Luck was with Bobby Goldsboro when Roy Orbison came through the area on tour. Orbison took on Goldsboro’s band and Bobby stuck with him for the next three years. Bobby went solo and soon scored a modest hit with 'Molly,' a song that he despised. A short while later, however, he scored a top ten song with his own 'See the Funny Little Clown.' Other hits followed but his superb 'Broomstick Cowboy' was mistakenly seen by many radio stations as a Vietnam War protest songs and they refused to play it. Going against the grain, a Detroit station did air it and it became #1 in that area. His 'Honey' was the top record for 1968 reaching #1 on every chart. 'Watching Scotty Grow' was also a big hit. The early 70s saw the excellent 'Summer (The First Time)' make waves. England voted it the best summer song ever. Bobby hosted a top-rated TV variety program, The Bobby Goldsboro Show, wrote and produced an Easter special for Disney and took up oil painting, of which his art is highly regarded.

  • Through the years with prince charming
    Paul du Quenoy
    The past decade has overflowed in a raging stream of contradictions. Old certainties have yielded to relentless insecurity over a time when much of the human experience got immeasurably better even as many things only ever seemed to get worse.
