Although many people have covered this song over the past 40 years or so,Barry Palmer and John Payne's superb 1985 cover version of this song does not appear, therefore making this cover version extremely rare and to most people, a version of a very popular 1970's hit song that few people will have heard or had the opportunity to listen to.

'Love the one you're with' was a 1970 hit single written by folk rocker Stephen Stills. Born (3rd January 1945) Stephen Stills is an American singer/songwriter/guitarist who is best known for his work with Buffalo Springfield and Crosby, Stills & Nash (and Young).
This song was the first release from his solo debut Stephen Stills, peaking at No. 14 in the Billboard Hot 100.
Stills wrote the song after being inspired by the tag line - "If you can't be with the one you love, love the one you're with" which was a frequent remark by musician Billy Preston. Stills asked him for permission to use the line in a song and Preston agreed immediately.
This first (and most familiar) of Stills' solo singles, 'Love The One You're With' followed the singles from Déjà Vu in smooth succession and thus got wrapped into the whole CS&N storybook, appearing on the live 4-Way Street soon after.
A live version by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young appears on their album '4 Way Street'
