Product Information

We're All Alone" was the first of Coolidge's two Adult Contemporary number 1 hits [11]– the second would be " All Time High"– and after "(Your Love Has Lifted Me) Higher and Higher" was her second single to be certified Gold for US sales of 1,000,000. Jim took that piano melody from his ex-girlfriend, Rita Coolidge. I know because in the Delaney & Bonnie days, I lived in John Garfield's old house in the Hollywood Hills and there was a guest house with an upright piano in it. Rita and Jim were up there in the guest house and invited me to join in on writing this song with them called "Time". Her sister Priscilla wound up recording it with her husband, Booker T. Jones (of Booker T. & the M.G.'s). Jim took the melody from Rita's song and didn't give her credit for writing it. Her boyfriend ripped her off. [11] It’s not for nothing that the last song on her 2018 album, Safe in the Arms of Time, is called “Please Grow Old With Me.” Coolidge’s latest album a b c "Searchable Database: Rita Coolidge".

Scaggs' own version of "We're All Alone" was the standard B-side of his international single release " Lido Shuffle" including its release in the US and UK where "Lido Shuffle" respectively charted at number 11 and number 13.

[2] Her recordings include " (Your Love Keeps Lifting Me) Higher and Higher," " We're All Alone", " I'd Rather Leave While I'm in Love", and the theme song for the 1983 James Bond film Octopussy: " All Time High". I came to talk wild turkey but what I found was much harder to tame-—love shared between two madly accomplished individuals whose paths led them both through the spotlight to where they are now and where they might never have expected to find themselves again: together.

Coolidge (71) recalls phoning her sister on her 73rd birthday - the last time they spoke and the day before Priscilla was found dead. "Some time after we'd spoken on her birthday, her husband killed my beautiful, brave Priscilla with a handgun and then - as it is inevitably phrased in newspaper accounts of murder-sucides - 'turned the weapon on himself'", she writes.

When Rita met Joe for the first time, they sang together for hours at a beach house. It was Hutto’s first party as a college freshman, only a summer out of high school. He was too nerdy to bring a date, he says, so he had his guitar instead, a nice Martin that “cost twice as much as my pathetic automobile.” He began strumming it, and he soon had company. “This lovely young woman came and sat down next to me. We knew all the same songs. I heard this voice and thought, ‘These college girls are good, this is going to be fun.’” But when Hutto left, he did so without her name or phone number.
