Love and Money, a Scottish rock/soul/funk band, was formed in 1985 in Glasgow. The group consisted of James Grant on vocals and guitar, Stuart Kerr on drums, Paul McGeechan on keyboards, and Bobby Paterson on bass. Love and Money's debut single "Candybar Express" was produced by Andy Taylor of Duran Duran and reached number 56 on the UK Singles Chart in spring 1986. Their first album All You Need Is… was released later that year but did not achieve significant commercial success. The band gained more traction with their second album, Strange Kind of Love, which featured "Halleluiah Man" and reached number 63 on the UK Singles Chart in 1988. This album included contributions from Jeff Porcaro of Toto and Rick Derringer, and was produced by Gary Katz of Steely Dan. The band toured extensively to promote Strange Kind of Love, opening for acts like Tina Turner and Simply Red. Their third album, Dogs in the Traffic, was released in 1989 and included notable singles such as "My Love Lives in a Dead House" and "Winter". In 1993, their fourth album Littledeath was released on Iona Gold Records but saw limited success. The band disbanded in 1994 following a final concert at the Glasgow Barrowland. Love and Money reunited briefly in 2011 for performances at Celtic Connections and released their fifth studio album The Devil's Debt in October 2012.
