Very sad to hear this-yet another fine voice and artist of  Soul and Doo-Wop gone ;from The Genies' uptempo Doo-Wop classic of 58',  'Who's That Knockin'  (on which he sang lead) to his' Shotgun Wedding' hit and great Shout 45' 'Stop What You're Doing' in the 60's and his excellent production of the Mark IV's 'Honey I Still Love You' (lovely record) in the 70's-he left a legacy to be proud of

“Loneliness has a hold on me “ 

“she’s gone “ ( took the tv and telephone ) are superb soul

' Tear Avenue' is another gem of Roy's (flip of 'Twistin' Pneumonia',released in 66' but cut a couple of years earlier) a really nice bit of  Deep Soul/Blues
