- 'The True History of The Traveling Wilburys' was filmed in the spring of 1988 whilst the band were recording 'Vol. 1' in Los Angeles, and includes footage shot by Nelson Wilbury.
In trying to explain how the Wilburys originally came together, George Harrison once said, “The thing about the Wilburys for me is-if we’d tried to plan it, or if anybody had said, let’s form this band and get these people in it-it would never happen, it’s impossible. It happened completely, just by magic, just by circumstance. Maybe there was a full moon that night or something like that. It was quite a magical little thing really.”

It's so sad to know that we no longer have Roy Orbison, George Harrison, and Tom Petty with us. But their music will live on for a long, long time.❤️👼
I couldn't have said it better yet this documentary will help us all understand the share beauty of the making of this album ... the voices, the playfulness, the landscape watching it being tspedvon in one amazing home in the wilderness with no fear ... The world hopefully once shared music can help us get back on track
Darn sad.
Forever and Ever !!At you all Stay forever young !!. We had the cream of the crop growing up!!
They left this world so much better than they found it...... we're all out here spinning on this rock.....nobody knows why.....but these guys made the ride so much better.
The original and undoubtedly the best SUPER band. Nothing comes close 💪
You got Harrison, Dylan and Petty in the band and then you get them saying ‘Wow! We’ve got Roy Orbison in our band!!!!’. Just beautiful.
Jeff Lynne in his own right too
Loved that story. These Gods of music are fake punching each other in the arm pointing to Roy on stage at his gig saying "Can you believe HE'S IN OUR BAND!!"..... Simply awesome.
You obviously no nothing about Jeff Lynne,but The Beatles sure did...

The Wilburys is a testament to George's ability to make and keep friends in the music business who are like minded about the music. What a wonderful bunch of guys.
and he looks so much happier, too
"The Wilburys is a testament to George's ability to make and keep friends"... tells it all.
They were enjoying their time together and like some people play cards... others play football or soccer.. or even "handball" they were doing what all of them loved more than anything. This is so great a "last...(ing) goodbyes or greetings" from truly great musical inspired people who got famous because of their love of music... Roy, George and Tom have now traveled over to the other side... but Bob, Jim and Jeff are still traveling on this side... in 2022.
God bless this 6 .

After watching the "Get Back" doc, it's easy to see why George was so worried about his friends happiness. He didn't want his friends to feel pushed aside like he had with the Beatles, the whole mess that had become. So he became the leader to make sure everyone felt included. Everyone had a voice here and a strength in a certain area to lend that made the group work. I loved all these guys separately and to see them together is magic. I watch this docu once a year, it's so good!
Exactly
Roy Orbison was impossible to replicate. No one has or ever will sound like him. And to see these other music gods fawn over how special he is…. It just makes me happy that Roy went out with the highest appreciation he deserved. And he must have felt that before he died. He was pure priceless treasure
Near the end of the "Handle with Care" video, although we briefly see Roy (Lefty) put the harmonica up to his lips, it is actually Tom (Charlie T.) who plays this ending solo.
The Best
Agreed. I'm still stunned he was only 52.
💯 one of my favorite voices ever heard
Bob "Robert Allen Zimmerman" Dylan (they love lying about their names) ruins it. He's a clown. He's awful. Worst singer ever.
Im so glad Roy got to do this , He did go out on top .
How could he not?! 💓🔥👍
“Wow, Roy Orbison is in the band.” “Singing after Roy was really intimidating.” I love how all these legends were star struck with Roy. Big, big, big love for these guys.
@@talkingdonkey1817 Singing with Roy was really intimidating ..THE WHOLE WILBURY EXPERIENCE ! & they all knew it !

Yes Thank God I am glad all of this excellent group 🙌 of the top of top were blessed by their collaboration. There's so much joy that comes through their enjoyment of working together ❤ 🙌
In my life I don’t believe there’s been a better collaboration than the Wilburys. Harrison Dylan, Orbison, Petty, and Lynne. Damn, what an amazing story of bringing the group together. Then the tragedy of losing Roy.
