Clive Davis, the god of A&R, has died at 94. The guy signed Janis Joplin and Alicia Keys and a metric shit tonne of artists in between. That’s a hell of a career.
No one is going to believe me but I had lunch with Clive Davis and a client at a Denny's in Nashville. I'm going to keep the details to myself about the meeting but it is a true story.
