Description of Essential
From his hardcore '50s Memphis start to his symphonic 1960s masterpieces and his stunning 1980s comeback,Roy Orbison's uniformly extraordinary recordings still rank today as some of American music's finest. Gifted with a soaring voice that conjured vulnerability and loss with acute precision, the Texas-boren singer-songwriter-guitarist wasted no time-he had his own radio show at age ten and formed his first rock & roll band, The Teen Kings in 1955. Recording at Sam Philips' legendary Sun Studios alongside Jerry Lee Lewis and Johnny Cash, Orbison was stillseeking his ideal sound and, after parting ways with Sun,finally found it, with 1960s "Only The Lonely". Orbison's creativity gave birth to a unique, highly individualized, orchestral pop-rock style that resulted in a series of masterpieces and him an international start. By 1988, Orbison was enjoying a dream comeback:topping the charts with songs that once again cemented his reputation as a pop genius;while death claimed him too soon, The Essential Roy Orbison (which marks this legend's 70th Anniversary)charts the entire grand trajectory of his unrivaled career.Pop CDs
