customer Rating:      Summary: Another great nostalgia trip! Comment: This was just another great nostalgia trip! Considering the time that lapsed between their musical origins and successes, and the time the concert was performed, the Everly Brothers were almost as dynamic as when they began. The vocal quality was very surprising, and they stayed within their contemporary ranges to maintain their legendary harmony. This DVD was well worh waiting for, and some numbers raised goose-bumps.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Everly Brother Reunion Concert Comment: This is a great addition to any rock and roll lovers collection. The Everly Brothers are the real deal, and this concert from Royal Albert Hall in 1982 shows that they can rock, sing country, and make you cry with their ballads. Of all the greatest early rockers, I think these guys influenced more acts (especially UK ones) than anyone except Chuck Berry. Also, this has 5.1 surround, so that should make your viewing even more enjoyable.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Everly Brothers Comment: I strongly recommend this DVD to anyone who likes these two and any 50's/60's music fans. A very emotional reunion.

Some things never change--and when it comes to the Everly Brothers, that's definitely a good thing. Seen here performing at London's Royal Albert Hall in 1983 following a lengthy and acrimonious split, Don and Phil barely miss a beat. They were in their mid-40s, and performing together for the first time in some 10 years (Phil had smashed a guitar and walked offstage in what you might call a fit of pique), but their harmonies are as perfect as ever, to the point where it's hard to tell who's singing which part. Backed by a band of crack British musicians, they run through some 21 songs, including a dizzying array of hits. "Crying in the Rain," "Wake Up Little Susie," "Cathy's Clown," "Bye Bye Love": the Everlys may not have written most of their tunes, but they sure know how to pick 'em. This is the real deal. --Sam Graham
