| | Roy Orbison Black & White Night CD Roy Orbison Discography of CDs
(3 Customer Reviews)
This is the soundtrack to the Cinemax TV special "A Black & White Night," which featured Orbison in concert backed by the "Billion Dollar Band."
Recorded live at the Coconut Grove, Los Angeles, California on September 30, 1987. Includes liner notes by Roy Kelton Orison, Jr.
A remastered, extended reissue of the album which started Roy Orbison's mid-'80s comeback, which was tragically ended by his death in 1988, BLACK & WHITE NIGHT is possibly the finest tribute concert ever recorded. The fact that the person paid tribute to is also the star of the show makes it essential for all Orbison fans.
As heavy as Orbison's friends are--the credits read like a Who's Who of '70s and '80s mainstream rock, from Bruce Springsteen to Elvis Costello--Orbison's unforgettable voice and presence never moves away from center stage. Whether reinterpreting '60s classics like "Only the Lonely" and the BLUE VELVET centerpiece "In Dreams," or handling excellent new material like Costello's "The Comedians"--the original lyrics, not the rewritten version Costello submitted for 1988's MYSTERY GIRL--Orbison sounds like he's at the peak of his game. Several excellent bonus tracks are also included.

| | Roy Orbison 50 All-Time Greatest Hits CDs (2002)
Black & White Night songs
$18.49 Perhaps Collectables Records should not get their hopes up on receiving "Truth in Advertising" awards for this two-disc Roy Orbison collection; a handy double set which compiled Orbison's classic Monument sides along with highlights from his releases for Sun, M-G-M, and Virgin would be a more than welcome addition to his catalog, but despite the title that's not what 50 All Time Greatest Hits has on board. This set features a whopping 47 tunes from Orbison's Monument years, with his three best known Sun sides ("Ooby Dooby," "Rock House," and "Go! Go! Go!") closing out disc two. All of Roy's classic '60s hits can be found on disc one, while a healthy selection of covers and lesser-knowns dominate the second half; it's all splendid material, even if ...

Black & White Night album
$9.99 THE BEST OF BONNIE RAITT ON CAPITOL 1989-2003 features Raitt's handpicked selections drawn from the era representing her greatest commercial success, kicking off with the three Grammy-winners from her Capitol debut, NICK OF TIME. Always an astute judge of other songwriters, this crimson-haired chanteuse cast a wide net and found chart success and airplay with covers of John Hiatt (the sassy shuffle "Thing Called Love"), Paul Brady (the Fleetwood Mac-like "Not the Only One"), and the little-known Bonnie Hayes (a simmering ...

Black & White Night CD music
$13.15 The Knockout Pills aren't going to change your life or even knock you out. They might give you half an hour of mindless punk & roll pleasure, though, and sometimes that is good enough. 1+1=Ate is the band's second album, and from beginning to end it never lets up on the loud, powerfully ragged guitars; howling vocals; crashing cymbals; and tight, tough, hook-filled tunes. The bandmembers have studied their Aussie punk records with vigor -- you can hear the influence of the mighty Radio Birdman, the Saints, the Celibate Rifles, and the entire Citadel roster. They also probably have heard the MC5 and the Stooges a few times, but you can't hold ...
