Free Music Review: Roy Orbison's Monument Records Debut
Hit: 5 Stars
A sincere "Thank You" to Barbara Orbison for reissuing her beloved late husband's and deeply adored singer, ROY ORBISON, first Monument Records album in a pristine remastered edition with 4 "bonus" tracks. It's delight to listen to and finally own a copy of Roy's first hit album after many years of wondering what this incredibly gifted vocalist-songwriter's groundbreaking recordings sounded like as intended album packages. While I've had his late 1950's SUN RECORDS recordings in my personal collection for years, Roy Orbison's MONUMENT RECORDS album catalogue is the most coveted of his entire career. Anyone from a casual fan to a collector will pointedly inform you that those are the treasured recordings most ultimately desired from this superb artist. This is the profound era of Roy Orbison 'coming into his own' as an artist - he'd honed his sound to perfection and was at the summit of a decade long plateau peak, the subsequent MGM Records years notwithstanding any major hit singles or albums. [Sometimes I wonder if record companies 'buy out' or lure an artist with a lucrative contract simply to control/limit their radio/chart successes. For example, look at relationships between John Mellencamp & CBS - Ricky Nelson & Decca who both left their hit making record companies only to slide into semi-obscurity. Were they intentionally drowned out of the spotlight? Nevertheless, both artists remained highly talented powers.]It's difficult to find Roy's vintage vinyl LPs without paying a hefty price, let alone finding one in near mint condition for my collector's hobby purpose - and I am very picky on that front. His great "hits" will always please, but, the tracks waiting to be rediscovered and heard on his full length albums are the real gems. And, what grand treasures they are! It's wonderful to see Roy Orbison documentaries and concert shows on PBS, in keeping his memory and legacy alive for generations to come, but, finally, more of his classic recordings are being made available to be cherished by his legions of long time and new fans who hunger for more Roy Orbison music than the common reissues already on the market for dozens of years. The mystery of these long sought after recordings are seeing the light of day after decades of gathering dust in record company vaults or some of which were only available in highly priced CD imports. During his lifetime, Roy Orbison delivered some of the finest Pop-Rock-Country recordings from exhilerating 'cover' versions to his own immaculately executed original musical concepts, and he remains one of the very few ultimately breathtaking vocalists of modern music history. He remains an imposing and unforgettable force in modern music, and rightfully so.
