2 CD set - 33 Songs - 24-page deluxe colour booklet

The Handsome Ned set The Name is Ned, is a welcome introduction to a nearly forgotten Canadian singer/songwriter. When Handsome Ned died in 1987 at the age of 29, he left behind a wealth of recordings, from studio tracks to live recordings and radio appearances. The Name is Ned consists of a fairly even mix of originals and covers and an impressive array of guests. For listeners looking for a taste of the kind of raw and earnest performance Handsome Ned was capable of, the live recordings hold an edge over the more polished studio tracks. However, it's the original songs that display the depth of Handsome Ned's talent. Standout tracks include "Put the Blame on Me," "That'll Be the Love," "One Hundred Miles of Open Road," and "You'll Never See Midnight." The Name is Ned is a worthy reminder of a talented Canadian artist.

As Canada's leading music archivists, we were called upon by Capitol Records/EMI Music to contribute these vintage recordings derived from our forthcoming 8-CD Levon and the Hawks Box Set entitled FROM BACON FAT TO JUDGEMENT DAY. This set documents the Hawks' evolution from the pre-Hawkins bands of the late 50's to the Basement Tape recordings of Big Pink. AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN. Until we're ready for this release, we decided we'd open up the vaults and let a few other gems out for your listening pleasure. If you enjoyed Levon and the Hawks and The Basement Tapes recordings that OPM supplied for The Band Box Set: A Musical History, you will also enjoy these other fine recordings from the archives.
