Yahoo LAUNCHCAST song of the day

Artist:Clarence "Frogman" Henry
Song:Don't Know Why (But I Do)
Album:Ain't Got No Home


This New Orleans based singer got the nickname Frogman from his croaking on his 1956 hit Ain't Got No Home. He was a contemporary of Fats Domino & Roy "Professor Longhair" Byrd. Don't know Why was a big hit in 1961 and showcased Henry's singing ability. It still sounds great. Henry is still around and has performed at the New Orleans Heritage Jazz Festival in recent years.
