Roy Orbison

Roy Orbison's 1969 magnum opus: a seven-minute mini-opera (a la "Macarthur Park") about a middle-aged man who commits suicide by driving his car into a wall. Recorded with the Neon Philharmonic team of Don Gant (who produced) and Tupper Saussy (who arranged).

This is such an amazing song from a very dark pros in his life after losing Claudette and then his two sons. His voice is one in a million
