#103 (Marsh 1001)

Crying/ Candy Man by Roy Orbison

Label: Monument 447 Year: 1961
Picture sleeve included: M-

Condition: M- $50.00
Crying/ Candy ManHere's a great copy of this double-sided smash from Roy Orbison. The B side appears to be a non-album cut. Note how far this single is near the top of Dave Marsh's list of the 1,001 great singles of Rock'n'Soul. You'd think owning position #103 would be a big achievement for any artist... or at least, I would. But in the case of Orbison, you'd be wrong. Position 103 is only in the middle of the 7 songs that represent him in that total of 1,001. Ahead of "Crying" are three songs in the Top 100:
  1. Only The Lonely (#17)
  2. Oh Pretty Woman (#39), and
  3. In Dreams (#66)

The three songs that follow "Crying" in Marsh's list?

  1. Running Scared (#323)
  2. Blue Bayou (#403), and
  3. It's Over (#999)

This copy comes with its most amazing and unusual 1961 picture sleeve. Straight from the playbook of 1960s pop-art design, it's a fitting companion for other 1960s pop-design icons like the Pink Panther art or the credits for movies like It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World. The sleeve grades Near Mint and is nearly flawless. (This scan is a representative image from our archives.)

The 45 itself grades very close to Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio).
