Roy Head (b 1 September 1941, Three Rivers, Texas) is an American singer, best known for his hit "Treat Her Right". He first formed his group, the Traits, in 1958, and recorded for several local labels, often with producer Huey Meaux. However, he did not have major success until 1965 when "Treat Her Right" reached # 2 on both the US pop and R&B charts. The song, with its pumping horns and punchy rhythm, established the singer as a prime exponent of "blue-eyed soul". <a href="https://www.last.fm
