This week we’re commemorating the release of “All of You.” Written by Jane McNealy in 1979, this was a fertile creative period for Jane as she explored exciting new possibilities in her approach to songwriting.

Throughout her career, McNealy frequently worked with renowned jazz musician Harold Battiste Jr. This particular song emerged from recording sessions for an album they were creating with Battiste providing both the arrangements and his distinctive saxophone playing.

Battiste was particularly drawn to “All of You” and, in a spontaneous moment, decided to add his saxophone as the lead melody line. His high-spirited contribution spurred McNealy’s already inspired composition. You can find this exhilarating tune and much more on all of our music and video platforms: www.loflorecords.com.

Lo-Flo Records is thrilled to present “When,” a previously unreleased archival recording by composer and songwriter Jane McNealy, featuring the distinctive voice of pop and soul singer Mel Carter.

Originally written in the late 1960s, it was a few years later when renowned jazz musician Harold Battiste Jr. found it while going through Jane‘s catalog and introduced it to Carter. The three of them recorded it during an informal session at Battiste’s Los Angeles home.

Mel Carter began his recording career in the 1960s and was mentored by the great Sam Cooke who signed Carter to his record label. Two stellar releases from his catalog include the 1963 hit, “When a Boy Falls in Love,” co-written by Cooke, and Carter’s best-known hit, “Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me,” that reached No. 8 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1965.

We’re excited to share this with the world today 🎶

This week we’re celebrating the release of Jane McNealy’s “Country Boy,” written with her longtime friend Alice Kuhns. McNealy herself sings the elegy about a young man confronted with the emotional complexities of war.

The song is the third entry in McNealy’s archival series, “Songs from the Vault: Reel #3,” and remains one of the more poignant pieces in her songwriting catalog.

To accompany the song, Julie Flogeac created a haunting black-and-white tone poem filled with melancholy and a quiet sense of longing. It is among Flogeac’s most moving music videos, and can be viewed on the Lo-Flo Records YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/-florecords.
