The story behind
Good Together, according to DoReSol
When you dive into Good Together, by Mary MacGregor, you encounter a piece that, although brief, has a pulse that invites you to follow it. With a duration of just 2 minutes and 51 seconds, the song unfolds with an energy that makes it stand out. It's interesting to note that this melody is part of Torn Between Two Lovers, the debut album by the artist, which was released in December 1976.
The production of that album was handled by Peter Yarrow, who also contributed to writing some of its compositions. The record received a warm reception, reaching position number 17 on the Billboard 200. In fact, three singles were released to promote the album, and all of them managed to appear on both the Country and Hot 100 charts. The lead track, Torn Between Two Lovers, reached the top spot on the pop and adult contemporary charts. At the time, Robert Christgau, in his Record Guide: Rock Albums of the Seventies from 1981, gave it a rating of "C", commenting on the emergence of Mary MacGregor as an alternative to Olivia Newton-John.
