"Those Memories of You" is a song written by Alan O'Bryant. It was first recorded by Bill & James Monroe in 1978 and later released as a single by Pam Tillis in 1986, whose version peaked at #55 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles chart.[1] The song was also recorded by LeAnn Rimes on her second independent album under Nor Va Jak, From My Heart to Yours, released in 1992.

The song was most famously recorded by Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris on their 1987 album, Trio. Released in August 1987, it was the album's third single.
