Bobby Troup's first marriage was to Cynthia Hare. Bobby and Cynthia had two
daughters.

Troup's light and humorous musical style was similar to that of the Nat King
Cole <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nat_King_Cole> Trio.

In the 1940s Cole had a hit with Troup's best known song "(Get Your Kicks
On) Route 66 <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/(Get_Your_Kicks_On)_Route_66>"
which became a hit for Cole and then a popular standard. Chuck
Berry<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chuck_Berry> recorded
"Route 66" in 1961. In 1964, it was one of the earliest recordings by the
British rock group The Rolling
Stones<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Rolling_Stones>.
In 2006, "Route 66" was featured in the animated movie
*Cars<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cars_(film)>
*, and the movie *RV <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RV>* with Robin Williams.
