ARTIST INFO:

THE TRAVELING WILBURYS INFO/BIO-

The Traveling Wilburys would have never referred to themselves as a supergroup. Though comprised of some of the biggest names in modern music, the band was much more nonchalant than that. Formed out of friendship, spontaneity (and some would say pure kismet) the Traveling Wilburys were Bob Dylan, George Harrison, Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne and Roy Orbison.

It all began in 1988, when Harrison and co-producer Jeff Lynne were tasked with recording a B-side for the former Beatle’s album, Cloud Nine. In need of a place to record on the fly, the two, along with friends Orbison and Petty, were invited over to Dylan’s home studio. The resulting track was “Handle With Care,” a collaborative effort which Harrison’s A&R team knew was just too good to use as a B-side. George later said, “I liked the song and the way that it turned out with all these people on it so much that I just carried it around in my pocket for ages thinking, ‘Well what can I do with this thing?’ And the only thing to do I could think of was do another nine. Make an album.”

As each member of the Wilburys were busy with their own projects, the five musicians found a ten-day time frame in which to write and record an album together. Posing as a band of half-brothers (each with their own Wilbury monikers), the group enlisted Monty Python’s Michael Palin to write a fictional history of the group for the LP’s liner notes. Traveling Wilburys Vol. 1 was released in October of that year to wide critical and commercial acclaim.  After hitting No. 3 on the Billboard Top 200 chart, the certified double Platinum album earned a GRAMMY® for Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group.

Sadly, Orbison passed away in December of 1988. The band reunited for one more album, dedicating it to their late friend, and wryly titling the 1990 LP, Traveling Wilburys Vol. 3. In 2007, a retrospective box set, The Traveling Wilburys Collection, was released. Proving the timeless appeal of the Wilburys’ music, the deluxe title hit Number One in six territories and peaked at Number Nine on the Billboard 200. At the time, The Traveling Wilburys Collection held the record of the having the highest debut of a box set in the United States, as well as the biggest first week in sales for a box set in the United Kingdom.

Though the Wilburys never toured, and were only together for a brief, magical time, the group’s mutual admiration for each other, and genuine joy in the studio, still shine through in these recordings.
