Black & White Night [CD/DVD]

by Orbison

Overview

The best recorded Roy Orbison live disc ever issued, taken from the soundtrack of the HBO concert from the 1980s with VIP guests like Bruce Springsteen and Elvis Costello, this was a sort of magical video, and the performances are splendid, along with the good feelings involved. On the other hand, the performances are extremely reverential to the established studio versions of the songs (all of the hits are here), and intended to mimic them, so this isn't quite the same as a live album as it would have been done way back when. The pity is that neither Monument nor MGM ever taped any complete concerts by Orbison from the '60s, and all we have are the TV appearances from Europe. [Black & White Night was released on an 86-track CD/DVD in 2017, which includes rehearsal and alternate takes, demos, and alternate versions.] ~ Bruce Eder
