  • Roy Orbison performs "Mean Woman Blues" live at the Farm Aid concert in Champaign, Illinois on September 22, 1985. Farm Aid was started by Willie Nelson, Neil Young and John Mellencamp in 1985 to keep family farmers on the land and has worked since then to make sure everyone has access to good food from family farmers. Dave Matthews joined Farm Aid's board of directors in 2001.

    Farm Aid's performances are donated by the artists in order to raise funds and raise awareness for family farmers. They've raised their voices to help - what can you do?

    Ha ha 1.) The audience didn't know what to make of it at first but by the end Roy had them eating out of his hand. And 2.) - When you're lead guitarist is in the wrong band LOL! But Roy was so chill, he gives the guy another measure.......class act all the way. Roy is legend!

    I think we can all do without the Marty McFly guitar solo. Roy Orbison's voice however is the stuff legends are made of!!!

      It doesn't sound like you are a lead guitarist or a musician. It's clear you didn't read the body language of Roy Orbision correctly. This type of body language is common among musicians who are musically dissatisfied with another player.

    That guitar solo was shockingly awful. It totally wrecked the middle of the song and couldn't have been less suited to Roy Orbison's music. Who is that disgrace of a guitarist anyway?

      Yes, he did Alan James. I'm a lead guitarist also. Roy was trying to give the bass player that musician's reciprocating look of disapproval but the bass player didn't get it. Roy looked at him twice. The lead did not fit at all. Hard rock shredding on a 50s song. No kidding you were one of Roy's lead guitarists. How wonderful. You are no doubt very professional. I bet you had a lot of fun playing on stage with Roy and others Alan.

    Roy is fantastic here as always. It's a great shame about that guitar solo in the middle though it absolutely wrecks the song - it's like he thinks that he's playing with Metallica! Not tasteful at all - I guess that this is why Roy got James Burton to play for him in Black and White Night.
