I don't know if this is the right forum for this question, however, I have a need to know. Does anyone know the names of the members of The Traveling Wilburys? I wonder why they keep it such a deep dark secret. It doesn't appear on the album covers , nor can we find it on the internet. Please will the musically informed clue us in. Thanks

http://www.wilburys.info/ I went to www.google.com (best search engine on the web) and this came up. Hope it is what you are seeking. Jo

I love vol 1 and had a cassette tape (yes, believe it or not) until it was used up. Wish I had the cd.

Roy Orbison's estate has put a freeze on all of the Wilbury recordings. They have effectively shut down release of any new material and the original CD is now a collector's item. Ya'll that got 'em treasure 'em!

Rats! I knew I should have bought it years ago when I first heard the songs play on The Nashville Network! I thought they were awesome!

Their songs are really good fun - everyone should give them a listen if possible. The cd's are very hard to come by these days, but can still be purchased on ebay, half.com, and other places where used stuff is sold. I picked up Vol. 3 on half.com for $9.99 - saw it used at Wherehouse Records just the other day for $49.99!!
