If some rock nerd ever challenges you to play Six Degress of The Everly Brothers with the ultimate throwdown of linking Phil and Don to a-ha, here’s your answer:
It turns out a-ha played this post-peak Everly Brothers’ gem, “Bowling Green,” on their farewell tour, in tribute to a-ha’s manager, Terry Slater, who wrote the song! He’s not even from Kentucky—or America, for that matter!
Also Warren Zevon was a member of the Everly Bros. touring band in the early 70s.
When he decided to be their manager, did he take on them or did they take on him?
I encourage you to click on the link at his name and read about his dedication to the band. Inspiring stuff!
