Ah.....I understand what happened. You don't have to explain :)
Out of stock but I ordered it, hopefully have it next week. Seemed rude not to buy something else so picked this up but unfortunately working today so no chance to listen yet.
Track list looks good though. Tomorrow evening, I hope.
Lucky sod ;(

From E Bay - The Very Best of Roy Orbison – Roy Orbison – Monument Records, 1972, WSLP 18045 Stereo.
Mint condition vinyl with stunning SQ. See review below from Vivascene The Music Magazine - says it all!!
Famed songwriter Boudleaux Bryant pronounced Roy Orbison’s “Monument Period” as one of Roy’s “topmost pinnacles of achievement and one of the great contributions to the world of popular music”. Yet not nearly enough attention has been paid to the main underlying factor of his success, that being the singular sonic purity and beauty of these recordings. Much is owed particularly to sound engineer Bill Porter, who has been called the best engineer in the history of music. Porter not only oversaw every one of Orbison’s Monument hits, he also produced engineered the records of everyone from Elvis to Patsy Cline. No one ever made a great singer sound as good as Porter could.
In fact, Roy never had another hit record after he left Monument – not during his lifetime. It took the wizardry of Jeff Lynne (of ELO fame) to record Roy’s final album, Mystery Girl, in the late ’80s. Still, even Lynne’s talents pale in comparison to these Monument tracks.
From a whisper to a cry, from the slightest diminuendo to the greatest crescendo, no one in popular music ever matched Roy’s semi-operatic range.
If you purchase no other vinyl record on this list of outstanding vinyl, buy this one. Hunt it down, insist on an original pressing from the ’70s and pay any price for one in good condition. You’ll never forget the sonic impact of this recording.
Key tracks: “Crying”, “Running Scared”, “Oh Pretty Woman”, “In Dreams”.
