Daughter born [10 December 1974]

Country and pop singer, songwriter and guitarist.

Had a million-selling country and pop smash hit, "Honey," in 1968. "Honey" is one of a select few singles to reach No. 1 on both Billboard magazine's country (three weeks) and Hot 100 (five weeks)charts.

Started out in a band called the Webs, who were opening for Roy Orbison on tour when he abruptly invited them to become his new backup band. His years touring and recording with Orbison prepared him for his solo career.

Wore contact lenses for years, and recommended them to John Lennon when they met on tour with Roy Orbison. (Unfortunately hard lenses - the only kind available at the time - didn't get along with the jellybabies thrown by Beatles fans, which occasionally hit Lennon in the face and eyes, and he soon gave up on contacts.)

Had a reputation for occasional klutziness (such as tripping over a Rice Krispie left on the floor), which he took in his stride; he told fans in the liner notes to one album that stories they'd heard were probably true.

His other country hit was 1971's "Watching Scotty Grow". Mac Davis wrote the song for his son Scotty, and both men joked that the boy now thought Goldsboro was his dad.

His famous tree-frog impression was very often mis-identified as a cricket.

Has created, written and produced at least 52 episodes of the children's video series "The Swamp Critters of Lost Lagoon" (1995). In addition, he voices all of the characters played by costumed actors and puppets.

Has written and performs (in assorted voices) more than 100 new songs for his "Swamp Critters" children's video series.
