Everybody Loves Somebody is a 1964 album by Dean Martin on Reprise Records. [2] The album was assembled quickly from B-sides and previously released album cuts recorded between February 1962 and April 1964 in order to capitalize on the success of the title track, [3] but still reached number two on the albums chart[ citation needed ] and obtained Gold certification.[ citation needed ] [4] It was released on the same day as the Dream with Dean studio album which also contained another version of "Everybody Loves Somebody", but not the version on the singles charts, hence the B-sides compilation had "The Hit Version" emblazoned on the cover and outsold the new studio album.
