2021 collection. Buck Owens and Susan Raye's Together Again is a 22-track compendium of duet and solo cuts originally issued between 1970 and 1975. Together Again boasts a dozen Owens/Raye duets and nine solo Raye deep tracks. There is no overlap here with Varese Sarabande/Craft Recordings' solo Raye compilation 16 Greatest Hits (meaning that her most familiar songs such as "L.A. International Airport," "Willy Jones," "Pitty, Pitty, Patter," and "(I've Got A) Happy Heart" are absent) but a number of cuts do appear both here and on Varese/Craft's The Very Best of Buck Owens and Susan Raye. The deep cuts selected (largely penned by Owens and those in his creative circle) paint a full portrait, however, of the timeless style which earned Raye five Academy of Country Music nominations between 1969 and 1973.
