LP – Limited Edition 180g Black Vinyl Reissue. Appetites whetted by the recent Ned Doheny compilation, Be With Records present Neds Hard Candy in its complete album form so his fans can now appreciate the songs in the context they were designed to be heard.Ned Dohenys Hard Candy, originally released in 1976, is widely considered the finest blue-eyed soul album of all time. It has long been a source of great frustration then, that this perfectly-formed Southern California masterpiece has been unavailable on vinyl for almost 40 years. Be With Records continues apace by marking its third release with the first officially licensed reissue of Dohenys nautical classic. Perhaps most famously, this impeccably smooth set features the timeless Get It Up For Love, a wonderful example of mid-70s mid-tempo white-(hot)-funk. Produced by the legendary Steve Cropper, it featured a veritable whos-who of the Laurel Canyon soft-yacht sound (JD Souther, The Eagles, Linda Ronstadt, the entire horn section for Tower of Power!) yet bombed mysteriously. Its been a cult record since. Tracklist: Side 1A1. Get It Up For LoveA2. If You Should FallA3. Each Time You PrayA4. When Love Hangs In The Balance Side 2B1. A Love Of Your OwnB2.
