Yahoo!:  Video Premiere: Burlesque Legend Tempest Storm Brings Lost Roy Orbison Track to Life

WATCH NOW!

Roy Orbison’s newly discovered, never-before-heard album, One of the Lonely Ones, was recorded primarily between January and August of 1969 – a period directly following two devastating personal losses. Orbison lost his wife, Claudette, in 1966; followed by the tragic loss of his two young sons in September of 1968. The music is, as fans might imagine, a uniquely honest reflection of the confusion and pain the singer no doubt felt during these years.

The haunting title track is made even more poignant by the accompanying video, which Yahoo Music is pleased to debut.

New “CALIFORNIA BLUE” (Studio Demo) 2014 Video!

This new video debuted today on The Wall Street Journal Speakeasy

“The demo-version of “California Blue” is one of nine bonus tracks on the deluxe edition, which also includes the new song “The Way Is Love.” The tune pairs a restored Orbison vocal track with newly recorded guitar, bass and drums played by the singer’s sons, Roy Jr., Alex and Wesley. (The three comprise Roy’s Boys LLC, which collaborated with Sony Legacy on the reissue.) There’s also a demo of Orbison singing “She’s a Mystery to Me” with studio chatter from Bono (who co-wrote the song with U2 bandmate theEdge) and a DVD with a one-hour documentary about the making of the album and eight videos.”
