Ay Fond Kiss is the second and final studio album released by British group Fairground Attraction. It was released on 18 June 1990. The title is a misspelling of the Robert Burns poem "Ae Fond Kiss", which lead singer Eddi Reader also covered on her 2003 album Sings the Songs of Robert Burns. The album consists mostly of unreleased recordings and B-sides to previously released singles.[5] The album was also released after Reader had left the group. It peaked at number 55 in the UK Albums Chart.[6]
The album features cover versions of several songs, including Sam Cooke's "You Send Me" (which was previously released as the B-side to the group's hit single "Find My Love"), Donny Hathaway's "Tryin Times", Patsy Cline's "Walkin' After Midnight" and The Beatles "Do You Want to Know a Secret?" as well as Robert Burns "Ae Fond Kiss" and a few other traditional songs.
The only single to be released from the album was "Walkin' After Midnight". It peaked at number 97 on the UK Singles Chart.[7]
