Would anyone know what album contains the 70s pop hit, Alone Again Naturally? I did find it was released as a single but I can't fine any of her albums that contain this tune. It may have only released as a 45.I did fine someone selling the 45, but for 50 dollars I'll stick to listening to it on youtube.

according to the bruyninckx discography it was on the Album "feelin´ good" on Mainstream mrl379. Sarah acc by the big bands of Peter matz, Michel legrand, jack elliott and allyn Ferguson. los Angeles 1972.

Keep boppin´

Thanks.

Wow, I didn't know Sarah had recorded a Gilbert O'Sullivan song?! I'd love to hear her sing it! :)

You can find her sing this on youtube.

Wow, thanks Tom. You know, Gilbert O'Sullivan was one of the first singer songwriters getting my interest to lyrics. I wrote his lyrics down by ear from cassette, lol. How lovely Sarah recorded one of his beautiful songs. She had such a great tone of voice.

I like this song by Gilbert O'Sullivan, NOT by Sassy....

Speaking in 2009 O'Sullivan said; "I write pop songs. End of story. That's all I wanted to do. That's all I want to do. And that's all I continue to want to do"

This is the real Sassy IMHO

I never knew either, it was a pleasant surprise. I ran into a big band arrangement of the song from the Woody Herman series. I think it is this one:


Musicians do recognize a good song and want to give their rendition to it. A compliment to the work of Gilbert O'Sullivan. This last arrangement is by Alan Broadbent btw. in case you are wondering Edited by page

Yes, the original is best, but I liked Sarah's version too. I never knew she did a version of the tune.

Like I told before, it's a good song. But I don't like this version sung by Sassy.

That's okay. I still like her version.

The song seems to have had a wide appeal!

Oh well, Oh well, now that everyone knows, I will scratch this from version from my BFT in June. I was listening to Redman's Musics CD and that's what had me see who else may have recorded the tune.

Man, she was one of a kind, wasn't she?! I must say I ache with her while listening. It is terribly sad and familiar. Thank you for posting, Tom. It impressed me.
