The All-Time Greatest Hits of Roy Orbison Audio CD

Product description1989 recording *** please read this *** Ships from Ohio no marks next day shipping tracking provided acd796Its a measure of Roy Orbisons classics that even some of the uptempo songs that break up the dominant balladic mood of this 20song collection are themselves fairly melancholic Rarely does Orbison allow himself the outright celebration of something like Mean Woman Blues, more often going for the shades of gray that slip into Blue Angel and Leah Few could do what he achieves on these singles, and not just because few are gifted with such a voice The biggest achievement of all may be Orbisons ability to make a devastated cry like Only the Lonely sound somehow peacefulRickey Wright
