Another UK based reissue label, Epsilon, also has a pair of 7" vinyl
releases hot off the press. Yann Vatiste has uncovered a couple of
songs written by Dana V. Andrews. The first, "Mr Justice" recorded by himself in 1976 on his own Davida
label and the other, "Everything's Has Got To Be Alright" recorded by Bobby Baker, also on Davida.
In 1973 aged 23, Dan V. Andrews moved to L.A. in search of fame and fortune
as a songwriter. He met David Futch in 1975 and they formed a record and
publishing company, Davida, that recorded R&B and Gospel music. They
worked with the gospel group Highland Park Community Choir from Highland
Park, MI, who had a song nominated for a Grammy Award in 1976. The
label released just five (listed) singles.
He recorded "Mr. Justice" in 1976 as a result of the social injustice
he saw in the world hoping for it to be a rallying call to unite and
vote for responsible, fair, politicians who had helping the people
foremost in their hearts. He also wrote the other Epsilon release
"Everything’s Got To Be Alright" recorded by Bobby Baker because
he had faith that eventually right will win out over wrong.
Available now on vinyl and digitally from Epsilon Records.
