Editorial Reviews
From Amazon.com
The Traveling Wilburys were one of the few supergroups that lived up to their promise, because they didn't try to. Things started inauspiciously when George Harrison, needing a B-side for a 1988 single, called in friends Jeff Lynne, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, and Roy Orbison for assistance. Two albums later--the second without Orbison, who had passed away shortly after the first was released--the loose-knit collective had recorded material that was as durable, and occasionally eclipsed, the participants' legendary solo work. The Wilburys succeeded due to a genial and contagious camaraderie that permeates both discs. What could have been a train wreck of ego clashes instead resulted in a frothy meeting of the minds. These guys are having a blast, trading lead vocals and harmonies on energetic folk-rock, quirky rockabilly, and Beatlesque pop that shimmers with the respect and esteem the members clearly hold for each other. Harrison and Lynne's rather slick production polishes off edges that might better have been left unvarnished, but there's no denying the loosey-goosey craftsmanship at work in tunes such as "Handle with Care," "End of the Line," and a striking Orbison performance on "Not Alone Anymore" that ranks with any of his finest. Both albums were million-sellers, but oddly went out of print for about a decade until Rhino resurrected them, adding two rare tracks per disc as well as a DVD of music videos and a band documentary. The resulting package is a comprehensive overview of a once--well, twice--in-a-lifetime project that, especially after Harrison's passing, will never be repeated. --Hal Horowitz
Customer Reviews
The Traveling Wilburys
This DVD is an insight into the relationship between these talented musicians. It is a must buy for fans of Roy Orbison, George Harrison who are no longer with us. The evidence of the special bond and respect they had for one another and their artistry. It is amazing to learn the respect they had for Roy Orbison and his genius. It explains how this collaboration all came about. I especially enjoy the intimate setting for the creation of these great songs.
This is not the first copy I have purchased. I bought it for many of my relatives as gifts. They all agree that it is informative as well as very entertaining.

I bought this CD because tapes were replaced and I absolutely LOVED this one. Keeps you singing and bouncing in your seat - wish there was a Second Wilbury's CD!!
