had chores. There were no special privileges for anyone. The boys didn't even have allowances. We just shared and shared alike." It was before they broke up as a family act that Don began to sell his songs. His first sale brought six hundred dollars and encouragement. When he was sixteen, he wrote "Thou Shalt Not Steal." Kitty Wells recorded that one for Decca. Together, the boys wrote "Here We Are Again," which Anita Carter put on wax. The flipsides of their big hits for Cadence have been originals, and their new Cadence album, "The Everly Brothers," includes several original tunes. The boys have always been so wrapped up in music that there was no question of their continuing the struggle to make good in the business when their parents decided to retire. "Daddy and Mom decided they would learn a new trade," Phil says. "Mom went into beautician's school and Daddy to barber's. They were in Iowa but decided we should stay in Nashville, where we would have more opportunity. "At first, we were lucky. Anyway, we thought so. We made a recording for Columbia and it was released in December of 1955 — the same time as Elvis's 'Heartbreak Hotel.' Well, we were lost in the shuffle and Columbia kind of cooled off toward us. We got singing jobs here and there, but weren't making much money." It was about this time that the boys were batching it and making do with sandwiches, doughnuts, one suit apiece, and pluck. But they had an admirer in Chester Atkins, who praised them to Wesley Rose. Rose is head of the Acuff-Rose Music Publishing Company and Hickory Recording Company in Nashville. The boys phoned Wesley and asked for an audition. "That was early in March of 1956," Wes says. "The boys came into my office quiet and shy, which is their usual way, and asked if they could sing for me." "Wes was real great," Phil recalls. "He said that he would have a recording contract with a national label for us within two weeks — and, if not, he would record us on his own label." Wes picks up the story: "Back in my office, I phoned Archie Bleyer at Cadence. He was coming down to Nashville to record Gordon Terry and I told him about the boys. He said that he would be glad to give them a good listen when he came down. Archie liked what he heard and immediately set up a quick recording session. One of the tunes Archie brought down from New York was 'Bye Bye Love.' Don and Phil really flipped on this song and learned it after one hearing. The combination of Everly, Bleyer, and Rose started working, and the results were beyond all expectations." So, within a week, the boys had recorded their first disc, "Bye Bye Love" (which, incidentally, was published by Wesley Rose). It began selling like Presley and, very shortly, the Everly Brothers had their first gold record. Their second, "Wake Up, Little Suzie," has also gone over the million mark. "I don't think success has changed us," Don says, "although it's nice to have some security. We aren't spendthrifts, but it's good to be able to buy the things you need. The best of it, though, is being accepted for your music— because I'd like to make music my life. I'd like to go on writing songs and recording, but I guess you can't expect such spectacular success as this to last more than two or three years." Show-wise people like Ed Sullivan and Wesley Rose, who have an awareness of real talent and genuine aspiration, don't agree. They think the Everly Brothers will be around a long time.
