:''For the Louisiana state judge, see Greg G. Guidry'' Gregory M. Guidry (January 23, 1950 – July 28, 2003), better known as Greg Guidry was an American singer-songwriter. Born in St. Louis, Missouri, he played piano and sang gospel as a child, and sang in a band with future Doobie Brother Michael McDonald as a teenager. With quite a bit of help from Rich Lang, friend and fellow multi-talented musician, they wrote and recorded several demos, drove to New York from St.Louis and signed a publishing contract with CBS Records in 1977 and wrote songs for Climax Blues Band, Robbie Dupree, Exile, Johnny Taylor, Sawyer Brown, and Reba McEntire. In 1981 he sang as a backing vocalist for the Allman Brothers Band on their 1981 album ''Brothers of the Road''. He signed with Columbia in 1982 and released an album, ''Over the Line'', which produced two hit singles, "Goin' Down" (US #17, US AC #11) and a duet with his sister Sandy, "Into My Love" (US #92).〔(Billboard Singles ), Allmusic.com〕 While he continued to do songwriting work later in the 1980s, he did not issue a follow-up album until 2000, when ''Soul'd Out'' and ''Private Session'' were released, and his debut album was re-released. On July 28, 2003, Guidry died in a fire at age 53. His charred body was found in a car parked in his garage in Fairview, Tennessee. His death was ruled a suicide. ==Discography== *''Over the Line'' (Columbia Records, 1982; reissued as a self-release, 2000) US #147〔(Billboard ), Allmusic.com〕 *''Soul'd Out'' (Seymour, 2000) *''Private Session'' (Seymour, 2000) *''The Demo Years'' (SCORE Records, 2014) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Greg Guidry」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
