Roy Orbison black and white night dvd &sacd

I had read the reviews which said this was a great dvd, but when i heard it and saw it for myself i was truly amazed. The quality of the video transfer is crystal clear, but the best by far is the dts 5.1 sound. I have a middle of the range system , but the quality of the sound made the hairs stand up on my neck. Pretty woman was just unbelivable. It felt you were actually there, watching the total ease Roy hits those top notes,truly a God given voice.

A DVD For Everyone

This DVD with Roy Orbison is for all music lovers, not just for his fans. It's interesting to learn how he has contributed to the music world, and how his songs have been used and reproduced by many of our leading musical artists. He influenced all genres of modern music, including Elvis Presley, the Beatles, and many others. When you watch this DVD, you will understand why.

A Fantastic Treat

I had seen this concert years ago on PBS on my small TV & loved it then. Now I have a big screen TV with fantastic sound so my pleasure at Roy Orbisons incredible voice has multiplied! There has never been anyone to match his voice range & his harmonies. One thing happily surprised me. If you look quickly & carefully you can see a few celebrities in the audience. Like Patrick Swayze, before he was famous. And the guitarist that backs up Mr. Orbison is the same man who was Elvis' lead guitar in "Elvis: Aloha from Hawaii". I may be 64 yrs. old but you can surly "Rock" with this concert!

No shades of gray

I've seen the Black and White evening several times on PBS. Nothing against PBS, but I wanted the DVD without having to make a hefty donation, so I checked out [...]. The only complaint I have with the DVD is that the sound is a bit uneven; you can barely hear the backup singers and some of the band on most of the songs. But you can still hear Roy and that's the main thing.

Key performance

Filmed all in black and white, this is a non-commented recording of the performance only. Roy plays the usual songs and is backed-up by a star-studded cast of Roy's fans. Too bad that Bruce Springsteen keeps trying to take the limelight. Wikipedia has an excellent write-up.
