Hi,
im a bit of a new guy on this here forum. no major collector but I love my obscure rekkids. anyway
I got myself a copy of one of those street sounds LP's, you know the early 60's soul comps. Im thumbing my way through the tracks on the LP and what do I come across 'half the days gone and we havent earned a penny' by none other than, Kenny Lynch of 70's variety performance fame!! Since finding this track I've always had an ear out for any of his other musical ventures. Then a few weeks later Im watching a Hammer horror, late night, bbc. Its one of those ones thats broken down into three or four mini films, you know? One of the main actors in it is none other than Roy castle, he is the lead role in one of the mini films. In this film he is a band leader, he's out in the tropics (trinidad or somewhere) He goes to this bar And who's on stage KENNY! any way the film carry's on roy hears some native tribal music and decides to play his version of it with his band Kenny warns him not to, you know you shouldnt mess with that voodoo shit. Anyway Roy ignores his warnings an starts playing out some nice afro jazz, the result of wich the whole venue he's playing gets attacked by some kinda poltergeist thingy (a bit like the beginning of space is the place) the film carries on and roy eventually dies. anybody seen it?
back to the Kennster!!
anyone know what music he's put out and if any of it is good!
or roy castle for that matter
