1. Italo disco act from mid-80s by Ubaldo Zambelli
2. Reaching all the way back to Bob Dylan and the Band's pioneering blend of mythic Americana and shaggy rock & roll, alongside more recent points of comparison like Built to Spill, Modest Mouse, and My Morning Jacket, Roy (a band, not a dude) blend spiky post-Pavement indie rock with folk and country influences for a sound that's connected to the musical past but not beholden to it. For over a decade, singer and guitarist Brian Cook and drummer Dave Verellen were the mainstays of Botch, a Seattle post-hardcore act specializing in heavy riffs and showy time-signature shifts. Roy began as a side project in 2002, bringing Cook and Verellen together with singer and guitarist Ben Verellen and bassist Mike Cooper. Naming themselves after the small rural town near Tacoma, Roy debuted with 2003's Tacomatose EP, followed by 2004's Big City Sin and Small Town Redemption. Though Roy toured extensively behind their two records, the band went on a temporary hiatus while Cook and Ben Verellen turned their focus to another side project, the more Botch-like heavy math rockers These Arms Are Snakes. Roy reconvened in 2005 to write and record their second full-length album, Killed John Train, which was released by Lujo Records in the spring of 2006.

(Sha-la-la, dooby wah, dum-dum-dum, yeh-yeh)
Oh blue angel, don't you cry just because he said goodbye
Oh, ah-ah-ah, no don't cry
Oh, blue angel, have no fear brush away lonely teardrops
Hey hey, whoa-whoa, oh (yeah-yeah, dum, wah-wah-wah-wah)

I had the magical experience of seeing Roy perform live, and can assure everyone that he sounded exactly as he did on records. No gimmicks, just a voice from heaven. He had the crowd eating out of his hands and took 27 curtain calls.
@divergentsenior
He was so effortless. Pure talent.
Seeing him in person was a true blessing.

Imagine the hundreds of millions of mind, spirit, souls this incredible man's career has touched? Then imagine when passing he felt those feelings of everyone of them at the same time? Gone but possibly never forgotten if passed down lovingly? Thanks! Namaste Silly Smiler unilliam

I would have paid anything to see Roy Orbison preforming, he's the only singer that brings tears to my eyes ..
@Sergey_Naumov
For me, it's Orbison's favorite song, I heard it for the first time a long time ago and was very amazed at that time... I especially like this style, the spirit of harmony of chords and arrangement. Transitions to parallel minor in the first verse, vocal group, sonorous guitars, piano and theremin. The velvet style of music of those years, the early 60s, the Nashville style. I haven't heard anything more perfect yet. Greetings from Russia everybody!)
