I hope Tom Petty contributes to it. I've been so impressed with his interviews and the Tom Petty biography I picked up. He really speaks and writes well.

The dvd is fantastic in the set. never seen that footage of them before, Roy seemed so layed back about things. Looked nice where they were recording as well!
It's been a Hard Days Night & i've been working like a dog!
The Traveling Wilburys Collection is a runaway hit with music fans this summer.
Following its number one positions on the UK album chart, IRMA album chart, Australian album chart, Amazon's pre-order and sales list, and Apple's iTunes, the collection debuted at number nine and number one on the Billboard album and digital album charts, respectively.
This is an amazing accomplishment considering that the Deluxe edition was out of stock on nearly every major online distributor's website (e.g. Amazon, Best Buy, etc.) just one day after its release, and had very limited retail distribution (read no Starbucks displays). What's even more amazing is that this is a three-disc collection.
Although, you must admit, selling music at Starbucks is an excellent idea that has worked well for Ray Charles, Bob Dylan, Paul McCartney, and the Police, among others. How else can you get music in front of over 40 million customers every week?
Also, this:
Traveling Wilburys Collection (Deluxe Edition): Since the set was first offered on Amazon.com, it rocketed to the number one position on its pre-order and sales list, followed by a number one ranking on Apple's iTunes.
It seems that Rhino underestimated demand (at least for the Deluxe Edition) and has had to short pre-orders to distributors. If you're one of the lucky 50,000 to have already received the set, congratulations for breaking my heart. I'm still looking for mine.
Billboard: This article gives some specific numbers for US charts:
The Traveling Wilburys Collection, a box set chronicling the all-star group's history, sold a reported 77,300, to follow at #9.
The rest of the top 10 is populated by repeat customers, including, at #3, Paul McCartney's Memory Almost Full, which sold more than 106,500 units during its second week in stores.

A bummer that the book is expected to be quite expensive.
Traveling Wilburys is #3 in the UK right now!! Amazing how in its third week is still on the Top 3, and also with two new big releases in the UK (Editors-Kelly Clarkson)!!
I don't smoke, I don't drink, I don't eat trash... I work out hard everyday and have a healthy life. And I'm proud of it.
