Alan Rhody's music is the culmination of a life of traveling and staying true to one's beliefs and to one's art. He has spent two and a half decades writing and singing with the passion of someone who is not only highly gifted but who is also driven to create. In the process, he has built a devoted following, while having his poignant ballads, picturesque narratives and gutsy rockers recorded by a who's who of country-pop, folk, and bluegrass.
His new CD, "Rhody In Black & White", is a 32-year retrospective ranging from Alan's beginnings in the Canadian folk scene of the early seventies with, "My Kentucky" through his own versions of his songs that have been made into hits and recorded by some of the biggest artists in folk, country and bluegrass including Del McCoury, Kevin Welch,
Murray McLauchlan, Lorrie Morgan, Tanya Tucker, Ricky Van Shelton and The Oak Ridge Boys.
The collection is also drawn from his own releases
Stop The Rain (1981), Border Crossings (1986), Dreamer's
World (1992), From A Real Good Home (1995), and
Pieces Of Essence (2000). 21 songs in all!
