"Swamp rocker" Tony Joe White scored big in 1969 with his song "Polk Salad Annie," which he wrote and recorded. Born and bred on a Louisiana cotton farm, the soulful elecric guitar player/singer has written and recorded plenty of songs, but none that resonated like "Annie." He also wrote, but didn't record, the Brook Benton hit "Rainy Night in Geogia."
