Starry Eyes is probably one of my favourite Roky songs (originally cut in '75 by Roky and his first solo band, Bleib Alien, and released as a single). It's an absolutely beautiful melody. Excellent post!

Here's a fairly comprehensive Roky page for those interested: http://bomplist.xnet2.com/9510/msg00075.html

Thanks for that info GC! I am so enamored of this guy...his voice is so poignant and his story is fascinating and heart-breaking. I am glad that there is somewhat of a happy ending since it looks like he may be recording some more of his music.
