Traveling Wilburys Tweeter And The Monkey Man clip

[@Peter-vn6gl]

The amount of talent is staggering. Once in a lifetime. How lucky we were.

[@cbes-lr5hs]

I know❤

[@BillSparks-mv6md]

I 👍agreed

[@glennbrymer4065]

How Damned Lucky we have been, to have lived & listened to all this incredible music! I remember it all! From the early 50s, Elvis, Jerry Lee, Buddy Holly, throughout the 60s & 70s. The years rolled by, more good music and it is still going on.

Probably the greatest super group ever, everyone a legend.

[@robertrodes1546]

Well, Cream was up there. :)

[@grantross2609]

there are a number of contenders tbh ! guess you're guided by your choice of musak tho......

[@sharonklinger912]

Well said

[@Cosmo-Kramer]

@@robertrodes1546 How was Cream a supergroup?

[@mikemahoney6840]

Sounds like a Dylan and Jeff Lynn collaboration

[@sandraparrill5816]

No group will ever be as cool as these guys. Cream of the crop.

[@petersimson9519]

i fully agree

[@johnsmith100]

The actual Cream were a better Cream :)

[@ericmcandrew6099]

For sure

[@teodorosv3444]

The Beatles!

[@padgedunbar9400]

Only Bob Dylan could have written this. Fantastic song, fantastic supergroup. What an ensemble of pure talent. Sadly, only 2 of them left.

[@slavisajelenkovic7398]

2 of them... like tweeter and the monkey man...

[@10995]

Tom Petty helped write it

[@James-wy6py]

Who’s credited with the lyrics?

[@padgedunbar9400]

As far as I can remember, on the album it said for each song "written by The Traveling Wilburys". I don't think there was any individual credit, apart from Jeff Lynne and George Harrison as producers (under their Wilbury pseudonyms). My guess though is the lead vocalist on each song was probably the lyricist, and the lyrics in Tweeter And The Monkey Man are very Dylan-like, so I'd feel pretty strongly that he wrote it. It's only my guess though, and I stand corrected.

[@boogar2960]

Both Tom Petty and Bob Dylan wrote the song. Bob Dylan got credit for writing most of it though.

[@bretbailey8375]

To have been a fly on the wall during the making of this album!! God, the stories! The talent! Just mindblowing!! RIP TP, GH and RO.

[@professorsasha9100]

This song needs its own feature length movie. It's that awesome.

[@Donna-k8n6s]

I was thinking the same thing ❤

[@archibaldcunningham2569]

This is one of the best songs ever recorded. Masterpiece. What a band!

[@nelsonx5326]

Could be. Really great song.

[@shanedarcy361]

There are soooo many Dylsn songs that are up there, but ( in more recent years) Hurricane gets me. Same intensity, and so well structured.

[@sefghimassi8600]

What a treat to hear really great pop musicians like these. Makes you want to cry when you hear the rubbish around today. Long live the Wilbury legend.

[@Dunkel824]

Da hast du wohl recht! Heute nur noch Schrott! Das war alles „handgemachte Musik“ !

[@thomashourie7740]

Headstones is Superior

[@danielgurney5264]

Here here 🫶

[@Msfiona69]

Ditto to that.. The Wilburys were the best group on the planet

[@katharinenoble1682]

I guess I'll go to Florida to get myself some sun.... ain't no more opportunity here, everything else being done. Amen.

[@avavincent9481]

Another CD my son borrowed, never to been seen again. All that talent together!

[@carmenbrown3437]

Bob dylan sang most of the song. I can't imagine what it would be to have Jeff lynn and george harrisson and all the rest in the same room playing. I loved the Travelling Woolbury's. It's all right. Even if the sun don't shine. We're going to the end of the line. You don't have to be ashamed of the car you drive at the end of the line. I'm just happy to be alive.

[@alexshkoditch4593]

Just in case there are no Springsteen fans watching this, the lyrics "name drop" the tittles of 8 Bruce Springsteen songs and the story takes place in New Jersey. That is not an accident or a coincidence, but more of an inside joke.

[@johnhrehov4720]

Right, I always thought this was a dig on Bruce!

[@atatterson6992]

Yep, because Springsteen would rather smoke B Hussein O's pole and talk downnthe peoppe amd nation that gave him indescribable fame and fortune. A real tool ofnthe establishment. I wonder if the Boss swallows? I heard Big Mike does...

