Orbisongs is a compilation LP released by Monument Records in 1965 after Roy Orbison had left the label and joined MGM. It features tracks such as the stereo version of "Oh, Pretty Woman", a different version of "Dance", and the unreleased "I Get So Sentimental."[1]
Cash Box described the single "(Say) You're My Girl" as an "easy-going, pledge of romantic devotion with an infectious repeating rhythmic riff."[2]
The album debuted on the Billboard Top LPs chart in the issue dated November 6 that year and remained on the chart for 11 weeks, peaking at number 136.[3]
