"Love and Kisses" is the second album released by pop group Brotherhood of Man.

This album was originally released in Europe in 1975, without "Save Your Kisses for Me", but with another song, "Tugging" in its place. In some countries it was released as "Save Your Kisses for Me" in 1976, with "Tugging", but without "Love Me for What I Am" [ [http://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/brotherhood_of_man/save_your_kisses_for_me/ "Save Your Kisses for Me" album] ] [ [http://www.austriancharts.at/showitem.asp?key=81600&cat=a "Save Your Kisses for Me" album info] ]

The album was released in April 1976 on Pye Records and featured the singles "Kiss Me Kiss Your Baby" and "Save Your Kisses for Me". Album track "Be My Loving Baby" was released as a single in Belgium in 1975. In the US, "Sweet Lady from Georgia" was released as the follow-up to "Save Your Kisses for Me". This was the only country to release a follow-up from this album. [ [http://www.fortunecity.com/tinpan/sunra/953/indexen.html European singles discography] ]

Somewhat curiously, the UK version of this album contained the same cover photo as had been on their first album, released two years previously.
