Roy Orbison -- All-Time Greatest Hits
Without question Roy Orbison is one of the most unique Rock 'n' Roll persona's of All-Time. The great thing is that he didn't have to use shock or glamour, no, Roy was purely himself with the enigmatic voice! The double album set features 20 Orbison hit numbers, here's the quick synopsis: flamenco beat driven, orchestral, operatic rockabilly -- does that even make sense?? The music has a dark desperation, filled with loneliness and wonder, making In Dreams perfect for Lynch's Blue Velvet. My personal favorites are the rockabillied, Uptown, Dream Baby and somewhat Dylanesque Candy Man. Roy Orbison is a must hear for every music lover, there will never be another one like him, so whether you love it or hate it, you can't help but appreciate it!
