Times of Our Lives (Judy Collins album)

Times of Our Lives is the fourteenth studio album by American singer-songwriter Judy Collins, released in February 1982 by Elektra Records. It peaked at No. 190 on the Billboard Pop Albums charts. In 1981, prior to the album's release, Collins appeared on the CBS soap opera Guiding Light, performing two songs from the (then) forthcoming album: "Great Expectations" and "It's Gonna Be One of Those Nights" (both having penned by Hugh Prestwood).

The single of "Memory" by Andrew Lloyd Webber from the West End musical Cats was the earliest released version of the song by a singer (apart from its London Cast Album). It was quickly followed by another version by Barbra Streisand.
