The Professor’s back! Remember Me was written on a bus ride back to Camden, composed and arranged by Davis, in March of ‘79. The first three tune gig Gary got with Peter Brown, the plea for requited love; Remember Me was recorded at the fabled Sound Ideas Studio in midtown Manhattan. Davis plays on all instruments: bass, keyboard, strings… everything except session musician Michael Campbell’s drums came out of Davis’ hands.
Gary grew up in the cool shade of his uncle, Richard Groove Holmes, and learned the “left hand bass” style on the B3. In his sessions, Peter was encouraging experimentation with the newest instrument trends. Gary responded to Brown’s encouragement and the lesson of his uncle’s broadened use of keys. If you can replace the bass player with your left hand then what were your keyboards’ limits?
This record is one of Gary’s favorites and further illuminates the transitional period between Disco that clung to traditional song structure and the appearance of freer dance music with softer borders and hypnotic cinematic themes… a sound that would soon catch the ear of a young Kenny Dope. The Master was once the student - and where’d he get his foundation? Remember the Professor. |
