No less of an authority than Elvis Presley said that Roy Orbison was the best singer in rock ‘n’ roll, and that voice of his—high-pitched, emotional, almost ethereal—is in fine form on this album, originally released in the 1970s. While most people know Orbison for his pop material, he started off as a rockabilly artist for Sun Records, which is what this collection focuses on.
Curiously, Orbison didn’t like most of his work from this era, which is a shame because it was great; “Rockhouse,” “You’re My Baby,” and “Mean Little Mama” have become rockabilly standards, and every girl with a Bettie Paige poster in her dorm room knows the words to “Devil Doll.
