Lyrics:

My watch said it was a quarter 'ta two
But it was really gettin' closer to 4, yeah
Well I laid my head down easy
When somebody knocked at my door

I don't know just what I expected
But it was more than I bargained for, oh yeah
There stood the devil at the foot of my bed
And I fell out, oh-ho, on the floor

Well his skin was the color of fire
He had a voice like a lions roar, oh-ho yeah
He said you'll never see your baby again
Cause you ain't goin' home any more, Lord have mercy

Well your telephone call saved me
I was awakened by the bell, yeah
And it ain't the first time pretty baby
That you saved this man for hell, all right

Kal David

Born and raised in Chicago, Kal’s recording career began as a teenager when, as a member of Kal David and the Exceptions, he was signed to a contract with King Records and later to Vee-Jay Records. Another member of the group was Peter Cetera, who later became the vocalist for a band known as Chicago.

Later on, Kal joined musical forces with guitarist Paul Cotton to form the group, The Rovin’ Kind. This band recorded for Dunwich Records, and following a name change to Illinois Speed Press and a move to Los Angeles, Kal and Paul hit their stride, recording two critically acclaimed albums for Columbia Records, Illinois Speed Press and Duet. ISP was so loved that these albums have recently been re-released on CD by popular demand.

Kal and Paul’s efforts with Illinois Speed Press served them well, for as Paul went on to become guitarist for Poco, Kal moved to Woodstock, New York, where he formed the Fabulous Rhinestones with ex-Electric Flag bassist Harvey Brooks. They recorded three well-received albums: Fabulous Rhinestones, Freewheelin’ for Paramount Records, and Rhinestones for 20th Century Records.

With the Rhinestones, Kal refined his talents as a guitarist, vocalist, and songwriter to the point where even today, long after its disbanding, the group is remembered with fondness and respect for its musical contributions. Their albums have also been re-released on CD.

In the 80’s Kal David made his true commitment to the #blues idiom as a guitarist and as a singer/songwriter. In the studio or on tour, his commitment was evident in his work as a featured guitarist for Etta James, Johnny Rivers and with John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers, where he inherited the lead guitar chair from Mick Taylor.

As a solo artist Kal David recorded two albums for SoulCoast Records, Never a Dull Moment and Double Tuff. With chart topping, impressive record sales internationally and numerous television appearances, including a one-hour Kal David special in Germany, Kal’s reputation grew worldwide.

A move to Palm Springs, CA in search of a more creative environment resulted in Blue Guitar, Kal and partner Lauri Bono’s premier #Blues and Jazz nightclub, which they successfully ran and performed at for 8 years much to the delight of audiences from all over the world. Three CDs, Kal David Live at Blue Guitar….by request, Kal David Live at Blue Guitar….Last Call and Lauri Bono featuring Kal David Live at Blue Guitar…Last Call were recorded there. Blue Guitar was sold in 2004 to accomodate Kal’s upward spiraling career.

Kal’s dedication to the proliferation of the #music he loves has inspired him to pass along his knowledge and experience to the younger generations. He gives lectures and raises funds whenever possible to put instruments and music back in the schools. “Every child should have the right and access to #music education. It is a proven fact that it helps in all other aspects of learning. Music defines our lives and lights the fire of passion.” In another teaching endeavor, Kal’s very popular Guitar
Master Classes are fueling the fire for a lot of new and established guitar players. “It is incredibly wonderful and satisfying to share my years of learning and passion for what I do with a class and know that I have made a difference in their lives!”

To fully experience #Kal David’s tremendous talent, you must see him live. Kal’s soul-baring voice along with his blazing guitar playing will provide you with an unparalleled electrifying performance!
