Well it's all right, remember to live and let live/well it's all right, the best thing you can do is forgive
When it comes to side-projects and collaborations, the collection of amazing talents in one put-together band will never be better, and possibly less handsome, than the Traveling Wilburys.
On their own, each member--Bob Dylan, Roy Orbison, Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne and George Harrison--account for some of the most influential musicians EVER in the history of rock and roll. The band released two albums together, oddly titled "Traveling Wilburys Volume 1" and "Volume 3" (not sure what happened to "Volume 2," perhaps the Wilburys were fans of prime numbers).
The band was done when Roy Orbison passed away in late 1988. And it's sort of hard for me to believe that I was 11 when "Handle with Care" and "End of the Line" were hits, but great songs are always timeless and they certainly stuck with me. In 2007, the group's two albums were re-released as "The Traveling Wilburys Collection" and it's an absolute must-have.
There's really not much more to say, other than enjoy this hot as hell Friday.
