The Sutherland Brothers
John Pidgeon, Let It Rock, June 1973
IT'S HARD to figure out why the Sutherland Brothers have managed to remain so little known. Perhaps it's simply a lack of publicity, because as singers they've got more class than any duo since the Everly Brothers and there's no one in England writing better songs at the moment.
