Also heard one on Sam Cooke but can't find the link.

Didn't know that Sam recorded a song titled, "Meet me at Mary's Place". After they played Sam's song they played Bruce's. Obvious influence. Probably heard it on Steve's radio show.

I've been watching the Youtube versions of Black and White Night songs for the last half hour. Orbisons voice is simply breath taking on many of the songs....Running Scared, In Dreams, Only The Lonely and of course ...Pretty Woman.
