Most supergroups are a collection of egos, but the Travelling Wilburys were, IMHO as well as yours, an exception. A damn shame they never toured, as the chemistry they had in the studio would have worked wonders live.

Yea when I first heard them I was amazed. Actually I saw their video first "End of the line" right after it first came out. Till they released the recent box set I couldn't find it though. In my opinion the three CD set out now is worth the money just for that. Roy had died a few weeks before the video was shot. There's an empty rocking chair in his place. George was the best musician in The Beatles as far as I'm concerned. Paul and John could turn out lyrics but George was a great guitar player and a much more humble person from what I hear.
