Candles in the Rain is singer Melanie`s third album, released in 1970. The album produced Melanie`s first Top Ten single in North America, "Lay Down (Candles in the Rain)," which was inspired by the fans reaction to her performance at Woodstock. The cover of The Rolling Stones` 1967 song "Ruby Tuesday" reached the Top Ten in the United Kingdom.
The album has been re-issued on CD with bonus tracks; "Almost Like Being in Love" and "Dream Seller". Some versions of the album substitute "Alexander Beetle" for "Close To It All".
"Ruby Tuesday" was released as an EP in Australia, along with "Take Me Home", "What Have They Done to My Song, Ma" and "Peace Will Come".
