Welcome … take a tour of my site, and please feel at home as you may or may not know, I’ve been signing since the early 60’s, while I was in college. The very first song, A Tender Doo-Wap Ode written for my very shapely Biology teacher was Titled “Cry A Little Cry”. Since then I’ve made several Albums, written a ton of songs, and had the enormous luck to have had some of my compositions sung by artists such as Freddy McGregor, Gregory Isaacs, Dennis Brown, Ken Boothe and “Ally” the lead singer of UB-40. Recently, I gave my heart to Jesus and now have added songs to and about HIM to my repertoire. I do not take the fact that you are visiting this site lightly and I trust that you will allow me to express myself freely, inviting you to my concerts, encouraging you to purchase my CD’s and just keeping informed as to what’s up with me. Again, WELCOME, and feel at home.

THIS SELF-PENNED GOSPEL ALBUM IS NOW AVAILABLE ON CDBABY.COM IT REPRESENTS THE HEARTFELT TESTIMONY OF ONE WHO FELL FROM GRACE AND WHO THRU SHEER DETERMINATION AND GOD'S FORGIVING GRACE, RAISED HIMSELF UP TO LIVE AGAIN. © 2006-2008 DOBBY DOBSON

He Knows My Heart

Soul searching, tender gospel music. Comes at you from the bottom of the singer's soul. Here's a man who has found the caring love of Jesus and who is not ashamed to shout it to the world.

Tomorrow

You have listened to his testimony on "those days are gone" his first album on cd baby. Here dobby continues to sing about his love affair with Jesus. There's deep sadness that will move the listener to tears on "tomorrow" and even deeper despair as he remembers his mother on "tears in heaven", theres marvel and devotion and awe in "wonderful world" and there is rip roaring gospel singing in his Jesus medleys 1 and 2. It is, however, when he cries "why me lord", that the baring of his heart is seen, stripped of all facades and pretensions. Here is dobby dobson, who considers himself most unworthy of God's grace and forgiveness coming to terms that just "maybe, I can show someone else what I've been thru myself on my way back to you" Dobby at his sweet, sad best.

   About Dobby Dobson Music




Legendary singer Dobby Dobson, born Highland Ralph Dobson, began singing in the early 50’s’. Though his career started in his native home, Jamaica he is now renowned worldwide. He has appeared all over the Caribbean, South, Central and North Americas, Canada and The United Kingdom. This talented performer has become famous for his stirring performances that always leave the audience begging for more and make the ladies scream with delight. Dobby’s talents knows no boundaries, in addition to singing, he is also a gifted songwriter, producer and actor.

Dobby’s career began while he was attending Central Branch School in Kingston, Jamaica. His most famous acting performance was when he had the lead role in Ali Baba and the 40 thieves; his wife being played by Madge Sinclair of Trapper John M.D fame. Dobby later competed, as a member of ‘The Twilights’ in the highly recognized talent show called the Opportunity Hour hosted by Vere Johns. While at Kingston College he composed his first song "Cry A Little Cry" and recorded It with his friends Howard Barrett, Fuzzy Byfield and Dennis Gayle, who were all students in the Delta Stream at Kingston College, hence the name Dobby And The Deltas. Dobby and Chuck Josephs (know as Dobby and Chuck) went on to record a series of hit songs in quick succession namely: Sweeter than Honey, Du Du Wap, Cool School, I Love My Teacher, and Oh Fanny.

As a result of his growing popularity he went on to pursue a solo career in the 1960s recording a string of hits such as Loving Pauper, Trouble Jim (Duke Reid), Seems to me I’m Losing, Ride Mi Donkey(Sir Coxson), Wonderful Sound, Endlessly, Strange, What Love has joined together (Rupie Edwards), Sweet Dreams, Muriel, and Oh Donna (Federal Records).

In addition to his solo career Dobby Dobson was also busy being the lead singer for several bands including The Sheiks, The Virtues, Kes Chin and the Souvenirs, The Granville Williams Orchestra, Charles and The Teddy Boys, Inner Circle and Fab 5.

Dobby is an avid songwriter, Loving pauper, Seems to me I’m loosing, Sweeter Than Honey, are just some of his original songs, many of which have been covered by international artists, such as Bob Andy and Marcia Griffiths, UB40, Freddy McGregor, Gregory Isaacs and others. His early composition of ‘Du Du Wap’ has been included in many documentaries tracing the origin of Jamaica music.

When he wasn’t composing and singing, Dobby was busy producing music. He is credited with producing Barrington Levy’s first single “Fi Mi Black Girl’, the Meditations first and second albums, and Dobby’s own best selling album History for Lovers. In addition to his busy music career, Dobby was also employed at the Gleaner Company, as a proof reader, at The Ministry of Labour as a labour officer in charge of recruitment of workers to Guantanamo Bay. He was also a brand manager with Colgate Palmolive and later became the Caribbean Brand Manager for Cadbury Foods (JA), Limited.

In 1972 Dobby migrated to New York, where he continued to record charts topping records of the time including ”Mexican Divorce”, “Harry Hippie”, “Can I Trust You”, “Hide Under The Bed” and a brand new version of “Loving Pauper”. He also recorded a number one song ‘Words’ for Germaine's Penthouse Label.



Upon the death of his mother in 2000 Dobby went through a life changing experience and became a born-again Christian. After turning his life over to God Dobby released his first Christian album, the self- penned “Those Days are Gone” followed by “Tomorrow” and a third called “You Raised Me Up”. Despite his transformation Dobby still sings the secular songs for which he is famous, while also performing at Gospel events throughout the world.

Dobby has had the privilege to perform with such luminaries as Fats Domino, Chuck Jackson, Ben E King, Percy Sledge, Skeeter Davis, Melba Moore, The Mighty Sparrow, Calypso Rose, The Stylistics, Dorothy Moore, The Manhattans and Billy Paul. His greatest joy however, is when he shares the stage with fellow Christians such as Shelly Thunder, Ken Parker, Joan Myers, Stitchie, George Banton, Jhoy, Candi Staton, Carline Davis and a host of other "Earth Angels" as He lovingly calls them.

Your new CD "Love Songs For Jesus" is great. This is an outstanding recording, where we can appretiate the strong link between "Old Time Religion" and Contemporary Gospel Music. Dobby Dobson is a gifted artist who uses revolutionary techniques to get the young and the "old" jumping for JESUS. The message conveyed in the songs are biblically sound, and there is a great mixture of style and beats. This CD has wonderful songs, and it's absolutely recommendable. May God continue to use and bless you.
