History

Some of the songs were leftovers from The Orbison Way sessions, Whilst the album was due to be complete Orbison went to England and promoted the single “Twinkle Toes”. On Easter Sunday 1966, he was riding his motorbike at Hawkestone Park in Birmingham when he fell off the bike and injured his foot. He performed a concert that week in a cast. Three weeks after the album was completed on June 6, 1966, Orbison and his wife Claudette rode on their motorbikes to a drag race in Bristol, Tennessee. They rode back the same night turning off Interstate 40 onto Highway 109 toward Gallatin for a shortcut back to Hendersonville. Roy led the way with Claudette behind him. Roy then heard sirens of emergency vehicles before he realised that Claudette wasn’t with him. He turned around to find out that she had been struck by a lorry and died later in the hospital.
