              How the heck did this get here???
Roy Kelton Orbison was born in Vernon, Texas, the middle son of Orbie Lee Orbison (1913–1984), an oil well driller and car mechanic, and Nadine Vesta Shults (July 25, 1913 – May 28, 1992),[6] a nurse. Both of his parents were unemployed during the Great Depression and, searching for work, moved the family to Fort Worth when Roy was a child. He attended Denver Avenue Elementary School until a polio scare prompted the family to return to Vernon. Later, they moved to Wink, Texas. ​
​Orbison later described life in Wink as "football, oil fields, oil, grease and sand"[7] and expressed relief that he was able to leave the desolate town.[note 1][8] All the Orbison children were afflicted with poor eyesight; Roy used thick corrective lenses from an early age. He was not confident about his appearance and began dyeing his nearly-white hair black when he was still young.[9] He was quiet, self-effacing, and remarkably polite and obliging—a product, biographer Alan Clayson wrote, of his Southern upbringing.[10] He was readily available to sing, however, and often became the focus of attention when he did. He considered his voice memorable, if not great.[7]
​"I Get Around" is a song written by Brian Wilson and Mike Love for American rock band the Beach Boys. It was released as a single in May 1964 with "Don't Worry Baby" as its B-side and became the group's first number-one charting song in the United States. In the United Kingdom, it charted at number seven and was the band's first top ten single there. It was included as the opening track on their studio album All Summer Long in July 1964.
​The Warmth of the Sun is a 2007 compilation of music by The Beach Boys released through Capitol Records. A successor to 2003's Sounds of Summer: The Very Best of The Beach Boys, The Warmth of the Sun is composed of fan favorites and hits that were left off its predecessor. Several songs were remixed in stereo for the first time. These are "All Summer Long", "You're So Good to Me", "Then I Kissed Her", "Please Let Me Wonder", and "Let Him Run Wild". The song "Wendy" appears as a new stereo remix with its middle eight cough edited out. This album also features an alternate mix of "Break Away" and the single versions of "Why Do Fools Fall In Love" and "Cool, Cool Water".
​That's the flipSide
