The Dutch Everly Brothers CD

The Blue Diamonds
The Dutch Everly Brothers CD

The Blue Diamonds became the biggest Pop duo in Europe, notably successful in Holland, Belgium, West Germany, Austria and Scandinavia.
Their early successes were with note-for-note covers of contemporary US R&R hits, including 'Til I Kissed You, Let It Be Me and Cathy’s Clown, which earned them the sobriquet “The Dutch Everly Brothers”,
But their biggest record was a rocked-up revival of an ancient film theme, ‘Ramona’, originally a million-seller for Gene Austin way back in 1928.
They also charted heavily with covers of Oh Carol, Are You Sure, Little Ship and Dream Baby among others
This collection presents the Very Best of their output between 1959 and 1962, and includes all their major hits.
It is a remarkable body of work, and yet they remain virtually unknown in the UK, which was just about the only European country in which they were unable to get a hit record.
