Bobby Goldsboro joins Frank Gerard for a rare, exclusive conversation about “Honey,” life on the road with Roy Orbison, sharing a tour bus with The Beatles, and discovering a new creative passion at 65.

Bobby remembers the phone call that put him in Orbison’s band, Roy’s offstage humor, and the frog impression that amused Paul McCartney and baffled Johnny Carson. He also recalls meeting Elvis Presley aboard an airplane and finding that Elvis wanted to talk about Orbison.

The stories behind the songs include why “Honey” initially left Bobby unconvinced, writing “With Pen in Hand” during a roadside rainstorm, and meeting Mac Davis before recording “Watching Scotty Grow.” He explains the meaning behind “The Autumn of My Life” and how “Summer (The First Time)” took shape backstage at The Tonight Show.

Bobby also discusses his television series, creating The Swamp Critters of Lost Lagoon, and writing the Evening Shade theme at Burt Reynolds’ request. The visit closes with painting, everyday life, and our “Legendary Favorites” questions.
