| | Roy Orbison : Sings Lonely and Blue (Mobile Fidelity) - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09) |
 | | This gold-disc version of Roy's first official album (his Sun sides were released on LP after the success of "Only the Lonely," the kick-off track here) is an absolute feast for the ears, sounding like a collection of true stereo control room playbacks with remarkable clarity. |
 | | It was with this album that Orbison finally defined the style that would bring him to the top of the charts. |
 | | Tracks like "Blue Avenue," "Cry," and "Blue Angel" show him at top form, with Fred Foster's production adding just the right ripple and tinsel to the proceedings. |
