Donna Cristy - Hold Me Close (J-vibe & Frankie Medina) 1997

When we brought Donna into the studio, we were excited about working with her. Unfortunately, the track was never released and remained on DAT tape for the next 11 years. Now, in 2008 I present a clip of that track. It was supposed to be released on Soundshaft, but we passed it over to a label. The A&R people were really loving the track and were ready to sign her. The owner of that label didn't see it. He didn't feel it was a "hot" track and had some personal issues with it. We waited over 7 months and the label did nothing. We became so frustrated that we shelved the project and moved on. At least now, I'd like to share at least a clip of the track. Maybe we can released soon......

Donna sang on some songs I had written. She is the best singer I ever worked with. A great expressive voice and a real pro. She sang a song I wrote called, "Life Is Learning How To Walk" I still pull it out from time to time and marvel at her wonderful voice.

This would have been a hit... Nothing lost, you guys have more to come! Much more I can see.
