Music,Travelling Wilburys ??

[Leekbrookgull]

Just heard a track,by the above band? Sounds a bit like the late George Harrison ? Anyone know anything? Track was called. It's all right.

A band from my youth. Think it was Mark knopfler, roy orbison, tom petty...
I remember 'handle with care' was good. Album worth picking up.

 

[seagully]

The whole not as good as the sum of the parts IMO.

Not sure Knopfler was involved but Bob Dylan and the guy from ELO (Lynn?)were.

George Harrison was indeed a member of the Travelling Wilburys, as was Jeff lynn of ELO fame

 

[SussexSpur]

Del Shannon was about to join, before he very unfortunately, inconveniently committed suicide.

The Wilburies' song "Handle With Care" is worth a few minutes of anyone's time, and the recent cover by Jenny Lewis and the Watson Twins is just as lovely, maybe more...

Pretty certain Knopfler was not involved

as always mate, you are 100% correct

 

[LowKarate]

The Travelling Wilburys consist of Bob Dylan, Roy Orbison, George Harrison, Tom Petty and Jeff Lynn.

20 second search on Google will tell you that and more.

The song is called End Of The Line and was by a mile the best track the TW did.. good stuff too!

Mark Knopfler was in the Notting Hillbillies.

There was some good stuff on there but the song "tweeter and the monkey man" sung by Tom Petty was my favourite

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

I thought it was a fantastic album. It was marketed as some sort of riposte to the techno (I was going to say crap) stuff that was popular at the time.
