A soaring voice
Pros: Roy's greatest hits (mostly)
Cons: I wish the concert lasted longer.
Most people know Roy Orbison from his big hit "Oh Pretty Woman" from the 1960s. But Roy Orbison had a string of hits starting about the time of Elvis' debut (they started at Sun Studios)and the string of hits ended with Pretty Woman. Beautiful songs tailored to Roy's incredible vocal range and soulful expression. This DVD was filmed in black and white and the camera work is quite good. The sound which features the usual Dolby 5.1 mix also has DTS (digital theater sound) which I prefer on my home theater system. ...


A video history of The Beatles.
Pros: Very interesting for fans
Cons: None
Covers the history of the group and helps dispel a lot of silly rumors in the process. Good video and sound quality for the most part considering some of the source material was not well preserved or came from amateur sources. I have re-watched this many times and always enjoy it. Highly recommended. ...
