The listing, CD: ROY ORBISON "FOR THE LONELY: 18 GREATEST HITS" has ended.
The CD and its case look practically new. The CD has a small, faint spiraling pattern on it that you may not even notice. That is from the refurbishing of the disc. It didn't really need it but I did it anyway because the clarity of the music improves by ten times. I do it to even my new CDs and DVDs! Anyway the CD hasn't been played much and sounds amazing!
There's been a flood of compilations and reissues since his death in 1988, but this terrific package by Rhino records remains one of the best single discs of Orbison material. Opening with his two regional rockabilly hits for Sun Records and spanning the huge Monument hits, it reinforces why Elvis Presley viewed the Big O as his biggest competition during the Army years and why Orbison was the first '50s rocker to join the Traveling Wilburys. No compilation yet available covers his entire career, but this one certainly represents the hit years.