Sad Yes, of the Great Roy Orbison ,passing away. There iz another great , mostly unforgettable member, .Drummer , Jim Keltner. So good iz /waz he , with also , Ry Cooder
I can’t think of any group of rock musicians who surpassed the Wilburys. Pure magic.
Who would have thought Dylan would outlive them all (well, besides Jeff and Jim Keltner still being around) Guess we'll never hear their third album Volume 5.
We’ll never see the like of it again 🙌
@@robertlesliebryant3414😅 1:19
Their voices harmonized so well together. What a super band! Thank you, George Harrison.
Professionals that love what they do. 💟
It is so great seeing them interact with each other.
Egos left at the door and just 5 friends with much respect and bags full of talent. Amazing.
Agreed. Just enjoying themselves and now we can share that forever. Thank you Wilburys.x
There will NEVER be anything like it again. There isn't a single young musician today that can fill their shoes. Worse, even with all the tech advantages they have 99%of the music turned out stinks.
Yeap
Unlike the Beatles
@@chiangmaicharlies all the beatles got to have input, there's songs written by all of them. however maybe you are correct and George thought that was the most important aspect, and encouraged it. i really liked their music, it was very refreshing
The only shame about The Traveling Wilburys (hands down the greatest ever supergroup) is that they didn’t get together many years before. Two albums - and only one with The Big ‘O’ - is so sad, but what a legacy they left. AMAZING! R.I.P. Roy, George and Tom 🙏🏻
True

I believe that things happen when they are supposed to and am very happy they happened in my lifetime. I remember precisely where I was when I heard them the first time and their music saw me through some tough times. God bless them.
Totally agree. I loved them.
I think this happened at a perfect moment in their careers. Nothing left to prove. That’s why it sounds like just music and fun.
Roy Orbison singing 'Not Alone' is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard!
It’s a fabulous magical gorgeous piece. Gives me goosebumps every time I hear it.
No doubt
And quite possibly ever will!
Hearing him sing 'Not Alone Anymore' always gives me goosebumps. What a voice!
Awesome, thanks for your shared words
My dad had the "End of the Line" played at his funeral. People said some words a preacher got up and talked and people just sat and listened pretty stone faced. As soon as that song played there wasn't a dry eye in the place. Music can be so much more powerful. That album and especially that song will always hold a special place in my heart.
My husband too. He specifically requested he wanted it played on a loop and that’s what we did. Sorry about your dad. 😢
Great idea for a song at a funeral. I’ll use this for mine
Something like this can never be duplicated. Legendary musical artists who left their ego's at the door to have some fun and create a little magic that will always live on. I still listen to their tracks whenever I can!
so true, I come back here regularly just to hear to quiet admiration and creativity they shared with each other...
The Highwaymen was the same type of get together...but with classic country western. Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson and Willie Nelson. Fantastic music.
@@lisaahmari7199 wow thanks. Looked m up and they're great. Lived 2 years in Arizona for a job, but never heard about them. Thanks from Belgium (suppose I owe you some chocolate, beer and waffles lol)
@@kurtdezutter8047 yes please!!😂🤣
This video is truly glorious.
As short lived as they were, with the sad and untimely demise of Roy Orbison, I still adore The Traveling Wilburys' music. Sadly now we've also lost George Harrison and Tom Petty. However, the music lives on for old and new generations alike to enjoy. I don't know about anyone else, but I really needed this documentary.
Nice... Check out "Super Session"
Three legendary musicians of another Era.. Also the second Album.. Cooper Session... Trust me!!
Amen!
Amen brother Ahmet shengenzer you hit it right on the head beautifully done wonderful group of guys love them all very much it's all what rock and roll is all about
Just great people. Magic
we all die. What makes you think that great musicians don't die, too? It's not "tragic." It's life. And death is the way it ends.
