The fact that the person paid tribute to is also the star of the show makes it essential for all Orbison fans.As heavy as Orbison's friends are--the credits read like a Who's Who of '70s and '80s mainstream rock, from Bruce Springsteen to Elvis Costello--Orbison's unforgettable voice and presence never moves away from center stage. Whether reinterpreting '60s classics like "Only the Lonely" and the BLUE VELVET centerpiece "In Dreams," or handling excellent new material like Costello's "The Comedians"--the original lyrics, not the rewritten version Costello submitted for 1988's MYSTERY GIRL--Orbison sounds like he's at the peak of his game. Several excellent bonus tracks are also included. Producer: T-Bone Burnett, T-Bone Burnett Format: CD (1 Disc); Stereo Studio/Live: Live Guest Artist: Bruce Springsteen; K.D. Lang; J. D.
