Amazon.com essential recording

It's a measure of Roy Orbison's classics that even some of the uptempo songs that break up the dominant balladic mood of this 20-song 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 Orbison's ability to make a devastated cry like "Only the Lonely" sound somehow peaceful. --Rickey Wright

5 out of 5 stars Best 1 disc Orbison collection.......2007-05-27

This is the best single disc collection of Roy Orbison's Monument hits. It was originally released on 2 LPs in the early 80's. One thing I've always wondered about is that this 20 track CD has always been also available as 2 separate volumes with 10 tracks each & having the same cover artwork (you'd have to be careful to read the list of tracks on the back) Why?? If someone is an Orbison fan why would they want one volume & not the other? Why not just have all 20 tracks on one CD, as it is done here? Also, one reviewer asks why "You Got It" isn't here,well it's because that song wasn't even recorded yet when this album was released, and that song was on Virgin Records,not Monument.

5 out of 5 stars It is Roy Orbison.......2007-03-29

What more can be said? Roy Orbison has a quality of voice that can't be duplicated. One of the few really original and great voices.

4 out of 5 stars Sound is good.......2007-03-21

I would like to suggest, contrary to the review of Aug 2006, that the sound on this nice collection of Roy Orbison's Monument hits, is actually quite good.

With the puzzling exception of the song LOVE HURTS, which seems to have been mastered from a very muffled tape.

This Sony disk was issued in 1989, and has not been re-mastered since then, so you're getting a relatively unfutzed edition for a nominal price.

5 out of 5 stars All time greatest Hits of Roy Orbison.......2007-01-10

Love this CD. Just what I ezpected and wanted. Would recommend it to my friends.

4 out of 5 stars Good Old Roy.......2006-08-18

Very satisfying Orbison. All the hits you can remember and some lesser known ones. Good quality recording.

    5 out of 5 stars At Last...A LIVE Performance!!!!!!.......2005-11-01

    I have been waiting years to hear the voices of Ferrante & Teicher!! I do realize this CD is comprised of various performances from their tours....great selections....and just hearing the monologues is worth the price. The symphonic performances presented...considering the sources available to them...are totally awesome! Two very talented men, very funny...although they are retired I am glad they saved these performances. Sound quality varies...but that is easily overlooked! More please!!!!!!!!!

    1 out of 5 stars not even for fans.......2005-10-29

    Shockingly bad sound--the amateur quality you would expect from a pirate taping, not from this (up till now) respected label.
