Trevor Dandys revelatory soul/gospel album Dont Cry Little Tree is about as close to the bottom of the dustbin as you can get. A collaboration between the budding producer Paul J. Zaza and the Jamaican-born Dandy, this devilishly tough-to-find LP was pressed up in a tiny run of 2,000, supposedly for sale to Dandys church congregation. But, as Zaza remembers it was a disagreement between Dandy and the church that helped contribute to the discs cachet amongst collectors He had a beef with the church and they basically excommunicated him, and so most of those records ended up in my fathers garage, recalls a rather affable Zaza. Fast forward to the eighties and I have to clean out the place. I had all these boxes of records, so I just dumped them in a dumpster
No one seems to know what happened to Dandy - the one-time Toronto resident has been missing in action for the better part of four decades. He did come around to see me in the eighties but after that, who knows? I think he was down in St. Louis for a few decades. As for the talented Zaza after brief stints in the musical Hair and on tour with the 5th Dimension, he would go on to parlay his classical training into a fruitful career as a soundtrack composer, winning a Genie
for his score to the 1979 thriller Murder by Decree. Is There Any Love? was of course dug up and sampled by the likes of Kid Cudi, Monsters of Folk and Ghostface Killah, among others, and included on the Numero Groups excellent comp Good God: A Gospel Funk Hymnal.
