Heart Food is the second album released by American singer/songwriter and musician Judee Sill. It was released on David Geffen's Asylum label in 1973 to acclaim but minimal sales. Sill wrote, arranged, and produced the album, with influences from Bach and Ray Charles. Songs like "The Kiss" reflect her fascination with hymnal, Christian imagery, while others, notably "Soldier of the Heart," feature much fuller arrangements. In 2004, it was reissued by Rhino Records, featuring new liner notes and extra demos and unreleased tracks.
