History

1988-1990

Starting at a meal between Roy Orbison, George Harrison and Jeff Lynne, the group got together at Bob Dylan's home studio in Malibu, California, to record an additional track as a B-side for the single release of Harrison's "This Is Love". Roy Kelton Orbison ( April 23 1936 &ndash December 6 1988) nicknamed "The Big O" was an influential Grammy Award -winning George Harrison, MBE (25 February 1943 – 29 November 2001 was an English rock Guitarist Singer - Songwriter, Author Jeffrey Lynne (born 30 December 1947 in Shard End, Birmingham) is a Grammy Award -winning English rock Songwriter Bob Dylan (born Robert Zimmerman, May 24 1941 in Duluth, Minnesota) is an American singer-songwriter author poet and painter who has been a major Malibu is an incorporated city in western Los Angeles County, California, United States. A-side and B-side originally referred to the two sides of 7 inch Vinyl records on which singles were released beginning in the 1950s " This Is Love " is a song by George Harrison and is the fifth track on his 1987 studio Album Cloud Nine. Tom Petty's involvement came by chance as Harrison had left his guitar at Petty's house. Thomas Earl "Tom" Petty (born October 20 1950 is an American singer songwriter and multi-instrumentalist The band, however, decided that the song that resulted, "Handle with Care", was too good to be released as a "single filler". " Handle with Care " is the first track from the Traveling Wilburys 1988 album Traveling Wilburys Vol

The members enjoyed working together so much that they decided to create a full album together under various pseudonyms; all sons of Charles Truscott Wilbury, Sr. and half brothers. Traveling Wilburys Vol. 1, written by all the members, was recorded over a ten-day period—as Dylan was scheduled to leave on a tour—in May 1988 and released on October 18. Traveling Wilburys Vol 1 is the debut album by the supergroup Traveling Wilburys and was recorded and released in 1988 to enormous commercial Events 1009 - The Church of the Holy Sepulchre, a Christian church in Jerusalem, is completely destroyed by the Fatimid It was ranked #70 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of 100 Greatest Albums of the 80's and nominated for Grammy Award for Album of the Year in 1990. Rolling Stone is a United States -based Magazine devoted to Music, Politics, and Popular culture that is published The Grammy Award for Album of the Year is the most prestigious award category at the Grammys

The death of Roy Orbison on December 6, 1988, prevented further full collaborations, but the band did continue.

The Traveling Wilburys contributed the title track, "Nobody's Child", to the Romanian Angel Appeal benefit album "Nobody's Child: Romanian Angel Appeal", released on July 24, 1990. Nobody's Child Romanian Angel Appeal is an album by Traveling Wilburys, Stevie Wonder, Eric Clapton, Elton John and others released Events 1132 - Battle of Nocera between Ranulf II of Alife and Roger II of Sicily. Year 1990 ( MCMXC) was a Common year starting on Monday (link displays the 1990 Gregorian calendar) A second Wilbury's album, Traveling Wilburys Vol. 3 was released on October 30, 1990, but met less success than the first one. Traveling Wilburys Vol 3 is the 1990 follow-up album by the supergroup Traveling Wilburys to their 1988 debut Traveling Wilburys Vol Events 637 - Antioch surrenders to the Muslim forces under Rashidun Caliphate after the Battle of Iron bridge. Year 1990 ( MCMXC) was a Common year starting on Monday (link displays the 1990 Gregorian calendar) Harrison once claimed in an MTV interview that the band had written material for a "Vol. 2", but the material was stolen before completion. Another reason offered for the lack of a "Vol. 2" is that Tom Petty's 1989 release, "Full Moon Fever," featured George Harrison, Roy Orbison, and Jeff Lynne, making it a de facto Wilburys album. Full Moon Fever is the first solo album by Tom Petty, though it features contributions from several members of his backing band the Heartbreakers along with The "official" story (from the perspective of the fictional Wilbury family) is that Vol. 3 was written and performed by a different set of Wilburys (hence the new Wilbury names), and that they skipped Vol. 2 so that title could be used if the original band ever reunites. This was a final nod to Orbison, effectively saying that the original band could never reunite. In the booklet contained in the 2007 box set, the album name is credited to 'George being George'.

2007
