Description: | Kenny Lynch was a popular singer, songwriter, actor and all-round entertainer. A self-styled 'black cockney', Kenny was one of the few people of Caribbean origin prominent in the British entertainment industry during the '60s and '70s. During his musical career, Kenny released a number of Top 10 singles, including a version of 'Up on the Roof' (1962), competing with the original by the Drifters. He composed and co-wrote songs recorded by Dusty Springfield, Cilla Black, the Drifters and the Everly Brothers. He also worked briefly as a songwriter at the Brill Building in New York.Whilst probably best known as a prolific Pop Crooner during the earlier part of his acting and musical career, we must not forget his stomping disco success of the early eighties, released under British-borne Satril Records. 'Half The Day's Gone, and We Haven't Earne'd a Penny' was a milestone moment for British Disco. Produced by Kenny himself at Satril Studios, London 1983, this record still encompasses that organic late-70s disco sound, with true instrumentation and minimalist electronic synth elements. This is the album's first ever repress since 1983 and has been remastered in high-definition from the original analogue tapes. Pressed on heavyweight 180g vinyl, this is one not to be missed. Limited to 500 copies only. A Record Store Day 2022 release, now available to all.Record Store Day Release |
