Together Again (Buck Owens song)

The song, best known as the "B" side to Owens' No. 1 hit, "My Heart Skips a Beat", interrupted that song's run at Number One on the U.S. country charts. Steel guitarist Tom Brumley's performance on "Together Again" is considered "one of the finest steel guitar solos in the history of country music" by the Country Music Television staff;^[1] it inspired Jerry Garcia to learn the instrument.

Covers

Ray Charles released the song in 1966, and it reached #19 on the Billboard pop chart and #1 on the adult contemporary chart.^[2] On the soul chart, this version went to #10.^[3]

In 1979, Owens and Harris dueted on a song called "Play Together Again, Again," which paid tribute to the song both artists recorded and made famous.
In 1983, Kenny Rogers and Dottie West released a duet version of the song (it originally was recorded for their 1979 Classics album, but was released on Rogers' Duets album in 1983), that reached No. 19 on the Hot Country Singles chart.
