5.0 out of 5 stars
Underrated collection of classic Everly tunes!, August 19, 2005
This review is from: Gone Gone Gone (Audio CD)
This album has always gotten a bad rap, usually either because it tanked saleswise upon release, or because Everly fans consider it a slipshod compilation of throw-away tracks. Truth be told, it's an amazing listen from start to finish. "Donna, Donna" had been previously released on the "Date With the..." LP but it's still a blazing track and makes a great album opener here. Eight of the twelve cuts are making their long overdue CD debut here, including some of the most powerful tunes that the Brothers ever laid down -- "The Drop-Out", "Love Is All I Need", "The Facts Of Life", "It's Been A Long, Dry Spell", a pounding rendition of Jimmy Reed's "Ain't That Loving You Baby" and the list goes on. Great remastering and very informative liner notes make this one of the must-have reissues of the year. Thanks again to Gordon Anderson and Collector's Choice Music for rescuing another of my all-time favorite LPs from obscurity.

Gone Gone Gone-The Everly Brothers, May 12, 2007
This review is from: Gone Gone Gone (Audio CD)
Gone gone gone is a good CD. Besides the title song, other worthy efforts are Ferris Wheel, Donna Donna, and Touture. The Facts of Life is a song written by The Everly's with great harmony and in conjunction with horns, reminds me of bag pipes at times....An interesting song!
