Hudson Ford Daylight CD

Digitally remastered and expanded edition of the 1977 album Daylight by Hudson-Ford. Richard Hudson and John Ford first worked together in the band Elmer Gantry's Velvet Opera in the late 1960s. In 1970 the duo joined Strawbs for their live album Just A Collection Of Antiques & Curios and remained with the group for the next three years, contributing as writers to the albums and writing the biggest Strawbs hit single, 'Part Of The Union'.

Following the release of the Strawbs album Bursting At The Seams, the musicians departed to form Hudson-Ford. They recorded three albums for A&M Records between 1973 and 1975.

In 1976, they departed A&M to sign with CBS Records, for whom they would record a clutch of singles and the album Daylight. Released in 1977, Daylight would be the final Hudson-Ford album, covering a breadth of styles and including the hit single 'Are You Dancing'. Previously unreleased officially on CD, Daylight has now been re-mastered from the CBS master tapes and includes four bonus tracks previously unreleased on CD, drawn from singles released in 1976 and 1977.

This edition of Daylight restores the original album artwork and features an essay by Malcolm Dome and exclusive interviews with Richard Hudson and John Ford.
