Some Hearts, the last studio album, December 1, 2007
This review is from: Some Hearts (Audio CD)
I have all three of the Everly Brothers' Mercury Studio albums. I like this last album just as much as the first two (produced by Dave Edmunds). "Some Hearts," produced by Don and Phil themselves, features what they do best - love songs, and they sing them from the heart. Once again their songs capture interesting observations about falling in and out of love. Like their first two 80s albums, this last one brings the Everlys' sound up to date while keeping the emphasis on their crisp, stirring voices. Standouts, for me, include the ballad: "Be My Love Again" and the stompers: "Can't Get Over It," "Ride the Wind" and "Angel of the Darkness." There is always a bit of country and a lot of rock and roll in the Everly sound. And what is true of their music overall also holds for their last studio album, namely, you'll never grow tired of listening to it.

Some hearts are worth waiting for., January 17, 2006
This review is from: Some Hearts (Audio CD)
This was the third, and last, studio album the Everly Brothers recorded for Mercury Records. It is also the weakest of the three albums. The main problem here is that the songs aren't quite as good this time around. The fault there lies with the Everlys themselves, since they wrote seven of the ten songs here. I suppose it's admirable that they wanted to write the majority of the material themselves, but the other Mercury albums (where they only wrote one to three songs) are better.

close ...but broken winged, November 14, 2006
This review is from: Some Hearts (Audio CD)
The last the third period of Everly Bros. First, Cadence early classic Second, Warner Bros hits, Third, Mercury 80's comeback SOME HEARTS suffers from some lesser songs Phil and Don still ring true voices but the material does not add up to the previous last 2 albums. It is sorry to be said that this is the last album/CD of new material, maybe forever. Everly Bros. completists will want this CD (no LP issued)
