Roy Orbison - The Soul Of Rock and Roll - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Roy Orbison - Indispensable R. Orbison 1956- [COMPACT DISCS] date 04/01/2014

Experience two grand classics, alive with all the excitement and verve of their very first performances. Thrill to one of Haydn's masterful 'London' symphonies that wowed England's capital - the smash hit 'Military', so-called for intense depictions of the clash of arms and ferocious roar of war. In the epic Nelson Mass Handel and Haydn Society's magnificent chorus and soloists join the orchestra in this homage to the heroic admiral who helped to vanquish Napoleon. Of conductor Harry Christophers, BBC Radio 3 Record Review wrote InchWhat Harry is particularly good at is nurturing the natural beauty of the instruments and voices and, indeed, acoustic that are in front of him. It's very handsome.Inch

Bear Family special compilation of all of Roy's 'rockin' material - the first of it's kind - from his days at Sun all the way up through RCA Victor and Monument, ending with his biggest career hit, Oh Pretty Woman. This CD is a solid blast from start to finish, from such solid rockabilly stompers as Cat Called Domino and You're My Baby and of course Ooby Dooby, on up through the beat years of What'd I Say, Mean Woman Blues and other excellent tracks.
