Background notes
Archive material and source history
Nicholas David was a singer-songwriter from Detroit whose music reflected the city's Motown and R&B traditions. In 1971, he released the album 'What's Going On,' with its title track becoming a widely recognized song about social issues of that time.
His recordings included songs like 'Put Your Records On,' 'Lean On Me,' and 'Stand By Me,' which showed his approach to soulful vocal performances. He worked with musicians including bassist Marvin Isley and drummer James Gadson.
Some of his material faced radio restrictions, but he continued recording through the 1970s and into the 1980s. Other artists have since performed his songs, keeping his music in circulation.