It’s so unreal to listen to these quiet giants speak about how thrilled they
each were to work with one another. As we all know, looking on and looking
back, it was like capturing lightening in a bottle. I’m just very grateful I can
watch this documentary and wear out my album at will. Thank you for this! ❤️🔥
I'm so glad to read your comments... what a magical surprise time all together of the most beautiful creative poets/ musicians & friends pur joy... I'm so happy to share this with friends °~~|||☆.. °~~
"Quiet Giants" is the perfect way to describe all of them. Well said!
Your words pack a shallop. I felt much the same thing.
@@tigristhelynx7224 Awesome"Quiet Giants."
You nailed it! Exactly! 👌👍
I like to hear Tom Petty tell of how excited Roy was before he passed. I once read where George Harrison's wife spoke of his end saying he had pain from the sickness but was not afraid of death because he knew where he was going with George having such deep faith. I am glad they shared these personal stories. Tom Petty still is a hard pill to swallow.
So where exactly did he end up, If he knew exactly where he was going? Come on tell the truth everyone, there’s no Rock ‘n’ roll heaven. Come on snap out of it!!! There are only two Places people end up after they pass.

@@flamingooneleg77 All I know is this, "if there's a Rock & Roll Heaven, then I know they have one hell of a band".
I think it's you who should snap out of it.
What was your point in coming to a place, where people were sharing goodness and nice thoughts and throw your useless and uncalled for crap at them.
You accomplished nothing.
One of the perks of being a Beatle: You can dine with Roy Orbison and Jeff Lynne, phone Bob Dylan to ask to borrow his studio, pick up the guitar you left with Tom Petty and then get them all together to create some music there and then in Dave Stewart's house. What a life...
George was the Beatles, quietly in the background.
It's a really strange thought because it's kind of their equivalent of 'yeah, we can pick up Brian and Mike on the way to Dave's house and I think Jimmy left his Playstation and games there and Dave's got that massive TV so ring Steve, tell him to bring all his spare controllers over and yeah, let's do this thing!'
Spectacular!!!
So true
Well we fly by night, its like a rocket flight and baby thats just what it's for
Jeff Lynne is criminally underrated, what an absolute genius
By whom? Fans of ELO? Please, another "underrated" comment by someone who has no idea...
@@buckhorncortez Jeff Lynn did much much more than this record or ELO. He is a composer and musical genius.

@@musicisgoodforthesoul999 Steve Marriott, Jagger and Richard, Water, Clapton, Hendrix etc.
George was the most underrated Beatle and was a huge talent. All Things Must Pass, The Concert for Bangladesh and Living in The Material World are must have rock albums. He was the driving force in making the Traveling Wilburies happen from what I have read.
Agreed. George had the sweetest voice and wrote some of the best Beatles songs.
He was the beatles. The rest were the monkeys
Ringo was not rated very highly as a singer and he wasn't a great singer.
Have both.,Vinyl.
A truly legendary time to be a serious music listener/ player.
My friends and I would listen to this record all night while shooting darts in the garage. It did not take long to know all the songs word for word. We would sing all the songs, shoot darts and drink beer all night and almost every night that whole summer. It was by far one of the best times of my life. I had never liked this kind of music before and suddenly, The Traveling Wiburys was my favorite album. This opened up my liking and appreciation for bands like, The Arc Angeles, Joe Ely, John Hiatt and the like.
My deepest thanks to all who made this record possible.
To good times and good friends, Cheers.
Hearing the Traveling Wilburys sing Ghost Riders in the Sky happily together in a kitchen with just some acoustic guitars is something else. What a class act each and everyone of them.
Friends enjoying themselves. Laughing, singing, playing just messing around.
No corporate sponsor, no financial plan, no marketing strategy.
Six guys hanging around at a mates house.
Isnt this awesome?
Like...the Monkees! (chuckle)
As an old man at the end of his years I sure miss these masters of music
May your passing be peaceful
All I do is cry my eyes out when I hear Roy - voice of an angel
I love Jeff Lynne's comment about having the best singer (Roy) and the best lyricist (Dylan) in the same group. Jeff is such a huge songwriting talent in his own right.
