The King would be 80 today. Roy Orbison and Elvis were friends, had a great level of mutual respect, and were even label mates at SUN. Elvis went so far as to call Roy “the greatest singer in the world” and the two attended each others concerts whenever they had the opportunity. When Elvis passed Roy wrote a song paying tribute to his dear friend.
