Bob Davis was considered the finest Jazz Pianist in the world by the insiders of the industry. his playing career did not become fully known to the world because he stopped touring early on to join Hugh Hefner as music director for the Playboy Club in Chicago. He then went on to form his own management company which had such clients as The Jacksons, ike and tina Turner, Waylon Jennings, and many more. He still played later in his life, doing shows in the US and South America, and was always considered the finest of technicians.
Bob played with musicians in his quartet and trio such as Stu Anderson (father of TV's Richard Dean Anderson), Bill Blakkested, Dave Karr, Johnny Friggo, Marcel St. Laurent, and many others. He appeared on bills with Count Basie, Dave Brubeck, and was a personal favorite of Stan Kenton.
