Bobby Livingston comes into his own with release of original music
Bobby Livingston is an intense man with a lot of things he’d like to get off his chest. Never having come to grips with the death of his parents and his divorce drove this music scene dabbler to become a respected singer-songwriter in his own right. “My parents died when I was young,” he said. “To this day, I’m still drowning in the sorrow of losing my parents. It’s just never gone away, and I never dealt with it. My father died when I was alone with him, all by myself, and it changed my life. I watched my father. It just; I can’t even fucking talk about it.” Livingston began choking up, sobbing intensely. “I can’t talk about it, man. This happened in 1982 so it’s still an emotionally powerful thing.”
