So, one night in 1988, George Harrison was at dinner with Jeff Lynne. Jeff had just helped George create his succesful comeback album "Cloud Nine". Jeff also happened to be working with Roy frickin' Orbison at the time, and Roy joined them for dinner. Now, bear in mind that during the early 60's, Roy was at the top of the charts, and also one of the Beatles idol's and inspirations. They actually toured together in England. At the beginning of the Tour the Beatles opened for Roy. By the end of the tour, Roy was opening for the Beatles. Anyways, during dinner conversation, it came up that George and Jeff had been asked to provide a throwaway song as a B-side to some European release. They decided to come up with a song the next day and asked Roy if he wanted to join them. To sing or to write or just to hang out. Roy was game, so the plan was made. But where to record! Even with their pedigree, it wasn't going to be easy to find a space that was available on such short notice. Remember, this was 1988, there was no email, no texting, and very few portable phones. If the person you were trying to call wasn't there, you kinda just had to wait until they were. All I'm saying is that this was a bit of a daunting task, and how it was resolved was almost miraculous. George decided to try to call Bob Dylan, a man famous for not being able to get in touch with. But he had a recording studio in his garage and somehow managed to pick up the phone! He said that it would be fine, so the plan was set. But here's my favourite part. En route to Bob Dylan's garage, George had to stop at Tom Petty's house, so he could pick up his guitar. Because that's how George Harrison rolled. So please imagine with me that you're Tom Petty. Already quite successful in your own right, but then George Harrison, Jeff Lynne and Roy frickin' Orbison roll up and say "Hey, we're heading over to Bob Dylan's right now to write a song. Wanna Come?" Up until that point, Tom Petty may have had plans for the day. So They arrive at Bob Dylan's garage, Dylan joins them and say's "So what are we going to sing about?" George spies a box sitting in the garage with a freight sticker on it reading 'Handle with Care' and said "Why don't we sing about that?" A sticker on a box. So that's what they did, and after spitballing verses and riffs at each other for a couple of hours, they wrote and recorded this. Wow. It was pretty clear that this was not a song to throwaway on some European B-side, and they had so much fun doing it that someone eventually said "Why don't we make an album?" So they did. Somehow, all 5 of them were able to co-ordinate a week or two where they were all free. So they borrowed Dave Stewart's house, and made an album. And thus, Roy Orbison, Bob Dylan, George Harrison, Jeff Lynne and Tom Petty spent a week or so hangin' out, drinkin' beers, smokin' weed, shootin' the shit, and just creating music. And that's how the Traveling Wilburys actually happened. The best supergroup of all time, comprised of some of the top musicians of all time representing multiple era's of rock from its infancy, with no ego battles. It's pretty wonderful.

What a great storytelling. In 88 I was 25 and went to London to study English when Cloud 9 the album that you mentioned was released. 88 was a very expecting year many events were in the oven waiting to pull out and serve; the wall fell next year, the iron courtain torn and ragged and afterwards apparently capitalism beat socialism. AIDS was in raise and still little known about its transmission paths, therefore, the sexual distance was the norm as today the social one is, and swinging London became frighting London. It's in this context that the Travelling Willburys showed up singing handle me with care.

Ringo's Octopus's Garden was inspired from a conversation he had over dinner due to octopus being on the menu. Paul's inspiration for Elinor Rigby was entirely from a grave marker with that name.

This group was formed just to be as chilled as possible. This was the first song they created and it was all because they saw a box that said "handle with care" and they wrote the song around that!

There's an old joke about the Beatles: John was the brain, Paul was the heart, George was the soul, and Ringo was the drummer. But I really started to think about what it means to say George was the 'soul' of the Beatles, and it is so true. If the Beatles had replaced George, they wouldn't have been the Beatles anymore. Meanwhile, if George goes out and gets three other great performers...it sounds like a Beatles song! He really was the indispensable member of the group.

