Roy @ Starbucks?!
I came across this article from ABC News earlier today. It talks about the celebration of Roy’s 75th birthday and all the different promotions going on. I wasn’t aware that Starbucks is releasing a Roy Orbison Opus Collection on May 10th! It will feature 16 tracks from 1958 -1989. I know where I am getting coffee next Tuesday.

Roy Orbison Lyrics now featured on RoyOrbison.com
Roy Orbison's lyrics have been posted!
I was excited to log on today and see the lyrics to all of Roy's songs are now on the website. It's super easy to use and really great to have open while listening to The Big O's music.

I heard they are releasing Monument singles!
So apparently in April they are going to release The monument Singles Collection 1960-1964! It think that it is so neat to think that Roy himself was sitting there listening to these exact recordings at one point!
I cannot wait! What a way to celebrate Roy's 75th birthday.
Does anyone know what date this is coming out?
