A famous American songwriter has died
 

Bob Dorough, one of the most recognized song writers of our time died today at 99.

Most of you guys my age know how a bill becomes a law, or what the conjunction 's function is because of him. I remembered a noun is a person place or thing as a kid because of him.

RIP.

When I was a kid trying to learn that stuff ...... we didn't have a TV ....... so, I missed his shows .....:(



humfrz

Every guy in US my age knows his work, unless you didn't have a tv.

RIP Bob. My hero, zero.

How wonderful you are

Had a few other favorites, but can't find them online....

Who?

A very popular dude, old farts are on grieves

Loved his vocabulary, his songs had purpose and gave meaning to thought. Much unlike the slanderous poetry of 4 letter words that lights the speakers of every radio station these days.

Hey little twelve toes...

The sort of old farts do. I was already a teenager when the series came out so although I am familiar with it there isn't the same level of nostalgia as the guys a couple of years younger.

That one was only played in Alabama
