Roy Orbison Star On Hollywood Walk Of Fame Jan.29 2010

Posted by Robert Supercharts on Saturday, January 30, 2010 Under: Artists of the 50s

Late rock 'n' roll pioneer Roy Orbison has been honored

with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Orbison's widow Barbara accepted the star in front of the

Capitol Records building on his behalf on Friday. Orbison

died in 1988 at the age of 52, in the midst of a comeback

with The Traveling Wilburys, a whimsical supergroup that

included Bob Dylan, George Harrison, Tom Petty and Jeff

Lynne.

Lynne attended the ceremony, as did Eric Idle, Chris Isaak,

Joe Walsh and Dwight Yoakam.

Orbison was famous for the wide range of his distinctive

and emotional voice, especially in his songs about

unrequited love like "Only the Lonely,""Crying,""In Dreams"

and "Oh, Pretty Woman."

Actor Dan Aykroyd says Orbison was a great balladeer

and a great rock 'n' roller who could be both gentle and

vicious.
