Reviews4 stars out of 5 -- "Orbison was a pioneer of jaw-dropping rock balladry that set his eerie tenor into woozy orchestral dramas that seem to have presaged the entire corpus of David Lynch.", 5 stars out of 5 -- "Roy Orbison was a superhero of song....He became someone extraordinary when his weeping tenor took flight....This is the only anthology that does justice to every stage of Orbison's career...", 5 stars out of 5 -- "THE SOUL OF ROCK'N'ROLL might well be the nearest pop music ever gets to producing a Bible.", "His idiosyncratic songwriting drew from disparate genres, opening new vistas for early rock'n'roll.", "This four-CD compilation will finally help you trace his development as one of rock 'n' roll's most soulful and preeminent singers from his early beginnings doing country rockabilly in the mid-1950s to the late 1980s..."

  • One of the best

    One of the best box sets I've come across & a box set I didn't know existed until I came across it here on eBay. I purchased it primarily for disc one which contains a whole host of early Sun era live tracks & demos from around 1957-58, a great companion piece to Rollercoaster records cd 'Are You Ready?'. Disc two contains the hits from the early 60s whilst discs 3 & 4 contain hits from the late 60s plus rare soundtrack songs & the 80s hits plus soundtrack songs. Overall highly recommended.
