Shahzad is a real one.
Shahzad Ismaily was born with a rare genetic disorder that led to being teased as a kid. Now he’s one of music’s most in-demand collaborators. “It’s crazy to be 51 and still have so much unresolved trauma,” he said. “That’s keeping me from making a record.” https://t.co/THc1kKVUN0

Currently enjoying Melanie’s “Gather Me” album (1971). The songs on that record go from strength to strength.
