Join Jimbo and the Mickster on this episode of ‘Songs You Should Know’ as they take a journey back to the late ’80s and explore the supergroup that rocked the world – The Traveling Wilburys. Comprised of music legends George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, Bob Dylan, Roy Orbison, and Tom Petty, this band came together through happenstance to create something truly magical. It all started when Harrison needed a B-side for a single from his Cloud Nine album and the participants collaborated informally on the song ‘Handle with Care’ at Dylan’s home. From there, they adopted alter egos as the five Wilbury brothers and recorded a full album, produced by Lynne and Harrison. The result was a commercial success and garnered critical acclaim. Join us as we dive into the musical genius behind The Traveling Wilburys and explore the magic that can happen when music legends come together.
