The Everly Brothers—aka Don and Phil to fans with an intimate appreciation for them—seemed to exist almost as an apparition. Emerging within the formative era for young Baby Boomers during the blandly regimented '50s, they were a ubiquitous presence, clad in snug suits and skinny ties, hair neatly Brylcreemed, never raising their voices when they sang.

Rainer Lange, Jahrgang 1949, zählte zu den dennoch Glücklichen, die diese Epoche hautnah miterleben durften.
