A (relatively) in-depth analysis of the Scottish rock/soul/funk band Love and Money (as well as some other general stuff) in (just under) twenty five minutes.
Formed in 1985 in Glasgow, Love and Money was created by three former members of Friends Again (singer-songwriter and guitarist James Grant, drummer Stuart Kerr and keyboardist Paul McGeechan) along with bassist Bobby Paterson, who replaced Friends Again's Neil Cunningham and who had been a member of Set the Tone, a band previously signed to Island Records in 1983. In their initial nine years together they recorded four moderately successful albums, three of which were released in the United States, and had six chart hits in the United Kingdom.
Love and Money went their separate ways in 1994, although they did regroup for one final gig at Glasgow Barrowland on 23 December 1994 entitled 'Love and Money: RIP'. They also reformed for a show at the Glasgow Royal Concert Hall as part of Celtic Connections 2011.
Strange Kind of Love was re-issued by Cherry Red Records in 2010 and includes six unreleased demos and forewords from Grant, McGeechan and producer Gary Katz
Dogs In Traffic was reissued in 2022 on vinyl and CD. The CD contained six bonus tracks.
I do hope you enjoy this episode.
