About this deal
This deal is expired. Here are some options that might interest you:
Roy Orbison possessed a voice that commanded immediate attention. He may have appeared meek and mild-mannered on the surface, yet beneath this facade lay an inner world brimming with passion and fervor. Orbison’s style was innovative and avant-garde, almost as if he were an embodiment of alternative rock before the term even entered the lexicon. He represented the emotive, tender facet of rock and roll, a stark contrast to his contemporaries who were often swathed in leather jackets and exuded the confidence of a typical rockstar.
Yet despite achieving international success with songs like “Only the Lonely,” “Crying,” and “Oh, Pretty Woman,” Orbison’s life was far from perfect. The premature deaths of his wife and two of his children had a profound impact on him, and his music from this period reflects a deep sense of loss. His life journey, punctuated by soaring highs and heartbreaking lows, is a tale of resilience and survival, and this book aims to explore it thoroughly from beginning to end.
