HAYLEY RECORDS is proud to distribute a profile of one of Detroit’s
finest talents – MELVIN DAVIS.
This comprehensive collection showcases his incredible talent as
singer, writer, producer and musician from his earliest recordings
in the 1960s until the present day. The mega rare “Find
a quiet place”, crowd pleaser “I
must love you” and his version of “Chains
of love” are all here plus previously unreleased Davis
compositions for other artists like “I’m
the one who loves you” and “I
need my baby”.
The Mala and Invictus recordings
are here too, and feature his tenure as lead singer of the 8th Day
on the hits “You’ve got to crawl”,
“Eeny meeny miny mo”
and the beautiful “You made me over”. Davis’ own
Rock Mill label contributes six songs in total, including his own
version of “Thinking of you”,
now available for the first time, and the sublime “Double
or nothing”.
19 tracks of top quality soul, spanning
the decades and telling it like it is! Take
a listen.
