Roy Orbison The Orbison Way on 180g LP.

2015 Remaster in Recognition of the 50th Anniversary of Orbison’s Signing to the MGM Label!

2015 marks a historic 50-year milestone for music legend Roy Orbison. On July 1, 1965, The Big O left Monument Records and signed with MGM Records, going on to release 11 studio albums, a film soundtrack and 27 singles over the course of the following eight years, and at the same time scoring another 11 worldwide Top 40 hits. In recognition of this golden anniversary of Orbison’s signing of one of the most lucrative and groundbreaking record deals of the era, Universal is releasing the all encompassing MGM Years box set and reissuing his output for the label in remastered stand alone 180g vinyl versions.

Roy’s signing with MGM Records gave him a newfound musical freedom that can be heard throughout his tenure with the label. Originally released in January of 1966, The Orbison Way is Roy’s second album for MGM and it finds him working in both orchestral and band settings with winning results on both accounts. The aptly titled 12-track affair shot to No. 11 on the U.K. charts and also yielded the two No. 2 singles “Crawling Back” and “Breakin Up is Breakin My Heart.” This re-issue is fully remixed and remastered to return the audio to its original glory. Package also includes fully restored original artwork.
