Roy Orbison: Orbison 1955-1965 (7-CD Deluxe Box Set)

7-CD box (LP-size) with 104-page hardcover book, 189 tracks. Playing time approx. 482 mns.

Finally available again — the definitive Roy Orbison box set.

After years off the shelves, “Roy Orbison 1955–1965” (7-CD Deluxe Box Set) returns — a monument to one of the most singular voices in popular music. From the dusty beginnings in West Texas to the cinematic sweep of Nashville, this is the decade where Roy transformed rock ’n’ roll into high drama and heartbreak.

Across seven carefully curated CDs you follow the whole arc: the raw Sun Records spark (Ooby Dooby, Go! Go! Go!), the in-between experiments at RCA, and the masterworks of the Monument era — Only The Lonely, Running Scared, Crying, In Dreams, and Oh, Pretty Woman. You hear the shy kid become the architect of atmospheric pop, stretching song forms, stacking harmonies, and lifting every chorus into the stratosphere.

This is not another “best of.” It’s a complete sonic biography: hit singles, album cuts, early demos, rare session takes, and alternates — remastered with care and presented in a deluxe, LP-sized package. The accompanying book dives deep: session stories, rare photos, timelines, and essays that bring the studios, musicians, and midnight inspirations to life. You don’t just relive classics; you discover the creative mind that built them.

Why it matters now? Because nobody sounded like Roy Orbison. Not a teen idol, not a country crooner — a visionary who wrote his own rules and sang like a thunderbolt wrapped in velvet. These recordings still feel modern: the hush before the final note in Running Scared, the dream logic of In Dreams, the swagger of Oh, Pretty Woman. They’re the blueprint for cinematic pop — and they’re all here, in one place.

Why you need it

•The definitive 7-CD overview of Orbison’s golden decade, from Sun to Monument.

•Hits and hard-to-find gems, curated and remastered.

•Deluxe LP-format presentation with an in-depth book for collectors.

FOMO alert: this deluxe edition is back in stock — but only for a limited time. When it’s gone, it’s gone. If Roy’s voice ever stopped you in your tracks, this is the set you’ll return to again and again.

Customer evaluation for "Orbison 1955-1965 (7-CD Deluxe Box Set)"

From: Alvin On:27 Jul 2024

From: Klaus Brüser On:5 May 2018

Alles klasse

Auch diese Box ist, wie alles was ich bisher an Boxen von Bear Family gekauft habe, Spitzenqualität. Über die Discographie kann man natürlich geteilter Meinung sein. Aber wenn überhaupt, sind das für mich ganz kleine Abstriche. Und meine Bewertung bleibt trotzdem bei einer glatten 10.

From: Stefan Lind On:27 Sep 2017

Eindrucksvoll mit ein paar ärgerlichen Mängeln

Was die Klangqualität der Musik angeht, die üppigen Begleitbücher, die seltenen Fotos, da steht Bear Family für allerbeste Qualität, die zehn Punkte verdient hat.
Was mich an der Orbison-Box aber ärgert, ist die Discographie. Diese Manierismen, die ich da finde, ziehen sich durch alle Boxen, die ich besitze (dreimal Bill Haley, Fats Domino, Lesley Gore etc.). So lässt sich zwar aus den Angaben nachvollziehen, dass zum Beispiel die Titel "Paper Boy" und "With The Bug" von der Monument-Single Mo 409 sind (es steht jeweils dahinter), was aber die A-Seite und die B-Seite war, muss ich mir dazu denken. Bei vielen Songs weiß ich das, schwierig wird es aber bei unbekannteren Aufnahmen.
Auch gibt es zwar Bestellnummern von LPs (SM 14007 zum Beispiel), die stehen da aber einfach so, kommentarlos. Wie heißt denn die LP dazu? In welcher Reihenfolge sind die Songs darauf zu finden? Die begleitenden Bücher zu jeder Box sind so umfangreich, dass darin auch noch Platz wäre für eine ordentliche Discographie mit allen Singles und LPs des Künstlers oder der Gruppe (meinetwegen ohne Compilations, von denen es oft mehr als genug gibt).
Ein weiterer Punkt ist mir aufgefallen. Grundsätzlich finde ich es gut, dass die Stücke nicht mehr wie früher streng chronologisch auf den CDs zu finden sind, sondern auch mal inhaltlich sortiert. Im Falle der Orbison-Box ist es schön, die Live-Show der Teen Kings komplett auf CD 3 zu haben. Aber warum bitte sind die ersten Aufnahmen Roy Orbisons mit den Wink Westerners auf CD 2, und dann noch hinter den RCA-Sessions? Da passen sie nun gar nicht hin. In diesem Falle würde die Chronologie sogar Sinn ergeben: Schaut her, die allerersten Aufnahmen, mit denen wird die Box eröffnet, und dann auch noch der Klassiker "Oooby Dooby" (damit geht es tatsächlich los, aber mit einer späteren Session).
Zusammenfassend: Alles prima bis auf die Discographie. Aber die hat der Chef gemacht, und der lässt sich offenbar nicht reinreden. Na dann...

From: John Yonge On:19 Oct 2014

Excellent box set but...

This fabulous box set is beautifully presented in line with all the box sets I've purchased from Bear. However, it's easy to imagine that this set includes everything the 'Big O' recorded. It does not.

It doesn't even even include all his hits! For example, Breakin' Up Is Breakin' My Heart is not included along with other well known titles.
However, the majority are here and it's well worth buying.
