    Could discomusic.com interview John Davis?

    I was wondering if discomusic.com could interview disco legend John Davis? I have found him on Facebook and he replied to me so he is out there! However, he did not reply to my follow up email asking if he has his music on cd since for some bizarre reason there is NO John Davis and the Monster Orchestra disc.Either he doesn't go on too much...or hes ignoring me! So I don't know the logistics of how you arrange an interview but I really would like to know more about this man and his incredible, underrated music.Thanks.

    Re: Could discomusic.com interview John Davis?

    perhaps it's a painful subject. But since it appears that CDs have taken a serious dip in popularity and sales I'm sure not waiting for my favorite titles to appear on CD, especially the more obscure titles. But much of Davis' work as an arranger and writer IS available on CDs by Carole Douglas ("Midnight Love Affair"), his wonderful work with Ashford and Simpson ("Is It Still Good To Ya?") and the "Beverly Hills 90210" soundtrack. There are probably others also, but those are only the ones I'm aware of.

    Yes I love the "Midnight Love Affair" album. Not too interested in the 90210 soundtrack.So far I have got stuff from him on compilations: Disco Discharge had "Love Magic" and "Holler" and "Bourgie Bourgie" is coming up,I have the whole "Aint That Enough For You" album ripped on to cd, and "I Cant Stop" on a Dimitri From Paris disc.But I just think its crazy a hits album has never been released. I would think as an artist,you would have your stuff made on to a cd for fans to buy,not just for his sake in selling them, but for the simple fact that with the Internet there are ways to sell your cds without putting them in a whole heap of shops with limited appeal.Sell it on a site like this...after an interview reminds fans of his music...wink.
