      There's something interesting that you younger reactors may not be aware of. At least not fully.
      These versions on UA-cam, as good as they might sound to you, are VERY low quality, very low resolution, "copies of copies of copies".
      If you ever heard these songs, as they were meant to be heard, on a record or 8-track tape (a later technology, late 60s thru the 70s). Especially an analog record, or a REALLY good, high resolution CD, and over a really high end stereo system, in a room with really good acoustics...your mind would be blown again,
      Just imagine the difference between taking a picture with your phone, of a GLORIOUS "picture" of an even more glorious painting in museum, that was painted by a grand master, back in the day. A painting that will inevitably be a bit faded and slightly covered in grime from the decades, and so is, thru no fault of its own, no longer at its best, unless some group of cleaning & restoration artists restores it to its original glory.
      And then you react to the faded and time smudged "picture of a picture"...on your limited little phone screen. That's how you're having to experience these wonderful songs, through no fault of your own. You simply don't have the original pristine, full quality, recordings available to you. Nor are they playing back over a "room filling" hi-fi system.
      And yet, just like a pretty picture of a picture of a beautiful painting, on a tiny phone screen, is still beautiful, these stunning songs still retain enough of their original glory to be impressive.
      And that is the way, the older of us heard these songs originally. Except most of us heard it over a limited car AM, or later, an FM radio, or whatever our parents had in our homes. So it was still not the best. But believe me, it was still better than a UA-cam video on a phone, even over headphones. Because the audio source is original and better.
      When you get a chance to listen to 60s and 70s music in "straight through to the speakers" analog, over a great stereo system...you're going to have your mind blown again. There is a resonance, a vibrance to the sound that cannot come through UA-cam for some reason. I think it's an analog thing.
      I hope you get to experience it sometime.

      @JV Yes, love that song, In Dreams!
      Luuurve Roy Orbison. Nobody could sing like him, except as Jovaughn said, Elvis!
      The song Blue Bayou is great too. Plus, his song,
      Only The Lonely, as people have mentioned and of course,
      Pretty Woman. JV might recognise that one from the film of the same name, it was its theme tune!
      Not sure this recording is the greatest, but Roy songs like an angel, as always. He had a tragic life but never let it affect his work. I think he had poor eyesight, or his eyes were sensitive to the light, something like that, which was why he always wore the sunglasses?
      A lot of rock stars started wearing sunglasses, after Roy!
      Yes, sixties music is brilliant!
      ps. I have a theory that all of the male singers, since Elvis & Roy Orbison have been trying to sing like him! 🎶

    Love Roy and the ELO cover on the wall.
    You probably are reacting to these vintage voices because they are not ridiculously processed like today. Minus a bit of reverb, you are hearing natural voices coming straight from the source recorded on analog systems.
    Roy has many hits including Pretty Woman and one that shows off his operatic voice well, the haunting In Dreams, which I recommend as your next Orbison reaction.

    I was named after this song. My father who is now 73 met Roy Orbison when he was in the army he was my fathers hero. My daddy was able to talk with him for a few minutes & get a photo. He told him if he had a baby girl he was going to name her Leah & obviously he did. When my daddy & I are missing each other we send "Leah" to each other. I've seen my incredibly strong, wonderful father cry twice...once when his own father died & the other time was when Roy Orbison died. I've been listening to Roy Orbison my entire life. I never get tired of hearing his beautiful voice.

    There's a group named Sha Na Na , a 50's revival group who appeared in the movie Grease. They had their own tv show back in the early 80's. They covered this song, with Johnny Contardo on lead vocals. He sung it so well Roy Orbison himself has said Johnny had sang it much better than he did. I have to agree as much as I love Roy Orbison. What a tragic life he lead, very sad.

    The Beatles were huge fans of Roy Orbison. They used to do some of his songs in their early days. They toured with Roy in the early days. Roy was the headliner and The Beatles were just part of the tour. Half way through the tour The Beatles popularity took off and the fans were screaming for The Beatles. Roy stepped aside and allowed The Beatles to become the headliners of the tour and he was now the second banana. This is the kind of person Roy Orbison was. Huge star, but he did not let his ego get in the way when he knew The Beatles were now more popular than he, and it was now The Beatles' tour. Great man, great talent, great singer, great song writer. The Great Roy Orbison.

  • @TheBohemianAngels

    You are correct in saying you thought Orbison was Elvis. He did sound a lot like Elvis. He had the same vibrato and style of singing. To his credit, Roy did have a higher range style of singing thats for sure. Now Elvis and Roy came out of the same location Studio, Sun Records. So they knew each other very very well. Since Elvis got a head start I believe that Roy mimicked Elvis's style being pushed I'm sure by Sam Phillips the owner of Sun Records guessing Phillips was trying to find another Elvis. Anyways, they both were friends and respected each other. When Elvis returned from the army in 1960, he was asked who he saw as his biggest threat or competition, Elvis simply responded, Roy Orbison.

    You've done this, and "Only the Lonely." Check out "In Dreams."
    Many of his songs are sad. He lost hid first wife in a motorcycle accident, and two sons in a house fire.
    He wrote a lot of his own material. And he has several songs that don't follow a standard verse/chorus structure but just keep building and building to a climax.
    His older voice, such as when he did all these songs in the Black and White Night concert, 25 or 30 years after the original studio recordings, is very good too. Different from his young voice. But each is good in its own way.

    Actually Jayvee - Elvis Presley said that "ROY ORBISON" was the best singer in Rock and Roll. He was a writer as well as a singer that had quite a range to his voice and can sing low to very high. There is a tragedy in his life because while he was on tour his home with his wife and children were killed back in the early 60s. He remarried much later in life and has a wife and has children too. It was sad for a long time when his family was killed.
