Long John Baldry

John William «Long John» Baldry () var ein engelsk-kanadisk bluessongar og stemmeskodespelar. Han song med fleire britiske musikarar, og Rod Stewart og Elton John spelte i band leia av Baldry i 1960-åra. Han hadde popsuksess i Storbritannia der «Let the Heartaches Begin» gjekk til topps i 1967 og i Australia der duetten hans med Kathi McDonald, «You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'», nådde andreplassen i 1980. Baldry budde i Canada frå slutten av 1970-åra til han døydde. Der fortsette han å spele inn plate og arbeide som stemmeskodespelar. To av dei mest kjende rollene hans var som Dr. Robotnik i Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog og som KOMPLEX i Bucky O'Hare and the Toad Wars.

Baldry døydde 21. juli 2005 i Vancouver av ein alvorleg brystinfeksjon. Han etterlet seg partnaren Felix «Oz» Rexach.Rexach, a native of New York City, had been Baldry's partner for over 25 years.