Totally agree!!!
I always thought of Lynne as an engineer of sound, or a craftsman really. A sculpter. A sculpter of sound. I hear the Electric Light Orchestra sound organically fused into the songs. There's the classic rock and roll and rockabilly song, or a George Harrison song or riff, or the Dylan twang. It's fresh but its the classic sound and it has this something else. An ELO presentation and energy. All the songs were so nicely put together.
Jeff Lynn also had a wonderful voice!
No need for boring Bob Dylan in this band.
@@jaysantos536 - No need for hateful Jay Santos comment...
More talent in that room than 100 other bands working together at once could hope to muster. RIP George, Roy and Tom.
This was so incredible, the man, the myth, the legend that was The Orb stole the show even in a group full of other certified geniuses. That voice, the greatest voice, no one could match it. It wasn’t a voice, it was a miracle. I got goosebumps just thinking about it. I think he struggled to accept the adulation, he said he didn’t know what to make of it but he remained humble and gracious.
A giant slice in time I am proud to have been in that time..the likes of these musicians only happens once in a generation God bless them all for giving all that was truly in there hearts..not only will we miss there masterly education but also love there guift to us all😢😊❤
Elvis even said that Roy Orbison had the best voice of any singer.
What a mammoth talent. Wow.
Double Wow! Elvis? Super cool
Yesss Elvis Presley himself stated that Roy Orbison had one of the best voices for singing And that is coming from Elvis Presley one of the greatest singers of all time !
George was such a special, unique and talented human being... This proves that birds of a feather flock together. R.I.P.
WHAT A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF TALENT PUT TOGETHER WITH NO SELFISH EGOS. GOD BLESS.
They ALL were!
rock together
AMEN 🎸🎶🎶
He was the greatest beatle imo
The Travelling Wilburys were a final validation of Roy Orbison’s contribution to Rock&Roll from the mid 50’s of Rockabilly at Sun Records to his last recordings with Virgin released in the late 80’s and early 90’s. Jeff Lynne produced Roy’s Mystery Girl album around the same time as the Wilburys and helped ensure Roy went out on top. It had been 25 years since Roy toured with George Harrison and the Beatles in the U.K. during 1963.
@Harry. B. Renner. jr. Interesting history lesson. I didn't know that about Sam and Ooby Dooby. People needed to learn to listen to the Man in Black! I love Johnny Cash, was so sad when June died bc I knew Johnny would be fairly quick to follow.
Both he and Roy had unmistakable voices, when you heard one or the other, yep that's Roy or yep that's Johnny.
The same can be said for George, Bob, and Tom as well. To think there's only 2 Wilburys left... Love old Bob! That'll be the day the music truly dies. I'm not a huge fan of Jeff (Geoff?) and ELO is too over produced but any friend of George's is a friend of mine kinda thing right? Thanks for the insight into Roy. 🌹
RIP all.
I saw the Beatles and Roy Orbison at the Kingston Regal in 1963, and they never looked back
Mo mlm
Thanks for that @JohnG . I wasn't aware of the Mystery Girl connection. Time to give it a listen again! Just read Roy was supposed to be the headliner in '63, but with the explosive popularity of the Beatles they became co-headliners. The recently departed dear Gerry Marsden and his Pacemakers also on the bill. You'll never walk alone you guys, thanks for leaving us your music. RIP.
You lucky duck! Just adore this video, though it’s quite bittersweet.
First time watching this video and WHEW! How can I be smiling and crying at the same time! God truly blessed the world when he got these wonderful fellows together! The music is absolutely magic!! To see these legends just hanging out and being friends and producing this awesome music almost effortlessly. Still wonderful after all these years, and forever😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
True awesome to watch and listen to . Cheers.
Just great all their songs poor guys
Wonderful - Love the bit when they're playing Ghost Riders!
Love Willie....
I miss the 80's music.
Pure, joyful seemingly effortless talent all coming together for a one-time only masterpiece!
I always wanted to know the story of how the band came about. This is what CZcams is best at, allowing these little gems to reach an audience.
