Dr. Horse
Dr. Horse was the stage name of Al Pittman (17 September 1917 – 28 April 2004), an American rhythm and blues vocalist and entertainer who performed between the 1930s and 1960s.
He was born in Vinnia, Georgia, and first performed in New York in the 1930s as a dancer and a member of Doc Sausage's musical comedy group, the Five Pork Chops.〔("On This Day in Jazz Age Music: September 17th" ).

Produced by Robinson and Marshall Sehorn, Dr. Horse delivered a jive monologue about "a tall handsome guy", Bobo, who "really knows how to dress" and had "two $50,000 rings, and he wore one on each hand...
