To think Jeff Lynne, the one I knew the least about as a kid, turned out to be my favorite and a musical genius after I discovered ELO.

[@subhashxrecord3131]

Ya I also learned about him through TW a decade ago listened to that 76 album for the first time and re discovered living thing: that was on rock radio for years never knew it was ELO//

[@subhashxrecord3131]

It's a living thing beedaleedaleedalee What a terrible thing to lose//

[@moistmike4150]

Jeff Lynne had more music in his heart than any other rock/pop artist of the last 50 years. If that makes me a fanboi, then so be it.

[@arfermo853]

He was part of The move aswell 1970 to 1972 with roy wood

[@timwright4263]

I worshipped ELO when I was a teenager. They were a band that could have come from anywhere in the world. Now imagine my surprise when I discovered they came from my home town.

[@jimmymac63]

Dylan and Lynne are the only ones left...I don't think we will ever see a group like this again. I am glad I was alive during this time! Great music, and better times!

[@abc-bu7nr]

Don't forget Jim "Sidebury" Keltner still drumming along

[@danielbell4007]

Tom’s genuine sadness talking about Roy is heartbreaking. We often put these great artists on a pedestal, forgetting that they are real people with real relationships. And now Tom is gone too.

[@WeaponsEducation]

To think they are mostly all gone is heartbreaking. Thanks God they made this music.

Yep, choked me right the hell up.

[@theguitarman4440]

i seenJeff Lynne many times when he was in Idle Race at our local night spot.he lived in Shard End Birmingham about half a mile from where i lived.many times going round our housing estate in there battered old van with Idle Race etched on the side.such great great times.what a bloidy music genius he is

[@joycejeffries7465]

[@thomasmarthinussen8978]

Let's not forget the great session drummer, Jim Keltner, participating on at least the first one, maybe also the second. A legendary session drummer, making a name for himself in the 70s and 80s but actually starting off as member of the obscure Los Angeles 60s Popsike band M2 Squared!

[@markfcoble]

Aces!

[@chrisfournier6144]

One of my favourite drummers ever. Understated but unique to every song. I especially enjoy his backing on Ry Cooder’s work!

So last year I had Chemo and Radiation for cancer - so far so good - and one line in this song rings so true .. "Don't have to be ashamed of the car I drive, just glad to be here, happy to be alive ......

I was given maybe 10 years (maybe) when I got Lupus. That was 7/1985. Now I have congestive heart failure...let's see how this goes. But that line is so true. I let nothing bother me. Glad you are still breathing too. I've loved George since the 60's.

[@McFlySwatter]

I've never cared about possessions either. My only hope is that when its my time, I'll have my kids and family around me. I want to be surrounded by the things I _really_ care about. Wishing you health and happiness!

[@cwsingerjr8805]

The key to this band is that they didn't care except to have fun.

[@mervynsullivan]

Roy Orbison was blessed with that voice.

[@mayflowerlash11]

It will never happen again. So much musical talent singing into one microphone. Starting with George Harrison, then Roy Orbison pops into view, then Bob Dylan and Tom Petty chime in together, can it get any better? Oh yes it can, finally Jeff Lynne appears. And I think Ringo Starr was there out of camera shot. Such stellar talent around one microphone.

[@thomasgeschke9553]

Jim Keltner, not Ringo, but still incredible talent all around

[@judyspaulding4141]

Love Roy's talent. I thank this band for giving him back to us. Fun times!

Maybe the greatest gathering of legends❤️

[@iainmackenzieUK]

The way he holds himself as an artist and human is a gift

[@kungfew1396]

I can't count how many times I was depressed and after playing End of the line I felt a lot better, the whole album is therapy for me.

[@cvbabc]

God I miss Petty. He's the only 'stranger' I've shed tears over the news of their passing. Sometimes I feel I don't have the right to grieve because I didn't know him, but I can't help it. It's not fair, all he did was make people happy with his music. R.I.P. Tom.

[@norahporter]

I second that emotion...

[@nelsonnelson9101]

Clint Beck if you dug good music my friend guarantee he is not upset at all. She'd those tears, truthfully I dropped a few myself......

[@JamesWSmith-sj2zg]

No matter what age, where you are, who you are at the time, Tom's music travels with you. Very few can hold that title. Salute to Petty.

