RR-04

More unreleased demo funk recorded around 1986 by Davinity band members Tim Tucker and Fred White. Tim wrote "Love Passed Me By" for Veronica to sing including some of his own vocal sketches in the demo. A version by the female singer never materialized, but we were able to rescue this one from a decaying cassette and give this funk track new life.
 Freddie "Fonk" White is a talented musician/producer who currently plays bass in Lenny Williams' touring band. He recorded the late night instrumental "Captured" while part of the Davinity band in the mid 80s.

 first 50 copies with limited picture cover (sold out). total pressing limited to 300 copies only. released October 2012.
