Roy Orbison - Oh, Pretty Woman (from Black & White Night) REACTION! Damn, Thats Bruce Springsteen?

[@Bijou2013]

Roy was a great friend to Johnny Cash and lived next door. One day, while Roy was on tour, his house burned down and two of his sons died in the fire. Roy went into his parents house and didn't come out for a couple of years - until Johnny talked him into coming out. Johnny bought the lot where the house had been so strangers would never live where his sons had died. Johnny planted a grape arbor. Years later, when the surviving son grew up, Johnny gave the land to him. Many musicians respected Roy! Everyone playing those guitars are world class musicians with their own solo careers!

[@leosag816]

I never heard the story about Johnny Cash. Thank you for sharing it. What a beautiful gesture. Roy survived so much tragedy, with his first wife dying in a motorcycle accident and then this fire taking 2 of his boys. 😢

[@rubyslippers8215]

I didn't know Roy's backstory, either. So much tragedy...😔And Johnny Cash was one class act.

[@ScrotieJohnson]

his wife was also hit by a truck in 1966 she died in his arms

[@jackielouise7538]

I knew about the tragedy of his sons dying in a house fire (and about what happened to his wife too), but I never knew about the part that Johnny Cash played in it. That has really touched me. That's such a kind and lovely thing to do ❤

[@js3599]

Only part of that story I never heard was where Roy locked himself in his parents house... I always heard he poured himself into his career to keep himself busy to deal with his grief...

[@versnelling9112]

On September 30, 1987, Orbison, then 51, staged a remarkable comeback concert with the help of guest musicians whom he had influenced: Jackson Browne, T Bone Burnett, Elvis Costello, k.d. lang, Bonnie Raitt, J.D. Souther, Bruce Springsteen, Tom Waits and Jennifer Warnes.

Pretty much everybody on the stage is in the Rock Hall of Fame.

[@tomward6689]

When you're Roy Orbison and you throw a party, everyone comes out to play and sing backup.

[@OldiesAl]

Roy was still only 51 when he recorded this show, around the time when The Travelling Wilburys were recording. He passed away 14 months later Roy's backing band was the TCB Band, which accompanied Elvis Presley from 1969 until his death in 1977: Glen Hardin on piano, James Burton on lead guitar, Jerry Scheff on bass, and Ronnie Tutt on drums. Male background vocalists, some of whom also joined in on guitar and keyboards, included Bruce Springsteen, Tom Waits, Elvis Costello, Jackson Browne, J.D. Souther and Steven Soles. The female background vocalists were k.d. lang, Jennifer Warnes, and Bonnie Raitt. During the end credits, several of the band members are shown talking about how Orbison influenced them. Several other celebrity admirers of Orbison were in the audience, including David Lynch, Billy Idol, Patrick Swayze, Billy Bob Thornton, Sandra Bernhard and Kris Kristofferson.

[@peterc5965]

Met Roy Orbison once - got to chat with him for about five minutes - he appeared on Joan rivers Show and performed In Dreams - I walked him back to his dressing room. He was so kind and humble - the crowd gave him a standing ovation and yet he stopped me and asked "How was it? I never know. I'm so focused on the song I can never tell if its any good." I was stunned. "You did awesome," I told him, "When you are at home to night watching, you'll be happy." "Good," he replied, "Thanks, that take a load off my mind." Such a cool experience.

[@billboyd9028]

I believe that by this point in Roy Orbison's life he was also cutting tracks with "The Traveling Wilburys" - another pre-eminent "super group"....

[@jackhorkheimer]

Yeah BP did a react to them a week or so ago, check it out

[@bobschenkel7921]

If you were on the stage with Roy Orbison for this show, you were a Superstar in the music world. In addition to the folks listed below by others, the Drummer was Ron Tutt, who used to Drum for Elvis Presley, the First Elvis, and you were right, that was Billy Idol in the audience, but not on the stage. LOL. Tom Waits on the Keys, Bonnie Raitt as a backup singer, WOW!

[@sj6052]

Back & White Night has been one of my all time favorite performances. If you haven't watched the entire concert, I highly recommend it. Orbison was a fabulous song writer and performer in his own right. The additional talent on stage, playing all Orbison songs, is such a wonderful tribute.

[@ptrlxc]

The first guitar solo artist is the famous James Burton, who was the lead guitarist for Elvis Presley, which is why all the rest of the stars on stage took a back seat, they idolized him.

[@gregjones73]

That's one of the most talent packed stages of all-time. You know you've got some sway in the industry when you can get Tom Waits to just sit there and play keys for you.

[@VincentManiscalco]

When Elvis Presley says this is the greatest singer, I’ve ever heard that’s one hell of a compliment !! Roy Orbison can capture your soul with his voice ! Just to show you how incredible Roy Orbison was he’s got a hell of a crew back in them up in the black and white nights ! Superstars playing backup for the incomparable Roy Orbison.. amazing

[@roi025]

"Oh, Pretty Woman" is undoubtedly one of the most acclaimed rock n' roll songs of all time. Written by Roy Orbison with his faithful guitarist Bill Dees, the song quickly became one of the main hits in the artist's career. It was released in August 1964 as a single from the album of the same name and was inspired not precisely by Julia Roberts but rather by Orbison's wife, Claudette. On September 30, 1987 at the age of 51, Roy Orbison held a spectacular concert that marked his return after a long time out of the public spotlight and that included the participation of a constellation of great artists whom the musician had influenced, among them: Jackson Browne, T Bone Burnett, Elvis Costello, K.D. Lang, Bonnie Raitt, J.D. Souther, Bruce Springsteen, Tom Waits, Jennifer Warnes among others. This extraordinary session was later turned into a television special entitled "Roy Orbison and Friends, A Black and White Night" which was broadcast on the Cinemax network in January 1988 a few months before the musician's death. In 1991, the Grammys would posthumously award Roy Orbison in the category of Best Male Pop Vocal Performance precisely for this magnificent session, from which we can extract this fabulous version of "Oh, Pretty Woman" characterized by a legendary guitar counterpoint between none other than James Burton and Bruce Springsteen.

