Which of these perfomances of Roy Orbioson singing Crying is the best?

The first one is when he perfromed it in 1965, in the Netherlands during a show there, that you might often see, and you can find the video of that show at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzezIg2Ei... . The next perfromace of it, is when he performed at the Diamond Carrer Awards in November of 1988, before his death, in just the weeks to follow, you can find that at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S0aVXXzhU... . The sound is not good, so you have to turn it up to be able to hear it. The next performance is when he is alone on a stage playing guitar and singing the song, and an unseen band on the Johnny Cash show, and you can find that at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CPK_5yJZS... . And how can you forget his performa nce of the song during the concert Roy Orbison and friends: a black and white night , and you can find that at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fh45GEpsE... and here is the last one at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=78eQbwe3-... and that one is with kd lange.

Which of these perfomances of Roy Orbioson singing Crying is the best?opera score

Although I like the arrangement of the slower, duet-version (w-the acoustic Spanish guitar) of "Crying" best, on general impact I'd vote for #1 as that black and white Netherlands "Combo Concert" recording...Roy at his peak of polish and power.

Which of these perfomances of Roy Orbioson singing Crying is the best?musicals opera theater

Since "Crying" was released in 1961, I would imagine Roy Orbison performed the song in public or on a tv show before 1965.
1965 in Holland.

But an even better live performance can be found on "Anthology" DVD. It's from a B%26amp;W TV Show, 1963 or 1964.
