7 ‘Schoolhouse Rock’ Songs Written By Bob Dorough
If you know your times tables or various parts of sentence structure very well, there’s a good chance Bob Dorough is the reason for that.
Dorough, who passed away yesterday (April 24) at the age of 94, was one of the main songwriters and performers of the classic tunes from Schoolhouse Rock. The show’s original run began in 1973 and lasted through 1985 and yielded some of the most catchy, educational tunes that still get used in school today.