[@Alison-h8e]

Deep Dive on that stage alone , Tom Waits on piano , Bruce Springsting , Elvis Costello..... OH MY!!!! Just the beginning and they left their ego's at the door!! Amazing!!!!

[@declanmoore9005]

Elvis Costello came away from that day buzzing ❤

[@tarafied7322]

Pretty much everyone on that stage is a star, a unique musician in their own right. Half the people in the audience are stars. Roy Orbison is a megastar amongst the other stars, and everyone wanted to work with him on this special, and if they couldn't, they wanted to watch it happen. It was a magical HBO special, huge.

[@katrinaprescott5911]

It makes me think of Earle Scruggs and Friends, "Foggy Mountain Breakdown". Different genre; same vibe. Masters of the art enjoying playing together.

[@d.kyrstede3556]

Roy Orbison and Friends: A Black and White Night is a 1988 Cinemax television special originally broadcast on January 3, 1988, presenting a performance by singer/songwriter Roy Orbison and the TCB Band with special guests including Bruce Springsteen, k.d. lang and others. The special was filmed entirely in black and white. After the broadcast, the concert was released on VHS and Laserdisc, and a live album was released in 1989. Background The special consisted of a performance of many of Orbison's hits at the Ambassador Hotel's Cocoanut Grove nightclub in Los Angeles, filmed on September 30, 1987, approximately fourteen months before his death. Three songs ("Blue Bayou", "Claudette", and "Blue Angel") were filmed but not included in the original broadcast due to time constraints. Orbison's backing band was the TCB Band, which accompanied Elvis Presley from 1969 until his death in 1977: Glen Hardin on piano, James Burton on lead guitar, Jerry Scheff on bass, and Ronnie Tutt on drums. Male background vocalists, some of whom also joined in on guitar and keyboards, included Bruce Springsteen, Tom Waits, Elvis Costello, Jackson Browne, J.D. Souther and Steven Soles. The female background vocalists were k.d. lang, Jennifer Warnes, and Bonnie Raitt. During the end credits, several of the band members are shown talking about how Orbison influenced them. Several other celebrity admirers of Orbison were in the audience, including David Lynch, Billy Idol, Patrick Swayze, Billy Bob Thornton, Sandra Bernhard and Kris Kristofferson. The following morning at 7:42am, a violent 5.9 magnitude earthquake struck the Whittier section of Los Angeles. Several chandeliers in the ballroom had collapsed on the master film and videotape recordings that had captured the performance. When the wreckage was cleared, no damage had been done.

“Music scholars suggest that Orbison has a three-or four-octave range and his powerful, impassioned voice earns him the sobriquet “the Caruso of Rock.” In fact, The Big O and Enrico Caruso were the only 20th century tenors capable of hitting E over high C. In 1963, he opens for The Beatles, even though he didn’t know who they were, The opening night, he did 14 encores before The Beatles even performed. No pressure for The Beatles”

[@dennisschank7748]

The dude with the beard is J. D. Souther. He had a hand in some top music in the early to mid 70's. He co-wrote several hit songs with the Eagles, and with James Taylor along with others. He had a folk duo band with Glen Frey called Longbranch Pennywhistle before Glen started the Eagles. He had one big hit for himself called "You're Only Lonely". Great song, in my opinion. You should check it out.

[@pamelabryer9744]

JD Souther...John David "J.D." Souther (born November 2, 1945)[2] is an American singer, songwriter, and actor. He has written and co-written songs recorded by Linda Ronstadt and Eagles. Souther is known for his songwriting abilities, especially in the field of country rock. He co-wrote some of the biggest hits for Eagles, including "Best of My Love", "Victim of Love", "Heartache Tonight", and "New Kid in Town". "How Long", which appears on Eagles' Long Road Out of Eden, was written by Souther and originally recorded on his first solo album in 1972. Souther recorded two major hit songs in his solo career: "You're Only Lonely" (1979) and "Her Town Too" (1981), a duet with his longtime friend James Taylor.

I saw Roy Orbison at a record hop at The Surf Nantasket in Hull Massachusetts in 1961 or 62. I was maybe 13 yrs. old. Arnie Ginsburg of the Night Train Show on radio station WMEX 1510 in Boston gave me the tickets. I didn't know who he was until he started singing "Only the Lonely", then I knew he was A7 on the juke box at Almy's Dept. Store in Salem. Been a fan since then and always kept his music! His voice never changed while he sang. The Black & White Night happened about 25 years later when The Big "O" was 51yrs.old. He died 14 months later if my memory serves me well! We still miss him and the music he would have written and sang Black Pegasus!
