Candi Staton is an American soul and gospel singer, best known for her 1970 remake of Tammy Wynette's "Stand By Your Man" and her 1976 disco hit "Young Hearts Run Free".
In 2001, we got a chance to re-record all of Candi Staton's numerous hits for Marathon Music, and my friend Paul Savory. My one condition was that we got a chance to cut a brand new song on this timeless legend, and here it is. "Just When You Think It's Safe" was our attempt to recapture the wonderful magic of "Young Hearts Run Free" with a brand new but retro seventies type production, which, to my mind, succeeded admirably.
