366 Artists In 366 Days : Day 248 Number 119 Traveling Wilburys

This is the only act in my countdown to feature each member in an additional (individual or band) post.
The Traveling Wilburys (or, as one customer put it, back in the late 80s at the London Virgin Megastore - The Wandering Wallabies...) comprised Nelson, Charlie, Otis, Lefty and Lucky, A.K.A. George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, Tom Petty, Roy Orbison and Bob Dylan.
The remaining members changed their names for their second album (Vol. 3) to Spike, Clayton, Muddy and Boo respectively.

This video features an array of cameos, including the lovely Fred Savage!
I'm a proud owner of one of the Traveling Wilburys 3/4 Gretsches. I believe there were only 100 made, and they all feature unique artwork. (Mine has the 'T' from the 'The'...)
