The Formation of The Traveling Wilburys - George Harrison

 


“I was having dinner with Jeff Lynne, he was having dinner with Roy Orbison and I said to Jeff ‘do you feel like coming along’ and he said ‘sure’. 


Roy Orbison said ‘well if you do something give me a call’. 


I went round to Tom Petty’s house to pick up my guitar which was at his house and he said ‘Oh I was wondering what I was going to do tomorrow’. 


And the meantime we were, with such short notice, I didn’t know of any studio that I could find that quickly. 


So I called Bob and he said ‘sure come on over’.”
