ROY ORBISON-BLACK & WHITE NIGHT (DVD): ROY ORBISON was on a roll shortly before his untimely demise in the late 80s; he rubbed shoulders with BOB DYLAN and GEORGE HARRISON in THE TRAVELING WILBURYS, gained entrance into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, and had his first hit album in two decades, MYSTERY GIRL. The atmospheric, star-studded concert BLACK & WHITE NIGHT, filmed sans color at L.A's swanky Coconut Grove, will make any viewer wish he was there and feel like he was. Musicians paying tribute include BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN, whose expression alternates from grinning schoolboy to awe-struck fan throughout the show, punker ELVIS COSTELLO, legendary rockabilly axe slinger JAMES BURTON, big name producer T BONE BURNETT, and a heaven sent backing choir made of BONNIE RAIIT, JENNIFER WARNES, and kd lang. In spite of all that glitz and talent, the real star of the show is unquestionably ORBISON and his otherwordly, operatic set of pipes, equally chilling on driving rockers MEAN WOMAN BLUES and CLAUDETTE as well as the wall of sound weepers RUNNING SCARED and CRYING. This stunning sonic experience wraps with a slam-bang finale of aptly titled showstopper IT'S OVER and a rollicking jam of OH PRETTY WOMAN; BLACK & WHITE is that all too rare fitting epitaph for a truly masterful career.
