Bobby had an album out in 1969 called "Margie's At the Lincoln Park Inn and Other Controversial Songs." He did his share of those (controversial), the gist of which I didn't get on a number of occasions until I was older (and, in some cases, still don't: how was "(Margie's At the) Lincoln Park Inn" so controversial when there were a hundred other songs about affairs out at the same time?). That album must've done something to his relationship with RCA, because right after that album he went to Mercury, where he recorded one of his best songs: "Come Sundown."
When he returned to RCA, he created what may be the first double album of all-new material in country music history: "Lullabys, Legends, and Lies: The Songs of Shel Silverstein." It contained his only #1 hit, "Marie Laveau," as well as Bobby Bare Jr.'s first hit, "Daddy What If."
Ralph Emery has a show on RFD-TV, and he had Bobby Bare on a couple of months ago. It is great to see that Bare is still performing, and that he's still fondly remembered. May he continue to entertain us for many years to come, and may his plaque go up on the wall at the Hall of Fame SOON!

Sure do. He was the real vocalist on the song "The All-American Boy" even though Bill Parsons got credited with it.
