| | Very Best Of Roy Orbison CD Roy Orbison Discography of CDs
Digitally remastered by Stephen Marcussen (Precision Mastering, Los Angeles, California).
The black clothes, the dark glasses, the spine-tingling falsetto...these Roy Orbison trademarks reinforced the image of the loners and lovelorn characters populating this legend's canon. The 80's were a rebirth for Orbison, resulting in Grammys, Traveling Wilbury membership and the resumption of a successful career cut short by a heart attack in 1988.
THE VERY BEST OF collects a chunk of Orbison hits re-recorded in 1985 (the initial masters were caught up in legal proceedings threatening their very existence). Regardless of time's passing, Orbison's pure singing style and talent kept the songs sounding true to their original versions. Previously unreleased nuggets and live performances round out this package, including songs from the star-studded BLACK AND WHITE NIGHT LIVE album, a rare acoustic reading of "Pretty Paper" (taken from a 1964 British TV special) and Orbison's own rendition of "Claudette," 30 years after he wrote this hit for the Everly Brothers.
Includes liner notes by Tanja Crouch and Roy Orbison.

Very Best Of Roy Orbison
$21.94
When Anthrax released AMONG THE LIVING in 1987, the band was a part of a then-burgeoning heavy metal sub-genre called speed or thrash metal. This was an inversion of glam metal. The band members wore worn-out jeans and T-shirts, their long hair was hairspray-free, and not a smudge of make-up was applied to their unsightly mugs. Their music was dense, borrowing speed from punk and hardcore and mammoth guitar riffing from metal, and featured thought-provoking lyrics. AMONG THE LIVING not only served as Anthrax's commercial breakthrough, but (along with seminal releases by Metallica, ...

When it comes to the avant-garde, jazz purists and bop snobs have no interest in seeing any shades of gray. They lump all avant-garde jazz together and will tell you -- with a straight face -- that there are no major stylistic differences between the Either/Orchestra and a free jazz firebrand like saxophonist Charles Gayle (which is as ridiculous as saying that there are no major stylistic differences between Aerosmith and Slayer or between De La Soul and N.W.A). But avant-garde jazz isn't just one sound -- it is many different sounds -- and Locked in a Basement points to the fact that the trio Heernt represent the more melodic side of avant-garde jazz. No knowledgeable listener will mistake this 2005 date for the atonal splendor that John Coltrane ...
