A Louisiana native, Bobby wrote songs for the likes of Fats Domino ("Walkin To New Orleans"), Bill Haley ("See You Later Alligator"), and Clarence Frogman Henry ("I Don't Know Why But I Do"). He was later asked to join The Band for their legendary Last Waltz farewell concert where he performed "Down South In New Orleans". Bobby just recently passed away in his hometown of Abbeville, LA. Here is his self titled album with all the members of The Band (minus Robby) and Dr. John as back up. Hats off to a Louisiana legend.
