About this album

The Fastest Guitar Alive is a lively Roy Orbison soundtrack album that shows how convincingly he could bring his dramatic pop style into a film setting. Issued in 1967 for the Western comedy of the same name, it pairs Orbison’s soaring voice with breezy, lightly cinematic material that keeps the focus on melody and character rather than hard-edged frontier grit. The album sits between his classic Monument years and his later MGM period, adding another facet to a catalogue already defined by emotional scale and unusual musical identity. It remains a distinctive example of Orbison crossing rock, pop and screen music with ease.
