There is a story behind this worth mentioning..

"On 6 June, 1966, Roy and Claudette were setting off on a motorcycle holiday when a truck driver pulled out in front of her bike. She died in his arms an hour later, at just 24 years old. Roy was devastated to lose his beautiful wife. The tragic lyrics and haunting melody of 'Too Soon To Know', which reached number three in the British charts just two months later, still tug at the heartstrings four decades on.




Roy Orbison endured a great deal of tragedy in his relatively short life. His first wife, Claudette Frady died in a motorcycle accident on June 6, 1966 in Gallatin, Tennessee. On September 14, 1968, the Orbison family home at Old Hickory Lake in Hendersonville, Tennessee, burned to the ground while Orbison was touring in England. Two of his three sons, Roy Jr. (b. 1958) and Anthony (b. 1962), died in the fire. His youngest son Wesley, who was three at the time, was saved by Orbison's parents".

Cricko(and BB),
I have a good story about The Floyd(who I don't particularly care for)that you might be interested in.
A good mate of mine here, Mick 0'G(who Shrimpero and Ritchie C. have met)went to school with them in Cambridge.Back in the late 80's, Floyd played a concert at Espanyol's Sarria stadium(the Money tour IIRC, which I later caught up with in Montpellier).Mick was teaching a summer course at the Business school where we both used to work and since it was the last night went out for a meal and a few drinks with his students, as you do.Anyway,in the early hours, Mick ended up with a few remaining students at the Otto Zutz nightclub and who should walk in but Dave Gilmour(after the show and on his tod)."Hello Mick" he apparently said at the bar and stopped to chat about old Cambridge days.Apparently, Mick's students were well impressed.:guitar:

Great though Fairport undoubtedly were at the time of Liege and Lief, a few other '60s revival acts were superior IMO...

[video=youtube_share;mzt5fydrN9A]http://youtu.be/mzt5fydrN9A[/video]Don't think I'd agree that Pentangle(though they did have the superb Bert Jansch whose solo stuff is much better IMO)or Shirley Collins(+Albion Band)were exactly cutting edge folk back in the 60's compared to Fairport's eclectic and original reworking of folk classics.Shirley Collins I've always thought of as more important for popularising Leonard Cohen and for an excellent autobiographical account of her travels in the Delta.
A group I always liked from a slightly later period were Dave Cousin's The Strawbs.

And yet Pentangle and Shirley Collins are now seen as being innovators with an almost avant garde approach to folk, whereas Fairport's stodgy old four-to-the-floor folk-rock makes them look like the Status Quo of British folk! Pentangle were 4 virtuosos with a very competent singer and their arrangements of trad tunes was far more inventive than Fairport, and Shirley's work with both her sister and Davy Graham is now rightly seen as being incredibly trailblazing and forward thinking ('Folk Routes, New Roots' is just about the most important folk album of all time IMO). Oh, and Shirley Collins never recorded a Leonard Cohen song in her life, think you're confusing her with (the very average) Judy Collins.
