Roy Orbison - Roy Orbison Sings Don Gibson - 1967 - MGM Records - Country/Rock - Vinyl LP/Record Album - Used

This 1967 release on MGM Records features the haunting, operatic voice of Roy Orbison as he pays tribute to the songwriting of Country Music Hall of Famer Don Gibson. The album, catalog number SE-4424, is a standout example of the "countrypolitan" sound of the era, blending Orbison’s dramatic delivery with lush orchestral arrangements by Bill McElhiney. It includes the international hit single Too Soon to Know along with stirring renditions of classics like Sweet Dreams and Blue Blue Day. Recorded during a period of deep personal transition for Orbison, the collection highlights the natural synergy between Gibson’s themes of loneliness and the "Big O's" legendary ability to convey heartbreak. This used vinyl LP offers a compelling look at a specific moment in music history when two titans of melancholy combined their talents to create a soulful bridge between Nashville and the pop charts.
