DESCRIPTION:
Roger and Ray Davis recording session for Kareem's NBA music video tribute "I'm So Happy"

See my Kareem Tribute Video: I'm So Happy to hear the finished song.

NBA Entertainment and Warner Bros. selected Roger to perform the song that I wrote for Kareem Abdul Jabbar's Music Video tribute. This was the third and final NBA music video tribute that I made. I started a fourth project, one for Majic Johnson but that project never saw completion.

The late Ray Davis was talented singer who was the original bass singer and one of the founding members of The Parliaments, Parliament and Funkadelic. He also performed in The Original P which consisted of four founding members of Parliament, and he was briefly in The Temptations. Davis replaced the original bass singer of the Temptations Melvin Franklin on the album For Lovers Only and was in the group after Franklin's death in 1995. Davis left the group after being diagnosed with throat cancer. In later years, he performed with former Temptation Glenn Leonard in Leonard's group, The Temptations Experience. Davis died on the evening of Tuesday, July 5, 2005, of respiratory problems.

I hope you enjoy this behind the scenes footage of Roger and Ray.
