*Jazz musician Bob Dorough, who helped an entire generation learn the preamble to the Constitution, how a bill becomes a law and the function of conjunctions, died of natural causes Monday at his home in Mount Bethel, Pa., according to his son Chris. He was 94.

In addition to his run with Schoolhouse Rock between 1973 and 1985, Dorough also wrote the song “Devil May Care,” which jazz legend Miles Davis recorded as an instrumental version.

Dorough was born in Arkansas and raised in Texas. He headed to New York City after graduating from the University of North Texas in 1949. He eventually settled in Pennsylvania.

A funeral is tentatively scheduled for Monday in Mount Bethel.
