Yes, it’s where was I. We all know where I am now: at Chuy’s.
So for the rest of the month, we’ll look back musically. Keep those pins for the map handy, ‘cause we’re still traveling! Here’s today’s song.
Bowling Green - Everly Brothers
If you don’t remember this, then you’re not from Bowling Green.
And, I don’t blame you if you don’t. This barely dented the top 40 in 1967, and it was the last trip to the top 40 that the brothers would make for 17 years.
Fun fact: this was co-written by Phil Everly’s then-wife Jacqueline. That’s a little interesting, because Phil wasn’t born in Kentucky (he was born in Chicago: it was Don who was born in Kentucky). It doesn’t matter, because they will always be Kentucky boys.
Bowling Green
Written by Terry Slater and Jacqueline Ertel
Recorded by the Everly Brothers
From The Everly Brothers Sing, 1967
I know it touches the soul:

@FourWalls Not that much, they had that summer TV show in 1970..so they still had a fair amount of fans around then

The music world was passing them by when 1967 rolled around.

They did some good songs. Wake Up Little Susie, Crying in the Rain, etc. This one is one I haven't heard that much.

Psychedelic music was taking over by then, poor Everlys never stood a chance.
