The Monument Vinyl Box both celebrates and enriches the legacy of Roy Orbison, one of the rock and roll era’s pioneering singer-songwriters. This special box includes his three original classic albums for Monument Records, featuring fully-restored artwork and sounding better than ever remastered on 180-gram vinyl. These records are now joined by Oh! Pretty Woman- the missing Monument masterpiece curated by Roy’s own sons – a newly-imagined fourth album that could have, and should have, been released as its title track was topping the charts in late 1964. Roy’s voice rings as true today as it did more than 50 years ago- and this entire set captures the legend at his peak.