Men who clearly like each other, doing what they love, and creating together. One of the absolutely greatest collaborations, and a favorite recording of mine! Thank you for posting this.
Not just like Ned, respect.👍
They recaptured the magic of playing for the joy of it.
This is the FIRST and ONLY super group! Super collaboration! Thank god they got Roy, for the last time.
"Your friendship wasn't abused." Amazing group of people.
Roy Orbison - such a soft spoken and internally rich human being. This group embodies everything great about musicianship and camaraderie among musicians. So grateful to have this glimpse into their sessions. Thanks for posting!
All I can do is echo the previous comments as I've cried so many tears watching this documentary over and over and it doesn't get old.
For sure, THE super group of super groups!
I may have pressed the down arrow in error
I could't believe my eyes the first time I saw a picture of the Wilburys.
I looked at the picture and I said, "Legend, legend, legend, legend, and legend"
This is like Ruth, Mantle, DiMaggio, Koufax, Aaron, Mays, Williams, Musial, Cobb, and Young getting together for a pick up game. Then filming it. Incredible!
You might be my spirit animal likening these musical giants with the baseball greats. Great comment
How nice to come across this again. I did the special effects... I'm pretty sure you still can't see what I did, which means I did my job. Willy was a pleasure to work with and being involved was my privilege. Hello Smax & Olivia, hope you're well and having fun x
THIS is George's finest moment. I am so happy I watched this.
Jeff Lynne is a music genius, plays all the instruments, fantastic singer, songwriter and is one of the best if not the best producer ever. Tom Petty said it well in this Documentary. Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Ringo and so many Music Legends have recognized his immense talent. Still, he is the most humble and kind man in the Music industry.
Roy. George and Tom Petty gone, we are blessed that era. Take care.
The other day I read that John Lennon also had tremendous admiration and respect for Jeff Lynne.
@@mariannebarlow8336 It is impossible not to admire and love Jeff. He has a lovely laugh too.
John Lennon is Missing
@@TheACCars True he called ELO the son of the Beatles and even a step further.
Holy buckets. That shot with George talking about Roy dying at/around 21:33...I got goosebumps knowing Jeff is the only one still with us in that particular interview, yet the way George is talking about life and death puts you at an unexpected place of peace about it all.
What a beautiful thing the Wilburys was...and still is.
RIP Roy, George, and Tom 🙏
Bob still alive to
Really sucks though such a great all star band
This is a must watch for songwriters Or writers without a proper studio
It can be done
It gave me goosebumps 😢
George is a beautiful person.
Come on now, it is George Harrison of All Things Must Pass fame
Jim Keltner is still alive
Best band ever. Hearing any of their tracks takes me back to when life was more simple and easier.
My favourite band ever! We miss you George, Tom and Roy 🤍
We have lost alot of great musicians especially this past year. But there is a saddness that I feel all the time for the loss of these three. Tom and George the most but Roy was also a breed of his own and a musical genius.
My brother & I were JUST talking about how pissed we were at Tom Petty for taking himself out too early ... we really loved his music. And George, the lifetime of smoking did him in ... I just wish they treasured themselves as much as the fans treasure them.
I got chills hearing Roy Orbison sing "You're NOt Alone Anymore."
Oh God... what a terrible missing men
💔💔💔
Whoever posted this, Thank you!
We are SOOO FORTUNATE TO BE ABLE TO HAVE WILLBURYS IN OUR LIVES. THE TALENT!!!!
Roy’s voice - wow. You hear him speaking in his regular speaking voice and just wonder where that heavenly singing voice comes from.
@Harry. B. Renner. jr. And feeling!
@Harry. B. Renner. jr. saw Roy
6 months before he passed in Ontario Canada... i was 18 and allways loved Roys music. He was fantastic.. rip Roy, Tom, George
If anyone up in Heaven's choir is single solos, it would be Roy Orbison. What a spine-tingling, heavenly voice.
From god
He never took credit for his voice . He always said it was a gift from God .
