Something Else Again is an album by American folk singer and guitarist Richie Havens, released in January 1968. The track, "Run, Shaker Life" was based on a Shaker dance song by elder Issachar Bates and reworked from Havens' old band, The Last Men, who reunited for this recording. "No Opportunity Necessary, No Experience Needed" was later reworked by Yes on their second album, Time and a Word.
