A Few Words about David, the Artist…

Throughout David Kaffinetti’s colorful and storied career on stage and screen he has always seen life as a pallet of colors that he interpreted musically which has led him to a great success in life.

Now he has taken that same inspiration and applied it to his love of “Doodles”. Having finally decided to dedicate himself to this love, he has produced a limited series of his art for sale. He lets the moment take and move him, with no borders or other limitations.

Some or many of you may know David from his role in “This Is Spinal Tap” where he played the effusive character and band keyboardist “Viv Savage”. And of course his famous quote “Have a good time, all the time”.

David has been playing in bands since the 60’s, which include stints with Rare Bird where he played on their big hit “Sympathy”, FRESH, Quicksilver Messenger Service as well as recording live with CHUCK BERRY on the London Sessions, album.

From those recordings they chose Johnny B. Goode to include on the gold record sent into deep space aboard the Voyager probe in 1977.

“Performing has been the joy of my life”

Today David calls the San Francisco Bay Area home where when he is not quietly doodling away he plays with his longtime band SEZU as well as sitting in with any number of stellar local acts.

If you ever have a chance to see or hear David play please come up and say, hello!

Until then – ‘Have A Good Time, All the Time’
