David Raskin (born in Chicago on 15 June 1943; died 16 August 2022), who performed as Kal David, was an American blues guitarist, singer and songwriter. Raskin’s recording career began as a teenager when, with his band, Kal David and the Exceptions, he was signed to a contract with King Records and later to Vee-Jay Records (another member of the group was Peter Cetera, who later became the vocalist for the band known as Chicago).Later on, Raskin joined musical forces with guitarist Paul Cotton to form the group, The Rovin’ Kind. This band recorded for Dunwich Records, and, following a name change to Illinois Speed Press and a move to Los Angeles, Raskin and Cotton recorded two albums for Columbia Records, Illinois Speed Press and Duet (the former re-released on CD).Raskin then moved to Woodstock, New York, (while Cotton went on to become guitarist for Poco) where he formed The Fabulous Rhinestones with ex-Electric Flag bassist Harvey Brooks. They recorded three albums: Fabulous Rhinestones, Freewheelin’ for Paramount Records, and Rhinestones for 20th Century Records.In the 80s, Raskin worked as a featured guitarist for Etta James, Johnny Rivers and with John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers, where he inherited the lead guitar role from Mick Taylor.As a solo artist Raskin recorded two albums for SoulCoast Records, Never a Dull Moment and Double Tuff.A move to Palm Springs, CA, resulted in Blue Guitar, Kal and partner Lauri Bono’s premier Blues and Jazz nightclub, which they successfully ran and performed at for eight years. Three CDs, Kal David Live at Blue Guitar….by request, Kal David Live at Blue Guitar….Last Call and Lauri Bono featuring Kal David Live at Blue Guitar…Last Call were recorded there. Blue Guitar was sold in 2004.Raskin’s dedication to the proliferation of the music he loved inspired him to pass along his knowledge and experience to the younger generations. He gave lectures and raised funds whenever possible to put instruments and music back in the schools. “Every child should have the right and access to music education. It is a proven fact that it helps in all other aspects of learning. Music defines our lives and lights the fire of passion.” “It is incredibly wonderful and satisfying to share my years of learning and passion for what I do with a class and know that I have made a difference in their lives!”
