Editorial Reviews

Album Description
2008 best of the box collection from the Rock 'N' Roll legend spanning his entire career from early hits like 'Ooby Dooby' straight through to hits from his final albums including 'You Got It'. Orbison remains one of the true godfathers of Rock 'N' Roll and Pop with his deep catalog still fondly remember by millions of people around the world. He was known for his smooth tenor voice, which could jump three octaves with little trouble. While not as rebellious as his Rock 'N' Roll brethren, Orbison's talents have continued to keep him poised high in the upper echelons of Rock Legends. 18 tracks including 'Crying', 'Oh Pretty Woman', 'I Drove All Night', 'In Dreams' and many others. Sony/BMG.


Customer Reviews

I like it5
I like this box set. The packaging is cool, very professional. I like that each CD is a little different. I'm a huge fan of the Traveling Wilburys and I was glad to see a song on here by them. Roy Orbison is a great singer and I've been listening to CD 3 for days. Something about his style-it never gets old. I'm also a huge fan of the black and white night dvd, which I will be commenting on as well. Roy had it right on so many levels.
