Brooklyn born (23 December, 1946) Robbie Dupree is best known for his solo debut hit tune "Steal Away" (No. 6 on the Billboard Hot 100) in 1980. His solo career success was started by relocation to Los Angeles in 1978. Robbie signed as a solo singer with Elektra Records, then with the help of Rick Chudacoff and Peter Bunetta Robbie released the self-titled album in 1980. It did not take long to release second solo album “Street Corner Heroes” in 1981.
with the exception of the song "Girls in Cars," appeared on the 1987 competition album titled “The Wrestling Album, Vol. 2: Piledriver”, he didn't release any new recordings until 1989, when his long-awaited third album “Carried Away” was released.

Whilst he constantly toured in late 90’s in Japan and France and released his first live album “All Night Long” in 1998, we had to wait for his next studio recording album until 2003 when a jazzy “Robbie Dupree with David Sancious” released.