I still get chills when I hear Roy's voice, really, the one with THE best voice in the group. RIP, Roy, George and Tom... (Rock In Peace)
I've loved the Traveling Wilburys from the start, but only watched the doccie now - and it's almost exactly as I'd imagined it would have played out - a bunch of awesome human beings, doing what they loved best, but also being guided by their previous experiences - it's just beautiful to see and to listen to again! Thank you for the music!
A bunch of super-talented established musicians with nothing left to prove getting together, having fun and making music in a kitchen? What's not to love?
took the words right out of my mouth
Well said
Because they all have such a history in music, and are each super talented, I can respect what they did; but come on, it's melodic pop music and for me that's significantly less important than the ground breaking they did in their respective bands previously. But yea, to have the talent, the talented friends, all the rest of what you said; must feel wonderful. The fact that some of you think it's great is icing on the cake.
@@peetrpeetr - Nothing the Beatles ever did was simple “pop music”? Or mediocre/album filler ever for that matter? Please. Compare “I Wanna Hold Your Hand” to the the Kinks “All Of The Night” and tell me with a straight face that the Beatles didn’t play pure pop.
Psychedelia was not the pinnacle of any of these musicians either. I don’t think that ranking musicians by levels of awesomeness is all that productive, especially for full-grown adults. But that is my opinion. You are welcome to yours.
In Dave Stewart's kitchen, no less. My god, what a collection of genius.
No competition .... No egos ...... No one guy trying to outdue the other .... Just 5 seasoned musicians coming together and putting their best into an album with nothing but hit after hit ..... If there was ever a supergroup ..... These guys are the cream of the crop ...... Never before nor after will you see 5 musicians of this caliber coming together and doing what they love most ..... Writing, composing, and putting to tape their talents ...... What an awesome collaboration of the best of the best
Been a fan of the Wilburys from the beginning and had no idea this footage existed. What an absolute treat.
Maybe the most treasured band in my soul. So great was this band, that their music is secondary. It’s the people I love. A special group and they hit with their 1st album perfectly-timed when I needed it, age 12. Fortunately, I had an older brother in college who had already schooled me on each individual member, so this thing was just pure magic to me. It still is. I can’t even believe this band happened. Unreal.
Smiling through tears. All our sweet guys in this group.
I FEEL THE SAME , STILL MISS GEORGE AND NOW TOM AND ROY WENT OUT WITH A BANG WE ARE SO LUCKY TO HAVE THIS DOC
Roy Orbison has a stunning voice. Totally unique.
Agree wholeheartedly Unique. No totally required
I love him!
My favorite singer of all time, just narrowly edging out Ray Charles.
100% Roy Orbison's singing conveys an understanding of and love for people - whatever one is going through - it may create tears or joy but it soothes the soul. RIP Roy.
That's precisely what Elvis told him, the certification of vocal supremacy, baby! 😆 😂
What a voice Roy Orbison had!! Just unbelievable!!! Gives me chills!!
Thank you George for your talent, your vision and your huge heart. The Traveling Wilburys was such a wonderful surpirse and will live on and on.
I don’t think with any Musicians these days could possibly ever make another fabulous group like these accidentally put together just at the right time
I don't think any of them have the talent.
@wildcatter63 And Jeff Lynne is vastly underrated--also a musical genius.
It was no accident. It was a brilliant move by the label/producer. This entire documentary is horse poo.
@wildcatter63 i always thought the same way of them. roy's singing is just one in a lifetime great.

Thank goodness The Wilbury's happened! What a gift!
I remember first hearing about this album in the works and thinking...."this sounds too good to be true"!
Greatest super band ever. I love every song.
Roy’s voice - wow. You hear him speaking in his regular speaking voice and just wonder where that heavenly singing voice comes from.
I have loved all these guys equally and individually for so long. When they all came together and formed the Willburys, that was a majic that will never be repeated.
22:11…look at Jeff rocking that Petty t shirt…what a good friend
These guys seemed to have rediscovered what music’s all about. Magic.
