The Everly Brothers “Gone, Gone, Gone“ & “Cathy’s Clown“

American Bandstand. November 07, 1964. The Everly’s are always great, but this performance definitely signifies a change in the music trend. “Gone, Gone, Gone“ has a driving beat which personifies the eve of the “Go-Go“ era. The kids in the audience have since adapted shoulder jerks and newer hand gestures when keeping rhythm. Hand clapping and chewing Beech-Nut gum has seen its day by this time. I’m not sure just how far into the 60’s I’ll go when adding performances to this channel. This Everly Brothers’ performance has really made me realize its time to create a secondary channel to house the 60’s music. Well, at least “Cathy’s Clown“ takes a step back to the Everly Brothers’ earlier days. I think that’s the only reason I included it in this vintage showcase. Anyway, enjoy.
