In June of 1969 Roy Orbison had hopes for a live album while he was on tour in the UK.  His record label was not on board with his plan, however, and Roy had to compromise.  The resulting album is THE BIG O- recorded as live as he could make it with his touring band The Art Movement.  While MGM Records chose not to release the album in North America, London-Decca opted to release it elsewhere in early 1970.