Absolutely pure gold..
Jeff Lynne is simply a genius. Underrated producer but his record speaks for itself
oh hell yes!! jeff is a force of nature, a musical gift from the universe to humanity...
Tragically the contribution of Don Smith and the conception of this group at A&M Studios during the Roy Orbison sessions there leaves a hole in the story. Hapinstance played a huge part of their start.
I just received the ‘Jeff Lynne’s ELO Wembley or Bust’ DVD and CD set for my 73 rd Birthday. I wanted to relive the glorious moments I experienced watching them on 3 separate occasions live in Montreal. Simply Timeless.

Happy Birthday, belated or early!
Sounds as if you've had some special times 💃🚶🌞
The rocking chair with Big O's guitar always hits me hard😢 Such an incredible artist with a unique voice.
Right? I remember the first time I saw that I burst into tears.
June, 1989, I had my first Walkman, I had just begun a one-year around-the-world solo adventure with my guitar, and this album in my ears as the soundtrack. I still remember climbing up to the Acropolis with the Wilburys playing. Will never forget the feeling- it doesn't get any better.
The Traveling Wilburys was a real gift for Roy, a well deserved send off with a platinum album.
Such great guys together and apart.
A supergroup if there ever was one. It came together spontaneously and made history. RIP Roy, George, and Tom
I'm definitely convinced that this was the best band ever. Being compromised of three master songwriters and absolute musical prowess. Excellent songs and just all around good music!
Watching this I constantly feel like smiling, and when Roy Orbison sings it converts into tears. What a fantastic band, gathered and formed by a stroke of magic, but never getting pretentious. Who wouldn't love to be the drummer, the sound engineer, or someone just hanging around with these guys?
Only two of them left now in this dimension, but some time in the future they'll maybe gather again.
They gave Jim Keltner a Wilbury name but he disagreed, only ever wanted to be a session drummer on demand.

Thought I'd add one for the absolutely brilliant and perfect work of Jeff Lynn- any one of them could have produced this unbelievable gold mine of mind gold, but Jeff was the only producer capable of turning those sessions into some of the finest sounds ever put on tape- I can't remember, was it the kitchen or the dining room that was the vocal/drum booth-no the kitchen was the guitar booth!
So much for the notion that you have to record In a multi-million dollar space ! It's the music thst makes the room.
Thank you forever Jeff
@@willyrocker4746 - True, and the term 'Wilbury' appeared during the making of Cloud Nine, which also became the fundament for creating the band. Harrison referred to errors from faulty equipment, joking to Lynne: 'We'll bury 'em in the mix'. After that, they used it for any small performance error and more.
It's amazing how cohesive they sound, as if they'd been a band for decades. No egos, just a great band, with great songs, playing well. Then you think it's like five of the biggest names in music history, and it's even more amazing.
I miss it. A happy idea of George. He gathered friends to have fun, making music and a great sound.🎸🎸🎸🎸
WE LOVE OUR 'TRAVELING WILBURY- NOW AND FOREVER - GOD BLESS YOU ROY!
Brilliant! Just brilliant! Love them all...
Even among superstars Roy Orbison is in a class by himself. He sings and you see four guys whose talents were nurtured in earthly surroundings while Roy is tapped into an expressive energy residing far beyond that.
He was an original for sure. Nobody else sounded like him. One of a kind.
@12:00 "There were a lot of ukuleles till dawn. It wouldn't be unusual for Jeff and George to show up at my door with a case of beer and play ukuleles till dawn, with the children dropping like flies around us. They'd be tucked away in a chair. "Dad I want to go home. No son we're playing ukuleles"
What a great testimony to all of these artist. So surprised that more artist are not doing this kind of co writing and performing. The generosity of spirit and friendship that was passed around was amazing. Growing up in the 60'sand 70s as well as beyond we have so many talents still available today. Watching them I know we took them for granted.
I'm so glad for your shared words...Amazing to see their friendships, blosem!°°~\○•♡
Lightning in a bottle. I picked up the CD shortly after release in the late 80's and it became a road trip favorite in my player. To this day, I get chills when I hear the magic of their collaboration.
