  • Roy Black (singer) (1943–1991), German singer and actor
  • Roy Turnbull Black, early 20th century U.S. chess player

    Roy Black (January 25, 1943 – October 9, 1991) was a German schlager singer and actor, who appeared in several musical comedies and starred in the 1989 TV series, Ein Schloß am Wörthersee.

    Born Gerhard Höllerich in Bobingen, Bavarian Swabia, Germany, Black attended the gymnasium in Augsburg and, aged 20, founded the rock and roll band Roy Black and His Cannons. His stage name derived from his black hair and his idol, Roy Orbison.

    Roy Black and His Cannons achieved some local fame and were offered a recording contract with Polydor Records. However, his record producer Hans Bertram decided on a solo career for Black, and a switch to romantic songs for his protégé, a decision which soon led to nationwide fame. In 1966, his single "Ganz in Weiß"—a romantic song about marrying in white—sold in excess of one million copies by the end of 1967. His 1969 song "Dein schönstes Geschenk", sold one million copies by May 1970, having spent nine weeks at number one in the German chart.

    Famous quotes by Roy Black:

    "That Luis' innocence has finally been admitted is cause for celebration, but nothing can erase the 26 years he spent in prison, in horrible condition, separated from his family."
    "doctor-patient privilege on a question-by-question basis."
    "The Best Lawyers in America 2003-2004."
    "Not a word he said there is true, ... First of all, he said it's going to be treated like any other case, and, of course, we know that's not true. He also says he did this investigation before he made up his mind. Yet the first press conference he gave before he did any investigation, he called the woman a victim and said she had been through a horrible time."
    "Unfortunately, under the rules in Virginia, much of our evidence was not allowed. I think if all of our evidence had been allowed, we would not be in this position right now."
    "I don't think it was bad faith. I just think the judge was wrong on the law."
    "the best way to end this matter."
    "We have every indication that as a first offender, and as a person of his background, he's not going to spend one day in jail."
    "That's exactly what happened,"
    "It was a much different offer than the one we got before the trial."
