In just a few pages, this tells the fascinating story of a legend -- Roy Orbison. People who wrote about him often commented that he dressed like an insurance salesman, instead of a rock star. Roy Orbison has a tragic life, with huge highs and terrible lows. I liked that this quick eBook mentioned the Traveling Wilburys, the super-group he was in at the time of his death.

Barbara Orbison, Roy's second wife (after the death of Claudette), kept his music and legend alive until her death. Then, the mantle was passed to their two boys. I wondered what happened to the third child (Wesley), from his first marriage. There was no information.