Greatest super band ever. I love every song.
Greatest super band ever⭐love this al um!
i love the idea of the band but i only like the songs with tom petty singing for some reason
These guys were awesome!
I love each of these guys like family .
@@commentfreely5443 Not Roy?????????????
I love how George says it would never happen and it may have been a full moon that night. Yet we all know it happened because George was inspired and made it happen. Being humble is one of the most required things to be a successful artist.
I enjoyed seeing him so content--not like the Beatles days
So much talent in one room, Dylan, Orbison, Petty, Lynn and Harrison is having them sing in turn! What a wonderful sound they produced! The best!!! ❤
This Video is so special and appealing to scores of people seeing that we all have so many Heroes in the Band! Great 1st Album going Platinum and all. Some say life is Short but others remind us it’s the doing and not how long it is! Blessing and happiness is ours for the choosing and with mentors like these life becomes easier. Thanks Wilburies for making my life a little easier. God Bless all of you ❤.
At 13 years old I love it and I can't believe it. I sing along to each and every song.
Age is no barrier to enjoying music
@@davidpickard9970 true very true, thanks

Oh, Olivia did this? I love her so much!!😘
I’ve been listening to their first album on CD in my car for something like three months or more lately. I can’t get enough of it! It’s that good to listen to 👌! Roy Orbison’s voice is delicious! May the passed members rest in peace. ✨🙏🙏🙏✨
Damn shame there will never be another generation of musicians like this. Amazing video!
What a fabulous documentary, so uplifting and so special, five fabulous guys chillin singing having a ball. I cannot think of five better gentleman. What a gift, whoever put this up thank you 🙏 RIP Roy, George and Tom!
Thank you so much for your thoughts. May 2023 The year of the Rabbit and the power of this album change the way our planet can spin what energy °•~\|\|☆♡ . Let's share this with friends & family so we'll share thier creativity
😂❤
Hearing George just be so impressed with Bob is the best feeling out there
I really love the fact about how everybody was there just for the fun of making music with the greatest musicians of their time. The warmth and respect they've all had for each other was beyond words!
This 25-minute documentary is more enjoyable than 8 hours of "Get Back"
Hats off to the person filming this not realizing how priceless this is
What a masterclass of music and friendship. This is a true Supergroup.
The TW's were the most amazing supergroup because they were all about the music and had no lawyers or managers looming and lurking in the shadows...
A priceless piece of R&R!
By far, this is one of the very best videos I have seen for a very long time. When their album came out I truly thought it was incredible to have so much talent together and the songs were all AWESOME. This video just capped off a great experience....A once in a lifetime experience!!! Every single one of these gentlemen will live on in the hearts of their fans FOREVER
Thank you so very much for this. I ABSOLUTELY loved it!!
Being a huge Beatles fan, I always was on my toes when the remaining fab four had albums or projects in the works.
The quality of the music seems to be a direct reflection of how much fun they genuinely all seemed to be having while recording.
George certainly has a knack for pulling together the most talented and compatible people, and then have them bring out the best in each other. He did a super job putting together " The Concert for Bangladesh", on pretty short notice as I recall. But the "Traveling Wilburys" were a recording group. A super group if ever there was one. And if not for the untimely death of 'LEFTY WILBURY' in late 1988 I'm sure there would be more than just volumes 1 and 3.
One can only imagine what other tasty tunes these brothers would have created....and lets not even think about touring!
I love this. I come back to it every few months. George was my favorite Beatle when he was alive, now it is Ringo.... The talent in the Wilburys is unbeatable and can never be matched, but the true love these guys had for each other is the real heart of the group. We all wanted them to tour, but it wasn't possible with the schedules and commitments each of them had.
I remember buying their first album on cassette. I played it over and over, I was 15 and a sophomore in high school. So happy I found this gem, such great memories listening to them in high school. I felt like such an outsider then, and this music was my comfort.
