 Finding my niche in the music industry

has taken some time. Call me the “Idea Man,” since that’s where a song starts. When you can give an idea to 5 or 6 gifted lyricists, it makes my job of writing the music so easy. You can find out more under the Opportunity for Lyricist tab.

When I was in my early 20s, I didn’t think I was going to get anywhere, but looking back at the last 50 years, I can say I really did do a lot. I was just too young and living too fast to recognize the growth.

I was part of a comedy team called Morris and Porter when I was 24. In August of 1968, we were on a tour of Japan, Okinawa, Bangkok, Taipei, Taiwan, Vietnam, and the Philippines doing two and three shows a day. What an honor it was talking with and entertaining the women & men serving! One the highlights was opening for the Supremes at Clark Air Force Base.

At 27, I was playing in Palm Springs, California, at Gillies Restaurant. Frank Sinatra and his daughter were having dinner and enjoying the music I played. I thought Frank and Nancy came to hear me, but later I was told that Frank actually was part owner of the club.

I tell you this part of the story because I am writing a book, and I today realized I was living so fast that I actually was 8 or 10 years ahead of where I should’ve been. Now, for the first time, I’m actually living in the present. I realized that music I was performing—songs by Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, James Brown, Conway Twitty, Ernest Tub, Johnny Cash, Peter, Paul and Mary, John Denver, Aretha Franklin, The Beatles —were exactly what was happening, day by day.

But most of my early song writing came from my heart and feelings and true stories. I hope you enjoy them, but today I’m actually writing because I understand the pain of others and what they’re going through; in other words, it’s not all about me.

Presently, I’m working with six other lyricists, connecting with many different platforms, musicians, music supervisors, and organizations like iTunes, Amazon, Song Cast, as well as movies, TV, and four recording studios in Fort Myers, Nashville, Tucson, and Seattle. 

Our goal is to present the very best original songs for major artists, TV programs, and movies.

 

Explore Our Past

This group of pictures starts with the Morris & Porter comedy team at the Mt. Airy Lodge on the east coast, then on to Mount Poconos, New York, and Connecticut. From there I went on playing as a single act Dave Porter to the west coast, stopping at  Palm Springs, San Diego, Vallejo, and then a trip far north to Seattle.
