Bobby Hendricks Rehearsal New Bedford, MA 4-15-16

In April of 2016, Bobby Hendricks made his final New England appearance on a multi-act show at the Zeiterion Performing Arts Center in New Bedford, MA. He was backed by the Massachusetts-based group, Back in Time, consisting of Leslie Anderson (longtime lead of Cleveland Still's Dubs), Sid Hall of the Philips-label Flamingos, Carl Williams, and Freddy Guess. Although it was not made public at the time, 78-year-old Bobby had recently been diagnosed with mild to moderate Alzheimer's Disease. Despite the diagnosis, the performance was a resounding success. In this informal footage shot the night before the show, Bobby Hendricks rehearses four of the songs from his full-length set with Back in Time and musical director-arranger Jack Colombo: "Money Honey", "Drip Drop", "A Thousand Dreams", which he had not performed in more than 50 years, and "Such A Night" with friend Kid Kyle and his Harmony Masters. Bobby died of complications from the disease on March 25, 2022 at age 84.
