Part 11/12:
The story of the Everly Brothers, Don and Phil, highlights the significant impact of personal struggles on a professional relationship. Their conflicts peaked during a farewell concert in 1973 when a drunk Don angered Phil to the extent that he smashed his guitar, resulting in an emotional declaration that their partnership had "died."
Despite later reconciliation in the 1980s, their dramatic split remains a cautionary tale about the turbulence that personal issues can inflict on even the most successful collaborations.
