''Let's Hear It for Love'' is the eighth and latest studio album from American rock and pop singer Benny Mardones. ==Background== The album would be Mardones' first album for his current record label Warrior Records. It was his first album of all new original music since the 1998 album "Bless a Brand New Angel". Being released with limited promotion, the album didn't reach any national charts within America. The main form of promotion for the album was Mardones' live performances where numerous songs from the album were introduced into the live set.〔 The album's producer Jim Ervin is known for his work with Glen Campbell, Little Eva and Eddie Money.〔 The album was dedicated to his long-time road manager and dear friend, Tommy Piraino, who died around the time from leukemia. The track "Just for You My Friend" features a short appearance from Piraino's son, whilst the song itself was written as a tribute to Piraino, as Benny grieved.〔http://www.warriorrecords.com/benny/〕 The title track "Let's Hear It for Love" is a duet with American rock musician and singer Eddie Money, who also co-wrote the track. "When the Lights Go Out" is a duet with vocalist Robbyn Kirmsse whilst the duet "This Time" features American singer-songwriter Katrina Carlson. The album was written by Mardones and James Ervin, except for "Let's Hear It for Love" which featured a co-writing credit to Money, whilst "Bye Bye Baby, Goodbye" featured a co-writing credit to Jack Scott. "This Time" is not the same track as a song with the identical title on Mardones' 1981 album ''Too Much to Lose''. Although his final album to date, Mardones has released a yearly series of live albums under the title ''Turning Stone'' and the 2008 release ''Extended Versions'', as well as a new single in 2012, titled "I've Got You". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Let's Hear It for Love」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
