all the older guests are more interesting and informative like this man.Good show

Well, you can converse back and forth as to Clive's contribution to music...but nobody can doubt that he was part of an industry that took nearly complete advantage of thousands of young, talented, ignorant, motivated artists. All sides must be made available to fairly assess his place in music.

Clive Davis:The Soundtrack Of Our Lives is an awesome documentary. I knew who he was but didn't know his story.Totally cool guy and it was totally worth watching. For a guy who can't play any instruments and no real musical background,his musical ear and intuition is like Steve said "Incredible".

Legend is used too cheaply today. In Clive's case it's insufficient to describe his awesome contribution. And he's still going. Amazing, amazing, amazing.

Early 60's he started as a lawyer for CBS records. Then the bosses let him deal with all the new artists on the label. That way he started to sign bands and JANIS JOPLIN.

He signed the Grateful Dead, and they had a hit single.

I always just assumed Bruce played "Spirits In the Night" for John Hammond and that song was so undeniable he got signed on the strength of it alone. He invests in rap...hip hop last 25 years? He can't find quality new rockers? Fuck that that silly old man.

I find him to be very intriguing and intelligent.

Clive Davis's formula was just find a unique voice and match it with great writers, arrangers and producers.
