The Bobby Fuller Four - hit the US charts with a brilliant cover of the Crickets' "I Fought The Law" (later ruined by the Clash). Then released an equally brilliant version of the Crickets' "Love's Made A Fool Of You". Along with Creedence Clearwater Revival, Bobby took the spirit of 50's rock 'n' roll into the 60's. But, sadly, not for long...Bobby was found dead in his car, reeking of gasoline, in an LA parking lot in the summer of '66. The offical verdict was suicide, but darker theories abound. He left some great music behind, though.
