Description
Roy Orbison is often credited with having one of the most powerful voices in Rock n Roll. He certainly had one of the most distinctive ones; yet his operatic quavering and impressive range were used to portray a quiet and desperate vulnerability that was foreign to most of his rebelling, sex, drugs & rocknroll contemporaries. This vulnerability is probably why he was so very popular in the 60s, and why after a dip of almost twenty years he could easily reclaim his prominence in the 80s. When David Lynch (in)famously used his song In Dreams in Blue Velvet the public and Roy himself learned that there was a different side to his sultryness, and interest in his music was renewed.
