The Traveling Wilburys on making Vol 3 without Roy Orbison (1990)

[@camlendrim7609]

George looks so good in this interview. Don’t ever remember seeing him smile so much, have so much fun and seem so happy as he did during the many Wilbury interviews and videos.

[@purplebrit]

It's probably George loving working with these great singer/songwriters and musicians. He respected them and they respected him. He didn't get respect a lot of the time from Paul or John, when he was in the Beatles.

[@KwikD1987]

Even in this interview he don't laughed as others peoplea would do in his situations. But you see he loves playing,and be in THIS BAND,HIS BUDDYS. Every of this characters are,is,was,be when you separate them... they greatest musicians of our time. Every one is outstanding and then they collaborated... puhhh hard to beat this formation Sorry for my bad english Greetz from Germany

[@lawrencetaylor4101]

I agree with you that he looks great in this interview. But you should watch the tribute to Carl Perkins that he organized with Dave Edmunds. I thought he was going to injure Dave with his smile it was so wide.

Greatest supergroup ever

[@stereoheaven11]

cant understand why the guy from ELO was in it

[@CB-xr1eg]

@@stereoheaven11 Why wouldn't he be? He was friends with George, Roy & Tom,, produced albums for them, and he was a good musician/songwriter.

[@Hexon66]

@@CB-xr1eg Yeah, definitely. The least recognizable name perhaps, but massively talented, and integral to the production of the project.

[@CB-xr1eg]

@@Hexon66 Exactly, he also produced the Wilbury albums, and wrote/sang on them too. I think the least recognizable name would be the drummer who hardly gets mentioned, Jim Keltner. he wasn't officially a Wilbury but he was on the albums.

[@petegasper2806]

Jim Keltner was Georhe Harrisons drummer from 1973 untill he died. He was even in the Bangladesh concert in 1971 as George did not trust the heavily drinking Ringo Star. The next album had Jim Keltner playing on it or you can say he was Georges drummer since 1971 as They released an album from the concert. Jim Keltner even left on of his drum sets in The Friar Park studio as he knew he would come there all the time and it was too much work to ship it back to US. In George Harrisons 120 room castle Friar park the best studio in England was located. Many groups came there to record their music, usually living in the lodges around the castle. There were 16 houses located on the promises and the enormous castle George lived in which is the most beatiful home any rock musician has ever had with 250 000 Square meter garden. Or their was actually 7 gardens on the property. That castle snd its gardens must be worth billions of Dollars by now.

[@StephenMcCarthy-iq3gn]

Without a doubt, George was playing with four guys that really appreciated him.

[@bill-fk7tl]

Hopefully he appreciated them more since he was third best

[@danfoss1535]

They appreciated his immense talent that made it easier for them

[@stevens5541]

​@@bill-fk7tlGeorge was the best then Roy then Dylan and Jeff are fairly even....petty is a complete nobody and it's a disgrace he is there and only ruins the songs when he sings or contributes in any way.

[@cowsongs]

It's funny to hear George say that part of the magic was this attitude of 'we don't really give a damn' that made it fun. Ironically, all of these guys give BIG damn. They put their best efforts into these songs. It's the weight of the music business being off their backs that makes this great music possible.

[@tedparkman3111]

Absolutely correct! This was their life, music. They gave a damn alright and thank god they did!

[@Hexon66]

I get what you're saying, but I think the point is that quality is intrinsic for the true artist. And you're right, the 'don't give a damn' is about industry or commercial expectations. In layman's terms, they love their jobs, but the work is not drudgery.

[@marrop2760]

The recording of album 1 with Roy Orbison is a good watch. All the guys looked up to Roy, couldn’t believe he was in the band…he had the biggest voice there. It must have been so sad when he passed away. And surely took the wind out of their sails for a while

Jim was never officially a Wilbury, more like a session drummer.

[@Hexon66]

To be fair, who knows what NBC cut. Don't know if the guys would have mentioned him, I suspect they would have, if they'd remembered. But the name probably wouldn't have meant much to NBC execs or the Today Show's audience anyway.

I immediately went online and found an excellent copy and bought that.

[@danalawton2986]

Not sure who started it Col. Parker, Liz Taylor, or someone before them, but the idea that not giving interviews makes you more in demand and mysterious is sad. There are a few entertainers that have done almost no interviews, Dylan being one of them, which in the long run will be unfortunate for those interested in him years from now. Elvis did hardly any interviews, never appeared on Carson and such, but he has hundreds of videos of his performances. Elvis lives on strongly due to all of his recorded performances. I guess my point is... if you are a performer, record it and don't shy away from interviews... decades from now people will be interested.

[@Hexon66]

I understand what you're saying, but to be honest, Dylan's 1965 San Francisco interview is all we ever need! I love Dylan, and probably have learned more about his life and loves than I ever wanted to, but I don't really care about artists doing interviews to shill product. (I'd never seen *this* until today!). And I think Dylan, specifically, has been pretty clear that he's *not* going to explain meanings of songs (and if he does you can't trust that's just not making stuff up!). The music is the legacy, and future generations will find quality. And if they don't, it's their loss for not looking hard enough.
