''Sings His Own'' is the 1972 compilation album by singer-songwriter Mickey Newbury, a revised edition of his debut ''Harlequin Melodies'', released by RCA Records in 1972, after the critical notice of Newbury's highly acclaimed ''Looks Like Rain'' and ''Frisco Mabel Joy''. Newbury's RCA debut heavily featured songs that had been made into hits by other artists, and there is not much difference between that set and this one. Newbury largely disowned his RCA recordings, considering 1969's ''Looks Like Rain'' his true debut, and this album bears little stylistic similarity to anything else in his catalog. ''Sings His Own'' substitutes ''Harlequin Melodies'' tracks "Here Comes The Rain, Baby," "How Many Times (Must The Piper Be Paid For His Song," "Mister Can't You See," and "Harlequin Melodies," for "The Queen," "Sunshine," and "Got Down On Saturday." As with the preceding album, many of these songs would be heavily covered by other artists, and Newbury himself would reinterpret "Sweet Memories," "Sunshine," and "Good Morning, Dear" on his 1973 album ''Heaven Help The Child''. There is some debate about whether the versions of the seven duplicated songs from ''Harlequin Melodies'' are different recordings from the original album. However, most CD versions add the new ''Sings His Own'' songs as bonus tracks to the complete ''Harlequin Melodies'' album. ==Track listing== All tracks composed by Mickey Newbury; except where indicated #"Sweet Memories" - 3:19 #"Good Morning, Dear" - 2:52 #"Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)" - 2:52 #"Weeping Annaleah" - 2:34 #"Time is a Thief" - 3:02 #"Funny, Familiar, Forgotten Feelings" - 2:58 #"Sunshine" - 2:43 #"Got Down on Saturday" - 2:48 #"Are My Thoughts With You" - 3:06 #"The Queen" (Mickey Newbury, Townes Van Zandt) - 3:08 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sings His Own」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
