Traveling Wilburys? What gives?


Hi all,

I just logged onto Amazon to purchase some music (good prices, no tax, free shipping, GREAT customer service) and "The Traveling Wilburys" came to mind as one of those cds that I just never got a round to buying 15 years ago.

Much to my surprise, I found that it's out of print. Can this be? I saw that there are some individuals selling used cds for $30 to $45.

It just seems odd that such a popular album (in its' day) would be out of print. Has it been released under another name? Is there some legal dispute over licensing and or royalties?

Any information would be appreciated.

On another note, I just picked up Nickel Creek's second CD at Target for $12 and was blown away. These kids are talented beyond their years. I've since ordered the debut album from Amazon and will be attending a Nickel Creek concert on Friday night in the small Central California town of Hanford (home of Vandersteen). Maybe I'll see Richard there?

ask somebody around here to copy it for you.

I got it. I hated it. Gave it away.

Yeah, I know I am in a minority..but still.....
Thanks guys.

Well, here goes. Is anyone willing to either make me a copy or sell it at a reasonable price ($15-20)?

I'd love to get it on LP, but I don't yet have a tt. That's next on the list, followed by adding a subwoofer.

Or does anyone have any concrete knowledge of whether or not it's going to be re-released?
I was channel surfing one night within the last week and came to rest on VH1 for "The End Of The Line" Wilbury video, after which they commented that after being out of print, it was scheduled to be re-released...I don't think they said when though...
Hi - If you like Nickle Creek, try the album "Quick" by Eddie From Ohio. Or, "Coctail Swing" by Rani Arbo & daisy mayhem. Bet 'ya love 'em.
Cheers,
