“In Dreams” by Roy Orbison - album review
features in: Album Chart of 1963 ● Album Chart of the Decade: 1960s |
The world’s finest exponent of the soulful tremor returns with a stronger, more consistent set than last years “Crying”, packing outright classics such as “In Dreams” and “No One Will Ever Know”. Wherever he delves into the songwriter’s book, the results here are devoid of cheese – “Shahdaroba” has lovely shades of the Middle East, and the reading of “Beautiful Dreamer” is exquisite. Another sophisticated winner…
