Candies 1½: Sweet Little Devil) is the eighth studio album by Japanese idol trio Candies, released through CBS Sony on April 21, 1977. It contains the singles " Aishū no Symphony" and " Yasashii Akuma". Side B features covers of popular western songs while Side C consists of songs written individually by the trio.
