<p><p>Roy's first big hit was Only the Lonely, but before he recorded it himself in 1960, he offered it to the Everly Brothers, but they had already just recorded Roy's song "Claudette". Then, as Roy was traveling through Memphis, he stopped at Graceland intending to offer it to Elvis...but evidently it was too early in the day for The King to be up and around and, to put it bluntly, Roy was "turned away at the door".

<p><p>Elvis recognized later he'd made a mistake - when Only the Lonely was released, he bought BOXES of singles.
