Classic Album Sundays Presents

Classic Album Sundays founder Colleen ‘Cosmo’ Murphy will be joined by Californian singer/songwriter/guitarist Ned Doheny to explore his 1976 landmark LP Hard Candy which features ‘A Love of Your Own’ (covered by Average White Band) and ‘Get It Up for Love’ (covered by Maxine Nightingale, Tata Vega and David Cassidy!). Doheny is a staple of the Californian music scene and has worked with The Eagles’ Glen Frey and Don Henley, Linda Ronstadt, Jackson Browne, Mama Cass and J.D. Souther. He is a gifted songwriter whose songs have been sought after by other artists including Chaka Khan who covered Doheny’s ‘What Cha’ Gonna Do For Me’ and recently much of his catalogue has been reissued on Be With Records.

After the interview, Hard Candy will be played in its entirety on vinyl on an audiophile sound system featuring KEF loudspeakers so that listeners can hear new details and nuances in the recording. The evening will conclude with a Q&A during which attendees will have the opportunity to ask Doheny their own questions. Join us to experience Hard Candy in a way you never have before.

About Classic Album Sundays: Monthly Listening Sessions at KEF Music Gallery London

Classic Album Sundays was founded in 2010 by DJ/broadcaster/producer Colleen ‘Cosmo’ Murphy as a response to the way we listen to music in the 21st century. CAS tells the stories behind the albums that have shaped our culture, and in some cases, our lives. They host worldwide album listening events that dig deep, immersing fans into the album through musical and verbal storytelling followed by an uninterrupted vinyl playback on some of the world’s best sound systems so that listeners can have a brand new experience of the featured album. Their website is a hive of classic album activity with artist interview videos, classic album podcasts, features and playlists and they also host an online Album Club for their Patreon Members.

For the first time since the pandemic, Classic Album Sundays will resume their monthly Album Listening Sessions now being held at the KEF Music Gallery London. The sessions are hosted by Colleen and other CAS hosts and often feature interviews with guest artists and producers allowing the music fan to take a deep dive into the back story behind a favourite album. The album will then be played in its entirety on an audiophile sound system featuring KEF loudspeakers so that listeners can hear new details and nuances in the recording. The evening will conclude with an informal chat and Q&A.
