Especially the "You've got to..." line.

I was only 7 years old when I got his record. I must have listened to it 100 times. I brought it to Show and Tell a d my friend also brought HER record to show on the same day.

I posted it later in this thread. It has Little Woman on the A side and my little kid printing on the sleeve makes me smile.

His songs were always listenable and even catchy.

Even as a "teen idol," he apparently never let it go to his head.

RIP, Bobby. You entertained many, many people.

instead of pin the tail on the donkey, I took a Tiger Beat centerfold of him, mom cut out mustaches, and we played 'pin the mustache on Bobby Sherman.

R.I.P. Bobby.

Crush, I had his poster on my wall in the late 60's, early 70's. This was my favorite song and I named my daughter Julie.

Such sad news. He devoted his life after fame to helping people as an EMT. RIP Bobby.

loss in the music and acting industry. I liked him.
RIP

We have lost too many singers from our generation lately. So sad ☹️

…. In the last 15 or so years and I heard them interviewed and they were all nice guys.

USA Today has nice article detailing his years of public service afterwards. I knew about the EMT stuff, but not the LAPD stuff.

“He was a man of service. He traded sold-out concerts and magazine covers for the back of an ambulance, becoming an EMT and a trainer with the LAPD. He saved lives. He showed us what real heroism looks like—quiet, selfless, and deeply human."

By the mid-'70s, after guest starring on the TV series "Emergency!," Sherman decided to detour from celebrity life and began a new career in emergency services. He volunteered at the Los Angeles Police Department from the 1990s through 2017 and worked as a technical reserve police officer with the unit. In 1999 he was named the LAPD's reserve officer of the year. Sherman was also a reserve deputy sheriff for the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department.

The first was "Doesn't Somebody Want to be Wanted" by the Partridge Family. I think Bobby made a cameo appearance on the show and I had my mom drive me to the TG&Y to buy his single.

Four years later, I was listening to Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath and ZZ Top. But for a few months in 1971, I was pristine and unjaundiced.

That was the first record I ever owned. My sister and I would stay glued to the TV for Here Come The Brides.

I just looked at my 45s and I STILL have Little Women! The B side is "One Too Many Mornings" and I can see my faded 8 year old printing on the sleeve.

I have all the “Here come the Brides” episodes on my external hard drive. I enjoyed them as much as the music. We did have great music back then. Most of the protest music is as applicable today to what’s going on as it was back then.

And the Here Come the Brides show I watched weekly as a kid!

to read all about Bobby. 😪
