this is rodney allen

the year is 1987 and he was only 17yo

the manager from this local label found him some year before while going to a pub where rodney did a live set and signed him right away

the rest isn’t history - it never took off, all that happened was one and only one solo record named happysad in which happened within one session or two where the young rodney recorded everything himself

it was limited printing being a local independent label release, so the album is very rare

it got took off or got any fame, the album is still not reissued to this day, there’s no really happy ending

well some sort of it - last year he finally came back to do some shows and play some of these songs, but it was small clubs that gathered at most what 50 people? i don’t even know it it were clubs, prolly in backstage of a pub or something

after his happysad album, he joined some band as a guitarist which got more commercial traffic but that didn’t last - he has been since driving trucks and still to this day

it’s a shame but is telling of many forgotten talented musician stories we will never hear their beautiful songs

the recording quality sucks buts it’s a vinyl rip - remember the album only got one issued on vinyl and that was it

it’s one of my favorite personal records of mine that no one know of, but it’s time for ppl to hear this diamond

i was blessed to meet lot of passionated ppl thru traveling over the world and just internet connections, one leads to another, when you’re serious n hungry bout stuff youre presented to ppl who knows more, some amazing dj goes really deep, that’s what musicians especially ones who do mixes and samples do - that’s how i heard about him, some dj plyed his stuff to me, felt in low right away

Anyone who discusses music with you knows you absolutely know your s***, so that’s no surprise. But that’s cool bro, I found the story very intriguing.
