| | Roy Orbison 16 Biggest Hits CD Roy Orbison Discography of CDs
All tracks have been digitally remastered using HDCD technology.
The title here is, of course, not entirely accurate. None of Orbison's '80s material is here, which means no duets with Emmylou Harris or kd lang, and nothing from his Travelling Wilbury/final-stellar-solo-album period. This is, however, pretty much the best of Orbison's '60s tenure at Monument Records, and within those confines it's something of an embarrassment of riches, with all the big, paranoid operatic ballads that Orbison more or less patented--"Running Scared," "Only the Lonely," "Crying,"--along with more conventional, albeit ethereally lovely songs like "Blue Bayou" and "In Dreams." There's also a smattering of rockers including "Pretty Woman," whose opening guitar riff is by now imprinted on the basic genetic material of most of the human race. Obviously, essential listening.

Sahg's debut struck a welcome victory for traditional heavy metal -- or modern doom, as some might call it -- by fearlessly worshiping at Black Sabbath's altar, without coming across like a simple nostalgia act or tribute group. Not bad for a bunch of normally corpse painted, Norwegian black metal musicians, stepping away from their regular gigs with bands like Gorgoroth, Audrey Horne, and Manngard in order to bring a fresh perspective into this timeless genre. Naturally, they're not the only ones (2006 alone also yielded Texans the Sword's impressive debut and a second fine outing by Sweden's Krux), but Sahg I arguably struck closest to heavy metal's purist aesthetic, without confining itself to the predominantly creeping tempos (although that angle is certainly represented by intentionally labored power chord laments like "Repent," and portions of "Rivers Running Dry," "Black Passage," etc.). Rather, think back to Sabbath's triumphant releases with Ronnie James Dio, Heaven and Hell and Mob Rules, for the primary inspiration behind Sahg's specialty: moderately galloping heavy metal sorties, exemplified by such as "The Executioner Undead," "The Alchemist," "Soul Exile," and "Boundless Demise" -- all of which owe as much ...

Radiohead rebound from one-hit wonder status with this sophomore classic--the first to blueprint their operatic sonics.
On only their second outing Oxford's Radiohead fulfilled their huge potential, fashioning an album whose relentlessly downbeat tone was offset by an ability to formulate consistently winning melodies. The title track and "Just" throw some customary rock poses, but for the most part the band displayed a far more expansive approach. Thom Yorke emerged from the woodwork with a new-found vocal confidence, revealing a striking falsetto on two of the album's strongest tracks, "Fake Plastic Trees" and "High & Dry." The last three songs build inexorably to the stunning emotional climax of "Street Spirit (Fade Out)" with a control and poise that showcased the band's new maturity.
This set includes the original album plus a second CD of rarities, including demos, sessions, and live recordings, plus a DVD with a variety of promotional music videos, TV performances, and filmed concert performances, as well as a series of postcards. Included on the DVD are promo videos, The Astoria, London Live, 05/27/94, 2 Metre Session, Holland, 02/27/95, Later With Jools, Holland, 05/27/95, and Top of ...
