So Lonely (Part 2)

We return to The Hollies'  1965 tearjerker, "So Lonely" because there are so many good versions we couldn't fit in our June 19 episode! The first in part 2 is The Henchmen,  who created a garage derangement of the song in 1966, with organ and cool-dude-attitude vocals (2:07) That same year, The Ashes  produced a haunting folk-rock take (34:49). Sparse, subdued and Cowboy Junkies-esque, with lonesome harmonica, shaky tambourine and  forlorn female vocals.  The Fugue were up next in 1968:  their version is really slow, really loud, with a really heavy Hammond which will put you in an un-Bachlike fugue state (1:10:52). This would be the Phantom of the Opera's version. We leave you with a super bonus version from Miriam Linna, whose 2014 version proves the song is still going strong (1:08:15)!
