Detroit Adult Entertainment: Agent double-o-soul
August 15, 2009 at 1:49 pm | In Detroit adult entertainment | No CommentsThe Davis-Davis connection produced a mature and sophisticated catalog of songs that saw Davis’ musical prowess come to full fruition. Although the thundering mid-tempo dancer “I Must Love You” was his only release as an artist on Groovesville, Davis’ songwriting put that label on the map: he penned “I Don’t Want to Lose You” for Wilson/Mancha and “Chains of Love” — a huge regional hit — for Barnes, while Darryl Banks and Johnnie Taylor cut “I’m the One Who Really Loves You” and Jackie Beavers waxed “I Need My Baby.”
As always, Davis kept a band on the side, his latest a power trio that included himself on drums, Lyman Woodard on organ and Dennis Coffey on guitar. It all started in 1966 at Detroit’s Frolic Show Bar.
“We had the best band in town,” Coffey said in a recent interview. “No one could beat us. All the pimps, all the players, all the judges — everyone would come down. The place was packed every night.”
