In My Life was a 1966 album by Judy Collins. Working with arranger Joshua Rifkin many of the songs featured dramatic orchestral arrangements, a departure from Collins' previous albums, which had all been straightforward folk. The album included work by Leonard Cohen, The Beatles, Bob Dylan, and Richard Farina. Collins' version of the song "Suzanne" is considered to be the recording that first introduced Leonard Cohen's music to a wide audience. [2]
