THE BOOK: LABOUR OF LOVE Created in conjunction with the editor and design team behind Disco Pogo, Labour Of Love is our first-ever book and serves as a brilliantly rich and varied document of Be With's first 10 years. It surveys our entire catalog with the artwork for every single release faithfully reproduced in full color accompanied by Rob's inimitable reviews. The book contains fresh, exclusive interviews with Ned Doheny, Leon Ware, Lewis Taylor, Tommy Guerrero, Wally Badarou, Steve Moore, Pete Fowler, Kimiko Kasai, Tony Henry (52nd Street), The Autumn Defense, Coastlines, and The Mighty Soulmates. There are also fantastic contributions from a whole host of well-regarded fans of the label. We have Gilles Peterson on Ned, Trevor Jackson on Nucleus, Efficient Space on Steve Hiett and the joy of collaboration in a competitive industry, Bill Brewster on Marti Caine, Balearic Mike on Kylie, and Lou Hayter on her beloved Air. We explore the development of the Be With logo and also take an insider's look at the journey of a typical Be With record; from the mastering stage with Simon Francis, cutting it up with Cicely Balston, the artwork ordeals with Chris Stevenson, pressing matters with Record Industry, slinging product with ace distributors Word And Sound, stocking product with our favorite London record shop When Spaceships Appear and even packing records for direct orders with our very own Funky Paramedic.
