Ray Sawyer, the Dr. Hook & The Medicine Show member who sang the 1973 Shel Silverstein-penned hit The Cover of Rolling Stone,' has died at the age of 81.
The Alabama-born Sawyer who founded the group with Dennis Locorriere, Billy Francis and George Cummings was a member of Dr. Hook & The Medicine Show from 1969 to 1981. A few years before the bands formation, Sawyer lost his right eye in a car accident; Sawyer wore an eyepatch that made him resemble the Peter Pan villain Captain Hook, which served as the inspiration for the Dr. Hook moniker.
In 1970, Dr. Hook & The Medicine Shows demo tapes wound up in the hands of author and songwriter Shel Silverstein, who recruited the band to become a vessel for his music: The group would turn Silverstein-written tracks like Sylvias Mother and The Cover of Rolling Stone' into hits and released two albums of Silverstein-penned songs, 1971s Dr. Hook and 1972s Sloppy Seconds.
