Early rock
'n' roller Joe Barry, a Cajun from southern Louisiana, began recording locally
in 1958. In 1961, his second single for Jin Records, "I'm a Fool to Care," was
picked up nationally by Mercury Records' Smash subsidiary, and peaked in the pop
Top 40, also reaching the R&B charts, and even charting in the U.K. Its follow-up,
"Teardrops in My Heart," also made the pop charts. Barry continued to record for
Smash, and later Nugget Records in the 1960s, but stopped working in music
full-time by the end of the decade. In 1977, He released a self-titled country
album on ABC-Dot Records, and in 1980 he made a religious LP, Sweet Rose Of
Sharon. But that appeared to be the end of his recording career until early in
the 21st century, when, despite numerous ailments that have limited his ability
to sing for more than 30 seconds at a time, he was able to record a new album,
Been Down That Muddy Road, for Night Train Records, doing vocal overdubs for a
period of two-and-a-half years. The album was released August 19, 2003. Just
over one year later, on August 31, 2004, Joe Barry succumbed to the illnesses
that hounded him and passed away in his hometown of Cut Off, LA.
