Album Description:
Featuring classics like "Handle With Care," "End Of The Line," and "Heading For The Light," super-group Traveling Wilbury's Collection highlights all of the band's music and previously unreleased bonus tracks through this re-mastered double album. The DVD features behind the scenes footage of the band writing and recording, along with their 5 video clips.
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

If you enjoy these artists and their music, you must add this to your collection. Interesting and most enjoyable to watch them away from the stage and in their own world......

I had put off purchasing the Traveling Wilburys collection CDs because of price and the "unknown" factor. Was the extra cost of the DVD with a two-CD set worth it?
Absolutely.
For those not familiar with the Wilburys, the one-shot supergroup made history with their initial CD back in 1988.
The DVD shows how the group managed to write, edit and record the sessions in a farmhouse, similar to the jam session that Bruce Springsteen used to create the Pete Seeger tribute album.

The Traveling Wilburys is truly a hidden gem. Some of the greatest musicians of our time came together to create this masterpiece.

I had the original 2 volumes from this band.But it had 4 extra tracks and the DVD,so i decided to get this as well.That first volume from this band was excellent from start to finish.the 2 extra tracks are ok,they have grown on me a bit.The second cd - Volume 3 was never as good as the first.I think largely due to the fact Roy Orbinson wasnt on it.His contributions on the first were brilliant.There seemed to be a real good atmosphere to the 1st volume,the music is very upbeat and sing along.Its one of ...
