Roy Head - January 9, 1941 – September 21, 2020

by: Gaylon King of San Antonio, Texas

 

Roy Head passed away in September of 2020. He had some awesome country stuff back in the mid 70's. A couple of my personal favorites were "Angel With A Broken Wing" and "The Most Wanted Woman". Such an amazing artist. Born in Three Rivers, Texas, He achieved fame as a member of a musical group from San Marcos, known as The Traits. The group's sponsor landed their first recording contract in 1958 with TNT Music here in San Antonio while they were still in high school. Roy was best known for his rockabilly sound, and landed a big hit in 1965 entitled "Treat Her Right".
