The only other thing I know about Lynch is that he must have been a buddy of Paul McCartney.
Along with actor Christopher Lee ( ), Lynch was on the cover of the "Band On The Run" LP. |

Kenny Lynch is a very underrated figure in sixties/seventies music....
An accomplished songwriter, Kenny can be heard singing the High Harmony Vocal on The Small Faces hit single version of his song "Sha La La La Lee"....(1966)
as The Late Great Steve Marriott said : "Kenny had to sing it as none of us could get up that high....!"
Kenny also wrote "You Better Believe it" ,and "Sorry She's Mine" (both 1966) recorded by The Small Faces... |

The songwriting team of Tony Hicks and Kenny Lynch did have a hit single in the US: The Hollies' "Long Dark Road" made No. 24 on the Cashbox Magazine chart, No. 26 on the Billboard chart in Nov. 1972. |

Kenny Lynch is featured in the 1965 horror film "Dr. Terror's House of Horrors" where he performs a song and has a bit of dialogue as well. |

I thought that was Kenny Lynch but wasn't 100% sure. |

UK fans should keep an eye out for a Budget Kenny Lynch Album on the old EMI "Music For Pleasure" label : "We Like Kenny" (MFP 1022)
This has eleven tracks in Mono, including Kenny's fine more uptempo version of Lennon/McCartney's Beatles song "Misery", plus covers of Ben E.King's "Stand By Me" and Burt Bacharach's "The Story Behind My Tears" among others....
plus five of Kenny's own songs too....
The tracks are all from the 1961 - 1964 period. |

Thereīs also a very good Kenny Lynch-compilation named Nothing but the real thing, The best of 1960-1969. Itīs released in 2004 by RPM. 24 tracks incl. all his singles during the period.
He worked with great musicians like Arthur Greenslade, Mort Shuman and Johnny Scott. Of course most of the music is written by himself. |
