A new Roy Orbison album is being released which features The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra on classic tracks such as 'Oh, Pretty Woman', 'Crying' and 'Only the Lonely'.
Titled "A Love So Beautiful: Roy Orbison with The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra", the album will be available to buy on November 3 by Sony Music, reported Contactmusic.
It is being released in partnership with Roy's Boys LLC, the Nashville-based company founded by the late icon's sons to administer their father's catalogue and safeguard his legacy.
Alex Orbison, President of Roy's Boys and the youngest of Roy Orbison's sons, said, "If ever there were a singer whose body of work benefits from a collaboration with the Royal Philharmonic it would be Roy Orbison.
"Soon, we'll all be able to experience that 'life' with the release of this project. It's more than an album release, it's the fulfilment of a prophecy in a very tangible way."
Roy's sons Wesley (guitar), Roy Jr. (guitar) and Alex (drums) have provided instrumental backing on selected tracks, along with 10-month-old grandson Roy III (guitar, tambourine).
