2507 Jim Reeves & Patsy Cline - Have You Ever Been Lonely (Have You Ever Been Blue?)

From: Greatest Hits, Jim Reeves and Patsy Cline; Year: 1982 (1961); Genre: Country

For some reason I had this song running through my mind, so as usual I went ahead and picked it.
This is kind of an interesting one in that both artists had not recorded the song in the studio and had been dead for nearly 20 years when it was made and released. Actually both had recorded their own separate versions of the venerable standard in the early 1960s, but through recording wizardry they were able to mash the two versions together to make a duet out of it, which is still, I believe, one of the most famous versions.