[@karenbarker3470]

Its pretty mean. Tweeter was a boy scout Stolen car Across the Jersey line Mansion on the hill Thunder road State trooper Factory And then he says Tweeter was a girl!

[@karenbarker3470]

I wonder why Dylan would so viciously attack Springsteen. Maybe he thought Bruce was a phony. Bruce talked a lot in his Broadway show about how he wrote about racing in the street and couldn't drive. Or that he never really had a job aside from performing. Bob would have been seeing Bruce living in LA hanging at Frank Sinatra as house.

[@alexshkoditch4593]

​@@karenbarker3470 It wasn't so much an attack as it was a joke. The lyrics were written by Dylan and Petty very quickly in a single sit-down session after which it was immediately recorded. There is a documentary on the making of this album that shows Bob and Tom off in a side room scribbling down the lyrics, and Harrison saying they were giggling as they wrote them. Note that some of the references are song titles from Springsteen's Nebraska album (Mansion on the Hill, State Trooper), an all acoustic album that was widely praised but didn't sell much and 1 was an unreleased (at that time) out take song Lions Den. Since many of references were not obvious to the casual listener that only knew Born in the USA or Born to Run, the joke flew over many people's heads. Note that Dylan appeared on stage with Bruce at a Shea stadium concert in the early 2000's, I doubt there was any annimosity.

[@sheilawinston4739]

How fortunate to have them in my lifetime! The best of the best!

[@johnsmith100]

When George is “just” yet another member of a band, you know it’s a hellova good one :)

[@isthisbetter]

"Yet another" but the founder. He may of described himself as this but without him we wouldn't of had these bangers!

[@johnsmith100]

@@isthisbetter Agreed :)

[@glennjelich3174]

Sadly only two still remain.....the way this clip pays homage to the incredible Orbos with his guitar on the rocking chair and his photo in the frame really show the camaraderie between these incredible musicians.

[@davidfarmer2571]

TRUE AS RAIN!!❤

[@michaelmonahan577]

Jersey Represented 👍 Pure Gold, What a Legendary Super Group ❤️🙏🏻

[@davidhenrywall8619]

Great song great band. You can't beat the travelling wilbury, s. Great music

[@charlycolis9811]

LOVED them from the time I bought the LP back in the 80ies!!! Listened to it until today - for 40 years!!! NEVER gets old!!! Guess it's something to do with the production from Jeff Lyne (ELO) and the greatness of his fellow musicians!!!

[@TimMitchell-bc7mt]

Your right my friend thats music ❤

[@bernd4883]

I still own both LP's since the 80's... ;)

[@kilimanjaro3517]

This song deserves a billion views. Its the first time listening to this song and am so glad to have found it. Bob Dylan and the rest of Travelling Wilbury gang, feel blessed to be listening to their songs. It’s what music sounds like.

[@Peter-vn6gl]

Good music, anyway!

[@edfulginiti8798]

Love this song!!! Wilbury magic. 👍

[@user-dk8yy2td7g]

God this song man, my dad is a huge Dylan fan and we grew up with his music playing everywhere. This album though, this is on the soundtrack of my life and this song in particular just feels like childhood, like home. I can picture it like a movie in my head. The best group to ever be assembled hands down. I love to imagine that producing this record was so much fun for them all. It will forever be playing in my life, I can’t wait for my kids to be old enough to enjoy listening to this music together, a lifelong gift, thank you Bob, Tom, Roy, George and Jeff.

[@artistryinstone5576]

Love this song . A Canadian band called the Headstones have been doing a heavier cover of this song for about 30 something years .

[@paulbfields8284]

Tom asked Roy for his autograph when they were first meeting.. I think that’s hilarious… but also I think Tom was serious .. he should be.. Roy is the shit

[@daveb6214]

This is a Group of legends , shame ,Roy, George and Tom are no longer here. We will Never see the likes of these guys ever again ,mores the Pity !! Godspeed Roy ,George and Tom Fly High hopefully you'll find your Purple Haze !

[@BigEarn216]

Don't know why but this song is so good

[@styxcreek]

Because it’s written and performed by some of the greatest artists ever is my guess

[@alexeilindes7507]

Its genuis...

[@jimgoodykoontz322]

It's my favorite song on this album, and that's saying something.

