Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
One of the most distinctive vocalists in the history of rock and roll, Roy Orbison was in the midst of a well-deserved comeback in 1987 when he performed this special concert for television, beautifully filmed in black and white and featuring some famous friends helping him out. Orbison is joined onstage by Bruce Springsteen, Elvis Costello, Bonnie Raitt, k.d. lang, Jackson Browne, Tom Waits, and T.Bone Burnett as he sings "Oh, Pretty Woman," "Only the Lonely," "It's Over," "Blue Bayou," "Crying," "In Dreams," "Running Scared," and ten other classics. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi
Only the lonely -- Dream baby (How long must I dream) -- Blue bayou -- The comedians -- Ooby dooby -- Leah -- Running scared -- Uptown -- In dreams -- Crying -- Candyman -- Go, go, go (Down the line) -- Mean woman blues -- (All I can do is) Dream you -- Claudette -- It's over -- Oh, pretty woman.
