Both Sides Of An Evening was an album first released in 1961 by The Everly Brothers. Though it was released at the peak of their career, it failed to make any of the record charts.

Fourteen songs were laid down for the album, in two halves (the first seven, for side A, were marked "For dancing", and the second seven, for side B, marked "For dreaming"). The completed album was recorded in only three days worth of sessions. It was produced by Bill Porter.

Prior to the album's release, half-minute excerpts of the songs were released on a Souvenir sampler, purchasable for a single dollar.
