Nick, there are 8 new videos that have surfaced on FACEBOOK's "BOBBY FULLER 4" Adm: by Alison Martino. These are must see videos. I took some of the pictures on your video: 1:59--2:04--2:26--2:40--2:46--­2:47--2:53--2:57--3:04--3:07--­4:01--4:06--4:45--5:52. My favorite was taken at 4AM Bobby in front of the 2 New * Track tape recorders that were mounted in the store room of his parents garage. He had cut a window thru the wall so he could see into the den to view the musicians.

thanks for the information, I'll go check those out if I can find them. Thank you for pointing out which photos are yours. Really excited to hear from you!

Their drummer, Dalton Powell, still lives here and his original drum kit was featured last year in a museum tribute to The Bobby Fuller Four and Rock and Roll in the '50's and '60's. One day the truth will come out about who murdered him and why.

Thanks for taking the time to comment and reflect, good to hear from you. I've seen a photo of his drum kit in the museum online before.

Thanks so much Nick. Who could ever know how the music we love would have further evolved had the likes of Bobby Fuller and Buddy Holly and Eddie Cochran lived

My first love Ruben and I went and saw Bobby Fuller in El Paso. It was a great concert one I will never forget. Watching his video of I fought the Law brought back so many memories. He was a great singer. I do miss his songs. AMK

You did a great job on this. There was a one million dollar life insurance policy taken out on Bobby Fuller when he signed to Del- Fi. The recipients were a bunch of mob guys. When he died, no one came forward to claim it.

great video! Well done.

Makes your heart ache at this time of year to think he has been gone over 44 years ago and yet his music sounds as good as ever. RIP Bobby.
