A diehard lover of authentic Rock'n'Roll music, Ding Dong (real name Alain Pourquier) was France's leading Rock'n'Roll dee-jay in the early Eighties when he produced an acclaimed series of 10" albums for Charly Records compiled from recordings made for Sam Phillips' legendary Sun label. Ding Dong then launched into another series of 12" albums for Charly, following the same formula that had been so successful in the 10" series. After recording on the Je-Wel label in Texas, Roy Orbison and his band The Teen Kings came to Memphis in the Spring of 1956. Orbison continued recording for Sun through to 1958, but he couldn't replicate the success of his first release, Ooby Dooby, which reached the lower half of the Hot 100 and selling over 350,000 copies. After leaving Sun, Roy signed with RCA but met with no commercial success until he moved to Fred Foster's Monument label, and struck gold with Only The Lonely, backed by Go Go Go. Between 1960 -1965 he notched up 21 hits before switching to MGM and scoring seven more hits in the next two years. One of the most popular American artists in Britain, his popularity wasn't dented by the advent of the Merseybeat era. He topped the U.K. charts three times and charted 33 times. Roy came back to international prominence as a member of The Travelling Wilburys before resuming his solo recording career on Virgin. He returned to the charts after a gap of 20 years in 1989 and charted six times up until 1993, despite his premature death in 1988.
