Where it came from
Laminar Flow was released in 1979 as Roy Orbison’s final studio album for Asylum Records. Emerging during a transitional period in Orbison's career, the record was an attempt to modernize his sound for the late 1970s, moving away from the operatic rockabilly arrangements of his earlier work toward a smoother, soft-rock aesthetic that mirrored the prevailing radio trends of the era.
The album was produced by Rick Hall at the legendary Muscle Shoals Sound Studio, a choice intended to capture a refined, soulful production quality. Despite the pedigree of the studio and musicians, the record faced critical indifference and struggled commercially. It remains a noted curiosity in Orbison's discography, representing a stylistic experiment before his eventual resurgence and induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in the late 1980s.
