RIP Dr Hook
Dr Hook & the Medicine Show vocalist and percussionist Ray Sawyer has died aged 81. He died “peacefully in his sleep” after a brief illness, according to his wife, Linda Sawyer.
Sawyer was a founding member of the Chocolate Papers, a trio from the American south that split in the late 1960s. After leaving the group, Sawyer decided he was “going insane from too much beans and music” and decided to pursue a career as a logger in Oregon. He got into a car crash en route and lost an eye.[Click to View YouTube Video]
For all the Hi-jinks, he could bring it![ Click to View YouTube Video] After the accident, he vowed to return to music. He joined Dr Hook & the Medicine Show, the Alabama-based* group(*a mix of California & southern members, sic) featuring all the former members of the Chocolate Papers. Although Dennis Locorriere was the band’s lead singer, Sawyer’s eye patch and cowboy hat made him the group’s most distinctive member.[Click to View YouTube Video]
