This is a very special photo for me. Pictured are Roy Orbison and Terry Westlake, Roy’s keyboardist and band leader. We are backstage after doing a video interview at Expo 86. In this segment, Roy talks about his early days and his first meeting with Sam Phillips.

This July 1 is the 30th anniversary of the Legends of Rock and Roll at Expo. The producer of the extravaganza asked me to MC the free celebration to be held at Canada Place and I leaped at the chance to renew old memories. I will be showing footage of some of the many performers who appeared. Come on down and celebrate with us!
