He was discovered by a saxophone player in Buddy Miles’ jazz band who was dating his sister while Davis was playing at a club. Miles flew Davis to New York City to audition and hired him on the spot.〔
Davis played in New York City clubs and met Soul Train producer Don Cornelius through a mutual friend, Ron Kersey. According to Davis, Davis made many of his contacts in R&B through Cornelius. "…if you were a black musician in the business of making R&B and soul music and wanted to get on television, you had to go through Don Cornelius," he said.〔
His association with Cornelius lead him to co-writing the Soul Train theme,''Soul Train's A-Comin. Davis has worked for Grammy award winning singer Chaka Khan as a session and touring bassist in addition to music director. He’s also worked with jazz artists including Lee Ritenour and Patti Austin, as well as R&B notables Gladys Knight & The Pips and The Pointer Sisters as well as former Roxy Music frontman and glam rock/new wave musician Bryan Ferry.〔
