Midnight Moonlight and You" was written over 30 years ago and has a storied history. Way back in the 90's I had a music management company with Jim Saxon called "Calvin James Music." We were really excited because we just signed Giorge Pettus, a great R&B pop singer who had a record deal with MCA Records and they were working on his album. What he needed was a hit song! Jim and I got together with songwriter Tom Campbell in my living room and wrote "Midnight Moonlight and You." We thought it was a real banger and the record label would love it. So, Jim and I flew out to LA and met with Louil Silas. At that time he was MCA Records executive producer for Babyface, Bobby Brown, Sheena Easton, Pebbles, Patti LaBelle, and Giorge Pettus. When we told him about "Midnight Moonlight and You" he said had already given the last of the budget to the Isley brothers to finish Giorge's album. Disappointed, we gave him the song anyway but I doubt he ever listened to it.
That night we were invited to the Isley Brothers studio session with Giorge and hung out with Ron and Marvin Isley as well as Angela Winbush. We all shared a fast food dinner as they recorded Giorge’s vocal tracks. Unfortunately the song they produced wasn't a hit for Giorge and that was his last album with MCA records.
Decades later I came across "Midnight Moonlight and You" in my archives and thought maybe Mr MooQ should give it a go. Excited, I called Jim Saxon and we put together a modern version of the song. I then hired Chuck Zwicky to do the arrangement and oversee the production. Finally after all these years, here's "Midnight Moonlight and You!"
Since Giorge and Tom are no longer with us I dedicate this song to them for all the fun we shared. Miss you guys!
