The Everly Brothers - Kentucky (take 7)

Recorded: August 16, 1958

Written by: Karl Davis

Kentucky

You are the dearest land outside of heaven to me

Kentucky

I miss your laurels and your redbud trees

When I die,

I want to rest upon a graceful mountain so high

For that is where God will look for me

Kentucky

I miss the old folks singing in the silvery moonlight

Kentucky

I miss the hound dogs chasin coons

I know that

My mother, dad and sweetheart are waiting for me

Kentucky

I will be coming soon

Their sweet rendition of this old tune, along with superb harmonizing, just opens the door and invites you in.......4 Ever Everly.......

I visited Kentucky for about 2 weeks, and saw so much beauty and history! I will never forget, and someday will go back. I hated to leave.

So many memories evoked when listening once again to the unique brotherly harmonizing of the Everlys! . A fact: The Beatles were known as the "English Everlys" in their British beginnings. The brothers paved the way! God rest Phil! Thank you Everlys for the memories and the ever memorable songs and singing!

Pure Bliss, this version is better than the published take, which is more upbeat, great song by the best in the business.

That tambourine or whatever percussion instrument vitiates the Everly's harmony.

@lejeune1945 I believe this is the Cadence recording, on which Archie Bleyer himself, I have read, played that rhythm part on Coke bottles with a spoon or something!

Beautiful rendition,but there's a "Somebody" who has to be in on the act with that annoying tambourine!
