Roy Orbison us

Roy Kelton Orbison (23 de abril de 1936 - 6 de diciembre de 1988) fue un cantautor estadounidense, mejor conocido por su voz distintiva y poderosa, composiciones complejas y baladas oscuras y emocionales. Orbison creció en Texas y comenzó a cantar en una banda de rockabilly / country y western en la escuela secundaria hasta que firmó con Sun Records en Memphis. Su mayor éxito llegó con Monument Records entre 1960 y 1964, cuando 22 de sus cancione ... s se colocaron en el Billboard Top Forty, incluyendo "Only the Lonely", "Crying" y "Oh, Pretty Woman". Su carrera se estancó durante la década de 1970, pero varias versiones de sus canciones y el uso de "In Dreams" en Blue Velvet de David Lynch revivieron su carrera en la década de 1980. En 1988, se unió al supergrupo Travelling Wilburys con George Harrison, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty y Jeff Lynne y también lanzó un nuevo álbum en solitario. Murió de un infarto en diciembre de ese año, en el cenit de su resurgimiento. Su vida se vio empañada por la tragedia, incluida la muerte de su primera esposa y sus dos hijos mayores en accidentes separados. Orbison era un barítono natural, pero los estudiosos de la música han sugerido que tenía un rango de tres o cuatro octavas. La combinación de la voz poderosa y apasionada de Orbison y los complejos arreglos musicales llevaron a muchos críticos a referirse a su música como operística, dándole el sobrenombre de "el Caruso del Rock". Elvis Presley y Bono han declarado que su voz fue, respectivamente, la más grande y más distintiva que jamás hayan escuchado. Si bien la mayoría de los hombres del rock and roll de las décadas de 1950 y 1960 mostraban una masculinidad desafiante, muchas de las canciones de Orbison, en cambio, transmitían una vulnerabilidad silenciosa y desesperada. Era conocido por actuar mientras estaba parado y solo, vistiendo ropa negra y gafas de sol oscuras que le daban un aire de misterio a su personalidad. Orbison fue iniciado en la segunda clase del Salón de la Fama del Rock and Roll en 1987 por su admirador Bruce Springsteen. El mismo año fue incluido en el Salón de la Fama de los Compositores de Nashville y dos años después en el Salón de la Fama de los Compositores. Rolling Stone colocó a Orbison en el número 37 en su lista de Los mejores artistas de todos los tiempos y en el número 13 en su lista de Los 100 mejores cantantes de todos los tiempos. En 2002, la revista Billboard incluyó a Orbison en el puesto 74 en el Top 600 de artistas de grabación. Ver más [+]
