Mar 8th, 2012 by mallen
In five short years, beginning at the age of 23, Roy Orbison recorded some of the most influential American music ever made. Hits like “Only The Lonely,” “Running Scared,” “Crying,” “In Dreams,” “It’s Over,” and “Oh, Pretty Woman,” took Fred Foster’s fledgling Monument Records and transformed it into one of the most powerful labels in the world, securing Orbison’s place internationally as a rock and roll immortal. This CD includes the original Mono mixes of all the A sides of the original twenty Monument singles for the first time on compact disc.
