Traveling Wilburys Collection: worth buying?

If you already have the two Traveling Wilburys albums, should you bother with the generously hyped reissues, the new Traveling Wilburys Collection, released on Monday? Well, for about £14 in your supermarket/online, you get four extra audio tracks, five DVD tracks, and a short book. Worth buying, then? Maybe. Probably. Just.

If you didn’t buy the albums first time round - what were you thinking of? These vastly enjoyable good-time romps should be in the collection of any half serious rock fan.

The two Traveling Wilbury albums were cherished on initial release by Dylan fans as a sign that, after the multiple disappointments of the 1980s, Uncle Bob might not be quite ready for the scrap heap. Alongside Biograph, Oh Mercy and Bootleg Series vols 1-3, the Wilbury albums presaged a return to form.
