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. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuring 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhilst 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. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the album’s first ever re-press since 1983 and has been remastered in high-definition from the original analogue tapes. Pressed on heavyweight trans-colour vinyl, this is one not to be missed. =\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Satril","offers":[{"title":"White | LP","offer_id":50466862891339,"sku":"1145727","price":21.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/75153347-cf5e-4d71-aa0a-22826fbdd6f1_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727326651","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/fr\/products\/half-the-day-s-gone-and-we-haven-t-earne-d-a-penny","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
