“The Swamp Fox” was an American singer-songwriter and guitarist best
known for his 1969 hit song, “Polk Salad Annie,” and for “Rainy Night
 in Georgia” which he wrote but was originally made popular by
Brook Benton in 1970. “Polk Salad Annie” was also recorded by
Elvis and Tom Jones. He also wrote two 1989 hits for Tina Turner: “Steamy
Windows,” and “Undercover Agent for the Blues.” Tony Joe White grew
up in a large family on a cotton farm in Louisiana. He first began performing
music at school dances and was performing in night clubs in Texas
and Louisiana after graduating high school. In 1967 White signed with
Monument Records, which operated from a recording studio in the Nashville
suburb of Hendersonville, TN, and produced rock and roll, country and
western and rhythm and blues recordings, headed by lead producer
Billy Swan. From 1967-1970 White released four singles with little to no
commercial success in the U.S., although “Soul Francisco” was a hit
in France. “Polk Salad Annie” had been released for nine months and
written off as a failure by Monument, when it finally entered the U.S. charts
 in July 1969. The song climbed to the Top Ten by early August and eventually
 reached No. 8, becoming White’s signature hit song. Tony’s first full length
studio album 1969’s “Black and White” was recorded with Muscle Shoals/Nashville
musicians David Briggs, Norbert Putnam, and Jerry Carrigan, and featured
the songs “Willie and Laura Mae Jones,” and “Polk Salad Annie,”
along with a cover of Jimmy Webb’s “Wichita Lineman.” “Willie and Laura
Mae Jones” was covered by Dusty Springfield and released as a
single, later added to reissues of her “Dusty In Memphis” album. Three
more minor hit singles followed and White toured with Steppenwolf, Anne Murray,
Sly & The Family Stone, Creedence Clearwater Revival and other
major rock acts of the 1970s, playing in France, Sweden, Germany, Belgium
 and the U.K. In 1973 Tony appeared in the film “Catch My Soul,” a r
ock-opera adaptation of Shakespeare’s Othello. He played and sang four
and composed seven songs for the musical. Tony Joe White made
a comeback in the 1990s, producing a non-single track, playing a variety
of instruments and writing four songs on Tina Turner’s Foreign Affairs album,
including the title song and the hit single “Steamy Windows.” As a result, Tony
became managed by Roger Davies, Turner’s manager of the time and
was signed to Polydor. 1991’s “Closer to the Truth” studio album was a
commercial success and helped put White back in the spotlight. He eventually
toured Germany and France with Joe Cocker and Eric Clapton and played the
 Montreux Festival in 1992. In the 2000s Tony Joe White released
subsequent studio albums on Sanctuary, New West, Yep Roc and more.
 In 2014 he appeared on the Late Show with David Letterman alongside
 the Foo Fighters to perform “Polk Salad Annie.” White died of a heart attack
on October 24, 2018 at the age of 75.
