5 out of 5 stars The exception to the rule..........2003-05-21

This is the one and ONLY re-recorded hits package I have ever liked or would recommend to anyone. Normally I hate albums with phony re-recorded versions of original songs. But the re-recorded songs on this album are something special, actually IMPROVING on the originals! Don and Phil took special pains to insure that these songs would remain absolutely faithful to the originals, recruiting many of the original session musicians along with song writer Boudleaux Bryant and producer Wesley Rose on hand in the studio. Together they remade 6 classics from the Cadence era (the 6 other songs featured here from their Warner years are the original versions). The Everly's still had those magic vocals and the musicians were well-rehearsed and up to the task. What's so great about these remakes is that they've managed to maintain the soul of the originals while making vast improvements to the overall sound quality. The music is full, rich, and blends beautifully with those awesome Everly Brothers 2-part harmonies. All the songs included here are in true stereo except "Ebony Eyes" which is rechanneled. Are they 100% indistinguishable from the originals? Well, no. So I can't recommend this to someone who just wants the originals. For those folks, I recommend picking up "All-Time Original Hits" instead. But for those who want to hear a little something more from the Everly's, this is a great choice. I only wish they included a few more of their early Cadence hits since these are without a doubt the best remakes I have ever heard. Like I said, the exception to the rule.

3 out of 5 stars You Can Do Better...........2002-12-16

Unless you're actually looking for the 1964 Warner Bros. re-recordings of the 1950's Cadence tracks, you can pass on this one. As re-recordings go, these are excellent, but most folks would rather have the original hit versions. For the best domestic single-disc compilation, pick up Rhino's "All Time Original Hits" from 1999. "Original Hits" features the original versions of the Everly's biggest hits, including classics like "Let It Be Me" and "When Will I Be Loved" that are conspicuously absent from Warner's old "Very Best Of" album. My only knock on "All Time Original Hits" is that there was plenty of room for lesser gems like "Claudette", "Gone, Gone, Gone" and "Bowling Green" that seldom appear on Everly "Best Of" discs.

5 out of 5 stars They're COOL!.......2002-11-11

They sounds Like McBride & the Ride and Deanna Jarrett. The Everly Brothers was Disgust their Song "Bye Bye Love" or "(Til)i kissed You. Don's two Daughters, Dana And Mercedes smile at uncle Phil, He said "you Like It?"

4 out of 5 stars pretty good, but not the original hits.......2001-02-25

What the cover doesn't tell you is that for the most part these are not the original Everlys hits, but a new recording session from the 60s. While some people may prefer these versions because they are stereo, I remain a devotee of the original versions, and was very disappointed when I first put this CD on. That said, having listened to it a couple of times since, the versions really are pretty good, with fine harmonizing and guitar playing. Still, for a one disc compilation, I recommend the 16 Original Hits.

5 out of 5 stars Nostalgia!.......2000-12-29

I have been listening to this album since I was a little girl and it still moves me every time. The two-part harmonies are absolutely cosmic, and singing along is the only thing better than listening. This album goes from lovesick to joyful to hearbroken in 12 tracks. I know some people complain that these are not the original hits, but these are the ones I love, and I would recommend them highly to anyone. Get it! You'll love it too.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Excellent......especially the live tracks.......2000-08-30

Lovers of the Everly Brothers who prefer their studio recordings might want to steer clear of this one, as the last five songs (including their greatest, Cathy's Clown)are taken from their 1983 reunion concert. However, as anyone who saw that concert will testify, the live tracks are actually better than the studio recordings, especially the live version of Walk Right Back. I recommend this album to anyone who enjoys listening to solid rhythms, tight harmonies and generally all-round brilliant music.

4 out of 5 stars Brings back memories.......2000-06-23

I remember as a child my parents playing this on 8 track....I can still remember all the words...what a great collection of their most popular songs.......

        3 out of 5 stars Nice selection of their best, but could've been more............2007-06-10

        I don't know if MASTERS had publishing rights on any more of The Everly Brothers catalog, but 15 to 20 more songs of similar length could've easily fit on this CD, which truly would've made it an exceptional release. However, if any EB fan had to pick 10 favorites, these would be the ones give or take. I purchased this CD around the time it was released in a bargain bin at a Camelot Music store, back when the only Amazon was in South America.