I disagree with Paul being the heart. John was the heart, Paul was the brain. Just look at the songs they wrote, John’s music had emotion and feel, whereas Paul’s music was crafted and more polished. There’s some exceptions where Paul had heart.

What a pleasure to wake up to this! Roy Orbison, one of the finest voices ever, Tom Petty (lots for you to explore there,), Bob Dylan and Jeff Lynne...the greats! George Harrison said they all got together and wrote music then recorded it. In this particular song they were looking for a "hook" according to George and there were lots of boxes with HANDLE WITH CARE on them--that was the hook they needed! Thanks Jamel!

I had to laugh at your reaction when you heard Roy's voice, the second voice, you probably would of heard his song Pretty Woman, that song is played to death in numerous movies. But he has plenty more classics. The best part of listening to this song is listening to the mash up of so many different styles. The different twangs of country tuned guitars, the electric psychadelic and folk tuned guitars, the accoustic rock and roll strum. And their own unique voices for their chosen styles. It all somehow mixes perfectly.

Damn, it's been .. too many years. I remember when this came out. When my father came home SO excited about the new CD he had bought and he was a guy who rarely got excited. I've spent the next months listen to their album without end and I could still do it, because it's just that good. BTW. they've brought out a second album after Roy had passed on which Gary Moore contributed to She's My Baby, because he was neighbours with George Harrison. They needed a solo and someone to play it so George asked Gary, who went by the name Ken Wilbury

Thanks for the info on "Ken Wilbury". I just "discovered" Gary Moore (and Thin Lizzy) in 2020. He was talking about Peter Green. The number of great guitarists who played with TL and FM is amazing.
@saschaschneider6355
3 жыл бұрын
@@avlisk yeah, the string slingers really were exceptional with both bands. Green was nothing short of a genius. He and early FM were ahead of their time and it's a shame that they seem to be mostly forgotten. Lindsay Buckingham was great as well, his fingerstyle playing was beautiful. Very much underrated as both a guitarist and songwriter. Not as great as Green in my eyes but still one hell of a guitar player. And Moore, well, I'd say one of the very best guitarists of all times. Were there better Blues players? Yes. Were/are there better metal players? Yes. BUT: Moore was able to go toe to toe with any guitarist in any style and that makes him exceptional. Blues? Check, Rock? Check. Metal? Check. Jazz? Check. Fusion? Check. As for Thin Lizzy, yes they had really great guitarists. Moore, obviously, Snowy White, Scott Gorham, John Sykes, Vivian Campbell, true guitar heavyweights, all of them. I've seen Blackstar Riders as support for Judas Priest in 2018. That's basicallythe successor of TL - TL stayed together after Lynott's death and kept playing their original songs but decided not to write new ones out of respect for Lynott - and then decided to write new ones and reformed as Blackstar Riders. Long story only to say: the only good thing about them was Gorham. He was twice the age of the others and twice the rocker. BTW. Moore was in a band with Lynott before TL: Skid Row. And yes, that's the band the hair metal band fronted by Sebastian Bach has named itself after. Lynott and Moore were lifelong friends and have cooperated on some of Moore's songs as well, for instance Out In The Fields and Parisienne Walkways. And Moore has dedicated a few of his songs to Moore after the his passing.

The drummer -- considered a full-fledged member is the session drummer Jim Keltner who has been on countless hit songs for decades. Jamel -- you always do a sincere wonderful assessment. You speak with honesty in your voice & you're entertaining.

Everytime I think I found a favourite I find another gem. I have been listening to a LOT of Roy Orbison lately and pulled out my special addition CD/DVD Traveling Wilburys collection I bought with my Christmas money in 2002 or thereabouts. Wish I could have shared it with my Dad who was the one who indroduced me to each legend seperately and nearly flipped when they became this supergroup. Growing up in South Africa in the 80s, info wasn't easy to come by but my dad really went over and above to learn everything he could about these guys. Thanks for passing it on Dad. Hope you and the boys are enjoying a cold one and a loooong discussion about music wherever that may be
