One of Elvis Presley's stablemates at Sun Records in the 1950s, Roy Orbison had to wait until the early 1960s to make his mark on popular music, delivering distinctively emotional vocal performances on hits such as 'Only the Lonely' and 'Crying'. Compiled by his sons, this illustrated biography features over 300 photographs charting the singer's career from his childhood in West Texas and rise to fame to his career revival in the 1980s. Off-mint.
