I was glad to see this, my dad and Mr. Davis were good friends when he lived on the west side of Chicago. My Dad is 81, still sharp in memory.

[@genevieveharris1120]

My mother use to play his songs over and over on our old record player. Her favorite was the turning point. She played that song so much the record starting skipping. Lol😂😂 we was happy cause we was tired listening to that song.

[@billo5065]

You'll be amazed at the amount of musicians originally from Mississippi, Sam Cooke, David Ruffin, Otis Clay, to name a few

I love Tyrone Davis to death. I have been listening to Tyrone since I was about 10-yrs old.... I will never forget that voice of his...... Tyrone's music 🎵🎶🎶 played a very vital point in my life growing up as a young kid. His songs has a lot to do with my growing up as a young teenager. 💯 I have purchased a lot of his music down through the years. During my (" MILITARY") days especially. The day came to me when I found out he had passed on from this world 🌎. It was a hard stiff pain in my heart. ❤️💜... It bought tears in my heart. One would have thought I lost a close family member. It really threw me a curve ball..🥲 I just couldn't believe he was gone.... I still get water 💦 in my eyes from time to time when I hear one of his songs..♥️💦🥲. You would think I was his cousin or something. May the Grace of ("GOD") surround him... RIP My dear brother Tyrone..🙏✝️♥️💦

[@earnestharper1622]

Thanks for sharing Tyrone Davis' history. This artist is an example of SOUL, something black people are losing in their music.

[@bransonbelcher4931]

This is going to have to be a twenty-year anniversary of his death in 2005 and his legacy is still going strong and he will never be forgotten by his family and his band and his fans will forever remember Tyrone Davis as a legend and his music will always be remembered as a tribute to Tyrone Davis in his memory of Tyrone Davis!

That was the Man since “Can I Change My Mind” in 1968!! There was no other as far as record buying women until Al Green came along. he represented Chicago soul straight through til disco came along in 1977-78.

[@sheilafort2193]

True story... back in the day a friend of mine had invited me to a Club and we were sitting at the bar. There was a man, that walked up to us while sitting and had a brief conversation with us... asking us how we were doing and if we are enjoying ourselves... After the man, left my friend looked over to me and said... you know who that is right? I, responded No... he, said that's Tyrone Davis. I, was so surprised because he was so approachable and down to earth.

[@larryjones1746]

This is the greatest soul singer in the world , the Dells , Chi Lights nor Sam Cook even Otis Redding could not out song this man ok Johnny Taylor came close my life after 50 years is shaped by songs same as Rev Ike teaching and may God bless this channel for remembering great black people🎉❤🎉❤

[@corrynthiaiam9205]

Can I change My Mind, Turns Back the Hands of Time & Sure Wasnt Me are my 3 favorite songs from Tyrone Davis! Johnny Taylor, Marvin Sease & Tyrone Davis were THE TRUTH! My family play songs like that when the family get together.

[@marvinwhittaker]

I have almost all of his music. My two favorite albums of his is "I Can't Go On This Way" release in 1978, "In The Mood With Tyrone Davis" released in 1979 which I have on CDs. I met him inside of a record store in 1999. I have all of his Columbia LPs releases on CDs. And I have all of his Malaco CD releases. "Get On Up (Disco)" is my all time favorite song of his.

Tyrone got to the point he didn't need a hit all he had to do was show up in your town and the people would come to the show. I saw him Johnny Taylor and Bobby Womack what a show all were very good but JT was the show stopper.

How could Tyrone Davis be called " The king Of Chicago Soul " with so many greater artists with far more hits and impact than Tyrone Davis ? Three far greater artists come to mind immediately, Curtis Mayfield (with or without the Impressions ), R Kelly, and Donny Hathaway. There were others with far more hits like Jerry Butler and of course Lou Rawls, but to add further proof I will name the person considered by many to be the " The Greatest Artist of All Time no matter the genre " Sam Cooke!

[@phillipmarlowe0525]

Honestly, I’ve never heard of him. I worked up one of his songs and saw a name that I wash my hair with they provided back up. The man is Eugene Records. He’s a founding member of the Chi Lites, the Chi Lites have one original members still alive. I’m in the Marshall Thompson years ago Mr. Thompson was arrested for extortion, and had to serve. I think a year to two years in prison. Be illegally sold badges and bribed cops and charged $2500.00 for them and this allowed them to carry guns. Many were convicted felons.
