Bobby Marchan – Funny Style

Bobby Marchan – Funny Style (Dial, 1965)

From one of soul music’s early LGBTQ singers, comes this infectious groover produced by the prolific Buddy Killen. Though some may be more familiar with other gender-challenging impresarios like Jackie Shane or Akihiro Miwa, Bobby Marchan made an unquestionable mark on the New Orleans music scene as a regular at the Dew Drop Inn, a safe haven for conspicuously talented souls seeking refuge from discrimination.
