WILBURY TWIST 2007

Amazon.com is now featuring the new version of the Wilbury Twist video.  I guess that's what happens when you have scores of celebrities (with fees) in the original.  But, they even cut out the people on the floor dancing goofy at the end.  That made the video quite amusing.  Now, the Wilburys are just kinda hanging around on screen sometimes not knowing what to do.  Oh well...

WILBURYS PROMO CLIP

Another look at what's coming from the Traveling Wilburys Collection.  I presume this is a clip from the DVD documentary.  Now, I'm really excited for this!

WILBURYS ON THE WADIO

The BBC Radio 2 documentary on the Wilburys could have gone another hour.  It felt like Nelson is still among us.

I bust out laughing when Jeff said he bought 2 clavs on eBay.

Anyway, a very enjoyable program.  And we got to hear a little more Maxine.  The wait's almost over.

DANCE TONIGHT

Good to see Paul making good music videos still.  I'd love to see any of Jeff's and related music put to this kind of visual. Amazing.

WILBURYS DELUXE SET

A look now at the Deluxe edition of the upcoming Traveling Wilburys collection.

And now there are sound samples on Amazon. Now, I'm getting excited.

McCARTNEY'S SOLO CATALOG

Paul McCartney's entire solo catalog is finally joining the digital download world, but it appears, according to the press release, all of his solo albums will also be re-issued on CD.  This will apparently include his 1997 album Flaming Pie, which Jeff Lynne co-produced eight album tracks and one outtake.

Oh my god, that album was ten years ago.

BOULDERS (REMASTERED)

Pretty substantial news here because I know many of us are fans of this album.  Pre-order links at Amazon and FYE are going up for Roy Wood's 1973 LP Boulders.  Release date is apparently sliding to July 2 for the UK.

The remastered version will come from EMI, but at last check, the listings are not showing any bonus tracks.

A quick note on what seems to be popping up on track lists for the new Traveling Wilburys sets, the DVD in particular.  It's revealing that the video for Wilbury Twist will be a new version.

LEGACY

I just had to laugh.

They can design it, re-design it, re-design it again.... and still screw it up.

Apparently ELO had 35 albums.
