Clarence “Frogman” Henry - (I Don’t Know Why) But I Do
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Bobby Charles, a Louisiana singer and songwriter who wrote hits like Fats Domino’s “Walking to New Orleans,” Bill Haley and the Comets’ “See You Later, Alligator” and Clarence Frogman Henry’s “But I Do,” died on Thursday at his home in Abbeville, La. He was 71.
A reluctant performer who was better known to his fellow musicians than the general public, Mr. Charles had largely kept a low profile since taking part in the farewell concert of the Band, documented in the movie and album “The Last Waltz,” in 1976.
