Bobby Womack - RIP


Recommended Posts

Born Cleveland 1944.

 

We love his work as Womack & Womack, which was pretty much a family concern,  'Teardrops'  being our favourite.

 

It was known that he had been suffering from cancer and it was rumoured he had advanced Alzheimer's.

 

R.I.P.  Bobby !!

He was probably the most influential, respected and loved artist of our time

he was a hopeless junkie. 

Really, that's news to me.

Here's a nice BBC tribute to the great man:

I doubt it, he was a hopeless junkie. 

 

 

I think that's just a little bit harsh, missunderstood !

 

Many many top musicians have tinkered with drunks, especially from his era.

 

70 isn't a bad age.  If he's been a 'hopeless junkie', I'm sure he would have died many years ago.
