Song of the Day: "Here, There, and Everywhere"

ARTIST: Emmylou Harris
TITLE: "Here, There, and Everywhere"
YEAR: 1976

Many are likely familiar with "Here, There, and Everywhere," a track from The Beatles' 1966 album Revolver. Fewer (though still a good many) are familiar, however, with Emmylou Harris's beautiful remake. It was released as a single in 1976. The flip side, a version of Buck Owens's "Together Again," is nice, but there I prefer hearing Owens do it. However, hearing Harris sing "Here, There, and Everywhere" is quite the experience. Known for her strong vocals in general, Harris outdoes even herself on this one. It's a truly amazing rendition and lately I've been spinning it quite a bit.

If you'd like to hear her version, you can do so here. If you'd like to own it on CD, you have several options. I have not examined them thoroughly, but my recommendation would be Anthology: The Warner/Reprise Years. It's a two-disc set containing 44 tracks, including many of her hits from this period. It isn't perfect, and I wish it included the single version of "Mister Sandman" instead of the LP version, but it looks like a good set. If you'd prefer a less comprehensive set that includes the song, the album on which it originally appeared, Elite Hotel, is available on CD as well.
