Patsy Cline - She's Got You [Americana] HD color Remixed Remastered

"She's Got You" is an upbeat jazz-pop tune with country overtones written by Hank Cochran and first recorded by Patsy Cline in December 1961, released in 1962 as a single. In Ellis Nassour's Patsy Cline biography, "Honky Tonk Angel", it tells of Hank Cochran calling Patsy to tell her that he'd just written her next number 1 hit. She told him to come over to her house with a bottle of liquor and play it on the guitar for her and friend Dottie West who was visiting that afternoon.

Cline was emotionally moved by the lyrics and loved the song so much that she learned it that night, calling up her manager and producer to sing it to them over the phone. At her next session, she recorded it. This was a rare instance, as Cline and her producer, Owen Bradley, often disagreed with each other's choice of material. This time, they both agreed they had a hit.

"She's Got You" was released on January 30, 1962, and immediately went to No. 1 on the Hot country chart, No. 14 on the Billboard Hot 100, and No. 3 on the Easy Listening chart.

Session players on the recording included Harold Bradley on 6-string electric bass, Floyd Cramer piano, Buddy Harman drums, Walter Haynes pedal steel guitar, Randy Hughes acoustic guitar, The Jordanaires on backing vocals, Grady Martin on electric guitar, with Bob Moore on acoustic bass, and Bill Pursell organ.

"She's Got You" marked her first hit single in the United Kingdom, where it reached No. 43. The hit led to an appearance on American Bandstand with Dick Clark that February and led to Cline having her own show in Las Vegas in the following November. "She's Got You" was followed by a few other minor hits that year, including "Imagine That", "When I Get Thru' With You", "So Wrong", and "Strange".

Here, her February 7, 1962 television performance of the song broadcast from WSMV-TV, 5700 Knob Rd, in Nashville TN for the Pet Milk TV Grand Ole Opry number 31 is remixed and mastered in HD color by DocRock1007 against her studio recording of the tune, for your enjoyment.
