The album sounds just like you would expect the artists who recorded it should sound. The different songs sound like their composers from the group. The Harrison songs sound like he wrote it, etc. It is a new album with a vintage sound from these artists. It is really enjoyable.

not the songs I thought it had, my mistake, will get rid of it. Quality is good, if you're talking about the plastic and the recording quality, and not the songs themselves. I didn't like most of the songs. On the other hand, the songs on the cd/dvd set are amazing. That's what I was looking for, a copy for the car.

This is a great mix of songs by a super-group formed in the late '80's early '90's with members like Tom Petty, Bob Dylan, Jeff Lynne, with the late George Harrison and Roy Orbinson filling out the roster as well. If you are a fan of any of these artists other work you need to check this out. Unfortunately, this CD is out of print but thanks to Ebay, you can find anything. As of this writing though there are plans to release a box set of all 3 volumes that the band produced. It's due out sometime in the summer of 2007. So, if you can't locate this, look for the box set.
Here's a challenge- write a review on an album that you imagine everybody with even half-a-brain would find to be an absolute essential(the album, not the review). It's been said over and over and over that this was a once in a life-time alignment of the heavens, and that's a fact. If you are of a certain age, or a certain level of musical appreciation, just a quick listen to any of the tracks on this one and it dawns on you why these gents have been so loved and listened to over the years... it's because each man stands on his own as a force behind music, and when they stood together, and played together, the Wilburys became a force of Nature. And that force was having a rocking good time! Extended listening only makes it better. God rest the ones who've gone on, and blessings on those remaining. Thanks, guys. Well done.Read full review
The traveling Wilburys were unique, they were five top name artist that got together by chance, and changed the face of the music world. They recorded their first album in 1988 and their second one in 1990 (both are out of print everywhere except England) and you have to watch out for the Russin CD Maxx Bootleg........because they are out there in huge numbers. There is only ONE legal CD that is sold that is still in production, and you must order it from a record store in England or buy the Used original 1988-90 ones sold on e-bay, and again you have to watch out and ask questions. I have bought what looks like the real 1988 CD, only to have it arrive and find out it was a CD-R copy in an inkjet printed front cover. Over all if you are a Wilburys fan....and want a new sealed cd ....plan on watching for the release this fall (2007) when the newly remastered vol 1 and the Vol 3 is release on the anniversary of Roy Orbisons death (Dec 1988) It contains the origianl songs remastered plus several Bonus songs that were extras fro the Vol 1 and are now added as Bonus material.Read full review

You can assemble an elite or super group of artists, athletes, scientists etc... and not necessarily get the best of everyone in the group. Need proof? New York Yankees for one example... But with The Traveling Wilburys we get the best from the best. They bring it, they blend it, they love it and deliver it to us void of style clash and ego interference. Great collection of songs... Simply their best...
If you like any of the artists in this group, you will love this Disc. This is as far as I know the last recording Roy Orbison did before he passed. It has the very distinct sounds of the artists. George Harrison's giutars, Roy's haunting voice, Bob Dylan's strange song writing, and Tom Petty unique music and voice style. You can't go wrong with this CD.
This CD is out of print and no longer available at any store for any price. The music speaks for itself to any classic rock afficianado, with the talents of George Harrison, Jeff Lynn, Roy Orbison, Tom Petty, and Bob Dylan. Pretty tough to beat these icons when they decide to colaborate for the sake of pure enjoyment and the love of music. E-bay affords the opportunity for anyone who either didn't have the foresight when this was originally released or for whatever other reason that they didn't get this incredible collection of songs, to purchase it and fill that chasm in their collection with the best of classic rock and roll.
