Let It Be Me THE EVERLY BROTHERS (with lyrics)

The Everly Brothers helped to popularize the song (originally recorded in 1955 by Gilbert Becaud)with their 1959 rendition, which reached #7 on the Billboard Hot 100. The harmony arrangement of this version was often emulated in subsequent remakes. This was the first Everly Brothers single to be recorded in New York, and not in Nashville. The musicians that backed up the brothers on the record included Howard Collins, Barry Galbraith and Mundell Lowe on guitar, Lloyd Trotman on bass, Jerry Allison on drums and Hank Rowland on piano.
