"For those fans who are willing to get more of Chris Willis, this is the news, he has being making the vocals for David Guetta a French DJ/Producer of Electronic music. David Guetta met the Gospel singer Chris Willis on France while he was on a vacation, since then, they have worked together releasing the smash hits "Just A Little More Love" from 2001 "Love, Don't Let Me Go" from 2002, "People Come People Go" from 2002. On 2003 Guetta released new remixes of "Just A Little More Love" with Willis vocals. Then Guetta released on 2004 "Money" and "Stay" both with the vocals of Chris Willis. In 2006 "Love Don't Let Me Go (Walking Away)" was released again with new remixes. All these releases had the vocal performances of Chris Willis, but they were released under the name of David Guetta. However in year 2006 Chris Willis released now under his own name the production named "My Freedom" produced by David Guetta & Joachim Garraud, this hit peaked the position 25 on the "Hot Dance Club Play" Chart of the famous Billboard Magazine. There were several other backing vocals performances and releases of Gospel and electronic music in collaborations for other artists, like Mary Griffin hits "Never Give Up On Love" and "You Light Up My Life". So Mr. Willis has been busy after all. I hope this helped the fans that would like to track some other works of the wonderful voice of Chris Willis.

A long-awaited encore

"I would like, for just a part of this review, to address Chris, his producers etc:



It is my distinct view Chris, that you have stayed away for far too long, denying us your talent. The self-titled album was an all-round great. There is NO TRACK on the album that was not a blessing, in voice, in song, in lyrics. When I replay it, even after the years, it starts me a-humming; and realising all over again, that your voice is just so clear; your range so wonderful; and the music so original.



Four years ago, in November 2002 I wrote a review about the album when I first chanced upon it, and have been on the lookout for a followup from Chris ever since. I was so excited at discovering Chris. My question is: is my looking, my waiting, in vain? Several times I even tried to order the album as gifts to share with others but could not - out of stock. Now, that was a real pity. Even now I am still so moved to do so, and to share Chris with friends.



I refuse to believe that Chris does not have material for a second album; that producers, having heard what he can do, do not get in line to work with him; or that a church is keeping him so busy!



It may be few years ago, but I remember Chris' album as though it were the other day.



I just hope that fans will come together and flood the mail box with requests for more! Note, that in 2006, I am trying to keep it all alive....."

Extraordinary Talent

"I had the pleasure of seeing Chris Willis perform at a conference in Estes Park several years ago, and am still completely taken with his enormous talent as both an impeccable vocalist and a prolific writer. I was fortunate enough to hear a couple of songs that weren't on this album and recall them being even better than the ones one this album. I sincerely hope someone picks him up to publish additional work. The world is missing out. As for this album, it is a nice mix of styles from soulful to upbeat. My favorite song on the album is "Home" and it is easily one of the best songs I have ever had the pleasure of hearing. I am a vocalist and professional voice teacher and can unquestionably say that Chris' vocals are truly exceptional and will impress everyone who gets to hear him. What a brilliant mastery of God's gifts. Buy this album and get several more copies for your friends."
