The late Roy Orbison was undeniably one of the great rock singers--his quavering yet full-bodied voice conveys romantic angst like no other. 20 GOLDEN HITS features the best of Orbison's best-known tunes, plus a few obscure gems.

"Oh Pretty Woman" and "Only the Lonely" are here of course, and Orbison makes the Platters' doo-wop "The Great Pretender" sound like it was written for him. The gently swaying mid-tempo "Good Night" should have been a hit, while the ancient "Beautiful Dreamer," sung with great delicacy and restraint, shimmers like an exquisite mirage. The sound quality here is excellent: crisp, sharp, and with enough depth to bring across the evocative gospel/pop/R&B-charged wall of sound that accompanied that voice.

Includes liner notes by Chuck Young.

Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars) 4 stars

3 stars very few good songs
It seems to be a running theme that all the CD's I purchased from this sight had a few of the great hits, mixed in with a bunch of his lower end songs Very disappointed

5 stars The BIG O
This album is a wonderful synopsis of both Roy's brilliant songwriter and his magnificent voice. Roy was Elvis's only contemporary whom Elvis considered to better than him, with Roy having "the best voice in Rock'n'Roll". When Roy hits those high nights, it makes the hair on the back of my neck stand on end. Roy is one of the few non-Blues singers who can provide catharsis for your love-lorn sorrows. You should buy this album, but it will only be a starting point in building a collection of Roy's work.

CD $13.05  3.9 stars Top 500 Definitive Album
Digitally remastered by Peter Mew (2000, Abbey Road Studios, London, England). For the six years the Beatles were recording for Capitol Records, the Fab Four ascended to top of the American and British charts an astonishing 27 times. This single-disc compilation brings those hits together in one place to span every phase of the foursome's highly influential career. Early Merseybeat-flavored sides like "Love Me Do" (the band's first Stateside hit), "She Loves You," and "I Want To Hold Your Hand" struck a chord early on with hordes of screaming teens. Unfortunately, this found the band temporarily dismissed as mere teen idols ...

20 Golden Hits CD music
CD $10.15  Audio Samples
Recorded between 1953 & 1988. Includes liner notes by Jim Ferguson. Playing complex bop changes at a fast tempo was never a problem for Barney Kessel; few bop experts would disagree that his chops were impeccable, and it was a sad day for jazz when, in 1992, a major stroke forced him to retire from music. But when Kessel was still active, he was among bop's finest guitarists -- and not just because of his ability to play fast. Kessel was also a superb ballad player, and his romantic side is the focus of Barney Kessel Plays for Lovers. Assembled in 2003, this ballad-oriented compilation spans 1953-1988. Most of the selections are from the '50s, which ...
