“Ooby Dooby” (CCR)

Another cover from CCR’s “Cosmo’s Factory” being the first Sun record for Roy Orbison. Unlike with Elvis, Sam Phillips never quite knew what to do with Orbison. Phillips kept trying to make him into a rockabilly artist, when all Roy really wanted to do was write and sing ballads. Sun producer Jack Clement flat out said Orbison would never make it doing slow songs. Uhhhhh, millions of people would disagree.
