Roy Orbison was a highly influential American singer-songwriter, born on April 23, 1936 in Vernon, Texas. He achieved remarkable success in the UK during the "beat boom" of 1963-5 and experienced a resurgence with the Traveling Wilburys shortly before his untimely death at the age of 52. Inducted into both the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame in 1987 and the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1989, Orbison's impact on music is undeniable.

With his unique voice and emotive songwriting, Roy Orbison captivated audiences worldwide. His contributions to rock and roll have left an indelible mark on the industry. Alongside his successful solo career, he collaborated with other legendary artists as part of the iconic supergroup, Traveling Wilburys.

Influenced by artists such as The Everly Brothers and Buddy Holly, Orbison's musical style encompassed elements of rockabilly, pop, and country. His timeless hits like "Oh Pretty Woman" and "Crying" continue to resonate with listeners today. Despite his tragic passing outside Nashville in December 1988, Roy Orbison's legacy lives on through his music.

Third Man Records was founded in 2001 by Jack White, Ben Swank, and Ben Blackwell in Detroit. In 2010, they established a physical location in Nashville, TN. The TMR building serves as the company headquarters and houses the label's offices, a vinyl record store, photo studio, dark room, and performance stage.
The label is best known for producing bands such as The White Stripes, The Raconteurs, and The Dead Weather. They have become synonymous with high-quality vinyl records and have created a strong presence in the music industry.
With their commitment to preserving the art of vinyl records and their dedication to supporting emerging artists, Third Man Records continues to be a driving force in the music e-commerce world.

While largely overshadowed by the pop hits he crafted for Monument later in his career, Roy Orbisons work for Sun is deserving of praise. From the aching of 'Ooby Dooby' or the proto rockabilly of' Go! Go! Go!' Roys work here is solid and energetic enough that all of Texas should be proud. And if you cant shake it to 'Chicken Hearted' you need to check your pulse.
