Rock Band Getting Roy Orbison Tracks (PS3)

Here's hoping the songs from the early rock legend include Only the Lonely, Pretty Woman, and You Got It.

by David Radd on Tuesday, December 23, 2008

It was revealed today that Roy Orbison downloadable songs will be coming to Rock Band. This news comes from an online preview of an upcoming Top 20 Countdown on CMT. "Get details on how you can rock out with 'The Soul of Rock and Roll' with the upcoming release of the Roy Orbison Pack for Rock Band 2 consoles," said the preview in part.

No particular Orbison songs were mentioned, though they will likely be announced on the show. This move would complement the recent release of country music via download for Rock Band in the Going Country 01 Pack.