[@buckchile614]

None of the others could have pulled off lead vocal as well.

[@mollyhall2954]

@@buckchile614 Over and over in my long life I've heard people say that Dylan can't sing and then I hear him mesmerize us with a song like this one and I don't even argue with those people now. Their loss if they don't hear what we hear--and what the best in rock and roll have always heard in his voice and words.

[@jimlutz8092]

If there's ever been a situation that I wish I could have witnessed, or been a part of, it would have been to be on hand when Dylan and Petty sat down, smoked a few joints, and wrote Tweeter and the Monkey Man together.

[@careytony999]

That’d be cool 👌

[@Doggie-m3y]

The term “Super Group” cannot even come close to describing the Wilbury’s!

[@janettshirleyguerraaburto2827]

Maravilloso grupo, no logro entender tanto talento junto¡¡ que buenos tiempos, re descubriendo a los mejores músicos de todos los tiempos, desde Antofagasta, Chile 2025¡¡¡

23 years old from Scotland. My grandad used to play Bob Dylan when I was younger. Love this song and it will get passed down to generations 🎵 timeless classic

[@immaterialimmaterial5195]

Bob and his mates really got something very special here with this haunting, film noir-ish song! Love the phrasing, pacing, lyrical content and the drama of this song!

[@isthisbetter]

"and his mates"? Show a bit of respect... Without George, this group would have never gotten together.

[@thardyryll]

Remarkable work, and not only because it is possible to understand what Dylan is singing.

[@russelljdj]

The greatest of any "Super Group" ever assembled in my humble view. Plus for my money the best album of the 80s.

[@classicrockfan8034]

Jeff Lynne (ELO) is the best producer ever!

[@Dunkel824]

Musik von „Könnern“ einfach nur schön! Hatte das Glück Tom Petty bei seinem letzten Konzert in Hamburg zu sehen!

[@leannewolf-webber3075]

This is a fantastic treat to see this video! Don't find this much talent in a group playing just for themselves these days. So happy to have recorded video & audio of these 5 guys together!!

[@joshkarena3058]

Sadly only Bob Dylan and Jeff Lynn are the last survivors of this group of men just enjoyed each other's company bringing out some fantastic songs like this one.😅

[@teri9443]

Wow I literally just said the same exact thing 😢

[@Scrollermania1963]

Actually, Jim Keltner, 82 yrs old, Played Drums, on Both session Albums...is still alive also .. The guys wanted to include him, as a Wilbury, but Jim wasn't interested.... So they called him: "Buster Sideberry"....lol

[@AngelaGuerry]

Indeed. Saw Petty and The Heartbreakers in 1976. First tour. Me and my dog's last concert was ZZ Top's last tour when Dusty was with us. I'd say RIP, but Dusty, rock 'em.

[@AngelaGuerry]

I saw over 400 shows of my rock bands and loved every one.

[@dennymac4198]

Incredible amount of cool in that band

[@r0esheen]

Glad I grew up on music like this, thanks dad!

[@Amysmann]

This is astonishing. There is such a relaxed atmosphere, they seem as though they went to middle school together and have known each other all along. Peace & Psilocybin

[@robertogutierrez2897]

This song has always reminded me of one of my other favorite Dylan tunes: Black Diamond Bay. The narrative is just so intertwined and interesting. Only Dylan can make something so convoluted so much fun to listen to.

[@danielorlando8172]

I sing this song to my dogs regularly. We call it: ' all the way to monkeyman'. Rhythm and footsteps with the human voice and 30 minutes the pups are ready for a nap and I am secure in the knowledge the house will not have a mess. Thanks guys for the soundtrack while walking the dogs

[@richardblock2458]

Dylan skewers the Boss. Priceless.

[@winonamassingill7895]

My personal favorite ❤️ The End of the Line. My husband and 3 kids lived in Muleshoe Texas from 1965 until 1989. My husband had commissary privileges at Cannon Air Force Base in Clovis New Mexico so we went over to Clovis at least once or twice every month. Norman Petty had his recording studio there and recorded numerous other artists songs including Roy Orbison and his band and Buddy Knox and The Rhythm Orchids. When my kids and I moved to Fritch Texas from Muleshoe Buddy Knox’s sister was my son’s fourth grade teacher 👩‍🏫, Verdy Brown. 😊😊😊😊
