The all-time-known version was recorded by the Everly Brothers[iii] at RCA Studio Nashville and released as a single in April 1958. It had been recorded by the Everly Brothers live in just two takes[five] on March 6, 1958, and features Chet Atkins on guitar. It was the only single ever to be at No. 1 on all of the Billboard singles charts simultaneously, on June two, 1958. Information technology first reached No. 1 on the "Virtually played by Jockeys" and "Summit 100" charts on May xix, 1958,[half dozen] and remained there for v and three weeks, respectively; with the Baronial 1958 introduction of the Billboard Hot 100 chart, the song ended the twelvemonth at No. 2. "All I Have to Exercise Is Dream" also hit No. one on the R&B chart[7] also as becoming the Everly Brothers' third chart topper on the country nautical chart.[8] The Everly Brothers briefly returned to the Hot 100 in 1961 with this song.

Outside the Us, "All I Take to Do Is Dream" saw massive success in various countries, most notably the U.k., where it topped the UK's New Musical Limited chart in June 1958 and remained there for vii weeks (including one calendar week as a joint number 1 with Vic Damone's "On the Street Where You Alive"), spending 21 weeks on the chart in U.k..[9] [10] The song has also featured on several notable lists of the best songs or singles of all time, including British music magazine Q 's 1001 best songs ever in 2003.

It was named one of the "500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Coil" by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and received the Grammy Hall of Fame Laurels in 2004.

The B-side, "Claudette", was the first major song writing success for Roy Orbison (who as well recorded his own version of the song) and was named afterwards his first wife.[11] Equally a outcome of this success Orbison terminated his contract with Sun Records and affiliated himself with the Everly's publisher, Acuff-Rose Music.
