Customer Review: This new Orbison box set contains 4 cds of greatness. It is considered by many to be one of the greatest Roy Orbison products ever. Even Rolling Stone gave it a 5 star review. It pours greatness from the moment you open up the package..... Personally, I am very glad that some of those 1950s... more info
Customer Review: One word covers it all, EXCELLENT! A must have for music lovers, this live recording is sweet. It's hard to believe that they put on such a fantastic show with only one chance to get it right. Highly recommended!! Gene

Customer Review: I have always been a fan of Roy Orbisons. He was so popular when I was a teen.

The DCC comes across as I always felt dull, veiled and noisy sounding mush... more info

For those who grew up with Orbison's hits over transistor or car radios listening... more info
Customer Review: I purchased this as a set as it has an Audio-DVD with it. The regular DVD is fine, but you can't play the Audio-DVD as it has a CPPM code and it cannot be played by any DVD player or DVD program. It ask for the code which cannot be found. To be honest the only reason why I purchased it was for the... more info
Customer Review: It tells you something about the artist in question when, in well over 40 reviews, just two award this volume less than the 5-star maximum. Obviously, when it comes to Roy Orbison it takes a real nit-picker to find fault. He chalked up 32 Billboard Top/Hot 100 singles from 1956 to 1992 (two of... more info
