Phil & Don. Great music makers who had a great influence on The Beatles.

Since no one has mentioned it yet:

They were both Marines.

From an era where almost all "celebrities" served in uniform.

Now we have draft dodgers like Clintoon and the Kenyan usurper.............

It was Cathy’s Clown, I still have the 45.

Dream is one of the greatest pop ballads ever. They were rockabilly royalty.

I was so wishing those two would make up and start touring. What beautiful harmonies.
