Written by Jeff Lynne specifically for Roy it has a sad and lonely feel to it that only Orbison can convey with his vocals. Like they have found a new toy to play with.ДЇinally we get a solo Roy Orbison on vocals with вЂњNot Alone Any MoreвЂќ. That is what is so cool about band is it does feel they are all having so much fun. It has that classic Petty vibe and is another quick tempo song that feels light and like everyone is having a good time. Petty gets lead vocals on вЂњLast NightвЂќ with the help of Orbison.

It is rockabilly even though rockabilly wasnвЂ™t necessarily in at the time but it works on every level. The bass feels like a stand-up bass and the guitar tone sounds so vintage. Jeff Lynne on the vocals and the song has this old school 60вЂ™s rock vibe. вЂњRattledвЂќ is a quick tempo track with a great drum beat and bass groove. And they each take a little line at the end which keeps the song fun and happy sounding. The rest of the band is credited on vocals as well, but they are only there to add some harmonies and some color and texture to the song. It is has a nice feel to it and then Bob comes in sings and well, he doesnвЂ™t have the best vocals, but on this song they arenвЂ™t too bad. Next up is вЂњDirty WorldвЂќ which is another upbeat, stomping tempo. The song is a great opening track and sets the tone for the album perfectly. It has a great solo and some nice harmonica work by Bob. You hear all of them on the what I guess would be the chorus. Orbison has one of the smoothest voice in music and so distinct and original. On vocals, you start off with George and then Roy does a bridge and man, can that man sing.

It is a feel good rock track that has a peppy beat and overall a really cool vibe. The song went to #45 and was their most successful song. The first song they wrote and first single was вЂњHandle With CareвЂќ. It is an eclectic mix of Folk rock and country rock or just folk country or just rockвЂ¦whatever you want to call it. The cool thing is they do all share lead vocals on songs and some have only one singer and one even has all of them. Interestingly enough, the album credits give all the songs to each member even though in reality each song was written mostly by an individual with help from the others. Where do you think Chickenfoot got the idea to do the same thing 20+ years later. My copy is actually from the box set called The Traveling Wilburys Collection which consisted of both albums, Volume 1 and Volume 3 as well as a DVD of a history of the band with videos. Regardless, it was cool moment in music history. Selling over 3 million copies it is said that it revived the careers of Petty and Dylan, but really! I donвЂ™t know if that is true as they had never really gone away. Their debut album came out on Octoto massive critical acclaim and even garnered them a Grammy nomination. And the band came about because George Harrison needed a B-Side for his 1987 album, вЂCloud NineвЂ™ and he had asked them to help and one thing lead to another and here we are. (Tom), Otis Wilbury (Jeff) and Lucky Wilbury (Bob). In 1988, George Harrison, Roy Orbison, Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne and Bob Dylan joined forces and became the alter egos of The Traveling Wilburys вЂ“ Nelson Wilbury (George), Lefty Wilbury (Roy), Charlie T. In what could quite possibly be the greatest supergroup of all time, The Traveling Wilburys is made up of some of the most iconic singers/musicians in the business.

The winner, barely, was The Traveling Wilburys вЂTraveling Wilburys Volume 1вЂ™ which is one in my collection. It was a tie most of the way through between WeezerвЂ™s вЂVan WeezerвЂ™ and The Traveling Wilburys вЂTraveling Wilburys Volume 1вЂ™. AlrightвЂ¦You Picked It! And this one was really, really close.