[@patrickfriel7957]

A stranger is just a friend we ain't met yet

[@dalecrowe7757]

Shed a few myself, "Damn the Torpedoes" was a major part of the soundtrack of my youth. It resonated for a young man growing up in the sticks, caught between country and western, rock and new wave. I still bang out "Yer So Bad" on my flat top every now and then and disturb the neighbors with what I refer to as "singing".

And Mike Campbell is greatly under appreciated. His guitar skills are insanely gifted.

[@thomasmarthinussen8978]

As a song, Handle With Care is just amazing and has that solid Folk Rock groove to it with tasteful musicianship and heartfelt vocals. The entire Cloud Nine album by George was a top notch effort and got the ball REALLY rolling with the formation of Traveling Wilburyes and their two superb albums.

[@thetompettyproject]

I think it's trendy to say that All Things Must Pass is your favourite George Harrison record, but for me it's definitely Cloud Nine. Just so much fun and so exquisitely produced.

These men were a happenstance; a serendipitous super group without even trying to be one. Organic genius'. Tom was correct: there was no replacing Roy.

No egos. All about fun and friendship. Just the way it should be.

[@deborahlindberg4786]

i never cease to be amazed at how these “mega stars” in the music world were so genuine. so respectful and kind to each other. they were overtly encouraging, supportive and engaging with one another. every interview i have ever seen i have been so impressed with the gentle souls that seemed to permeate the Traveling Wilbury’s. just some incredible musicians, no ego, enjoying the magical evolution that became the Wilbury’s. so sad that Roy, George and now Tom Petty have died. Seeing him 15+ times in concert, he had that warmth in everything he did. I can’t help but imagine what that angelic choir sounds like today ♥️😇 thanks for this upload/post. it totally warmed my heart with great memories. ♥️😉♥️😇

[@elgenetiamzon1062]

[@beverlysaletta1104]

I agree, they are mega stars and yet they are don't see it that way.They are respectful because that's who they are, good people. Such humility ! 💗

[@jackistevens4684]

Well this is my take on The Wilburys....this band fell together much like the Heartbreakers did. In each case, the guys FIT together; in each case there was a huge amount of talent that came together; and in each case, music was made that the world fell in love with. Almost, in each case, like it was supposed to be that way. I wish to thank EACH and every member of both bands for their contributions .....

[@777jones]

They weren’t just “mega stars,” they were music geniuses. They respected each other’s talent.

The under appreciated less known Jeff Lynne ironically is biggest legend in this group. They are all legends, but Jeff (ELO) was on genius level. Him and Brian Wilson of the beach boys created some of the best tunes ever.

[@vambo13257]

Jeff did some great things but calling him the biggest legend in this group is crazy

[@kurtmorris454]

I agree but I would put ABBA's Benny Andersson and Bjourn Ulvaeus and Freddy Mercury and Brian May of Queen up there with him.

[@MrFloKop]

You can't say that when a Beatle and Bob Dylan were in the band.

[@eBenkyou]

Sure I can, George was part of a team and he was an essential part of the beatles but not the genius....and bob was a genius at lyrics...but jeff is a genius at everything. not to take anything away from the others, but Jeff is so humble that most don't even know who he is, but know the others.

[@leonardobrien]

@@kurtmorris454 don't forget Andy Gibb

[@glassonion5474]

I still tear up about how they came together and left their egos outside. They honoured Roy. And sadly now we only have 3. Keltner keeps to himself, Jeff has no ego at all and Bob is only a man of words in song. In the late 80s they were considered old rockers and look what they achieved as old rockers! They were brilliant and espoused a new generation of followers. We are lucky that in my generation we were blessed with the music their friendship created.

[@johnqpublic691]

Jeff Lynne is a giant in the music industry and few people know about his superior genius behind many songs.

Glad I stumbled onto this interview. I have been a huge Tom Petty fan since I saw him on his first US tour back in the early 1970's.

It is worse now when I remember the great music from not only Roy, but also George and Tom. RIP Wilburys.

This time period in music was very special to me. Everyone of these guys were killing it!! Jeff had Armchair Theatre out, Georges had Cloud Nine, Roy had Mystery Girl, Bob had Oh Mercy out and Tom had Full Moon Fever and then they had this Wilbury’s album. Very special time for each of these peoples. They had an unspoken power structure really. If they had been like the rappers and had all formed a label together they would have been billionaires off of their material alone. I was a teenager when this happened and I had all of those tapes at the same time. Thanks for all the beautiful music guys!!
