August 26 - Leon Redbone (The Musical Birthday Series)

Leon Redbone (26 August 1949 – 30 May 2019) had an improbable pop career singing  Tin Pan Alley standards and novelty material.

 




















With his reluctance to discuss his past came speculation that ‘Leon Redbone’ 
was an alternative identity for another performer. Two common suggestions in 
years past were Andy Kaufman and Frank Zappa, both of whom 
Redbone outlived.”  Wikipedia

Doppelgänger


Leon Redbone, who is recently dead,
Wore a signature hat on his head. 
Some people thought his eccentric persona
Couldn’t be real, that it wasn’t his own, a
Conspiracy theory which was set to the side
As each of the alternate candidates died.
