Album Review

Although missing his early Sun hit "Ooby Dooby," the 20-track All-Time Greatest Hits of Roy Orbison, Vols. 1 & 2 contains every one of his big hits for Monument Records, including "Up Town," "Only the Lonely," "Blue Angel," "I'm Hurtin'," "Running Scared," "Crying," "Dream Baby," "Leah," "Working' for the Man," "Candy Man," "In Dreams," "Falling," "Mean Woman Blues," "Blue Bayou," "Pretty Paper," "It's Over," and "Oh, Pretty Woman." In other words, it is nearly as complete as Rhino's 18-track For the Lonely. The main difference between the two collections is the fact that the Rhino disc contains some Sun material, which makes it the preferable retrospective. Nevertheless, All-Time Greatest Hits remains a first-rate collection, especially if you're just looking for hits. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
