Very Extremely Dangerous is the debut album by the American musician Eddie Hinton, released in 1978.[1][2] It had sold around 20,000 copies before Capricorn Records filed for bankruptcy.[3] Hinton had intended to tour behind it with his backing band, the Rocking Horses.[4]
The album was rereleased in 1997 as part of the Capricorn Classics series.[5] Demos of some of the songs were released in 2000 on the Dear Y'all compilation.[6]
Recorded in 1977, the album was produced by Barry Beckett and recorded at Muscle Shoals Sound Studio.[7][8][9] Hinton was backed by the Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section.[10] He wrote or cowrote all the songs aside from "Shout Bamalama", a cover of the Otis Redding song.[11][3] "We Got It" is a paean to Hinton's wife, Sandra.[12]
